Ivey Business School Technicality?

In the University of Western Ontario, Ivey School of Business it's a 2+2 program. So in the first two years we do whatever we want then in the 3rd and 4th year we are in Ivey and do business.

That being said, in high school you can apply for AEO status and if you get accepted than during those 2 years of doing whatever you want as long as you maintain 80% you're guaranteed into Ivey.

My question is, if I put "Richard Ivey School of Business - Candidate for Bachelor of Arts in Honors Business Administration" on my resume during my first 2 years at Western, would that be considered a lie? Or should I put Western Ontario then just say I have AEO status for Ivey?

Personally, I consider saying I'm a candidate and AEO status the same thing, but correct me if i'm doing something extremely wrong.

 

Don't say you're in Ivey. The people who know what it is, will know you're lying and you may get dinged. The people who don't know what it is, won't care.

Say you go to Western and state your current program. You can put down that you're an AEO in a bullet under Western.

 

^ I highhhly doubt you'd get dinged over that. If someone put down, Ivey HBA expected 2016, it'd take an idiot to not connect the dots, and if they did, I'm sure they'd understand what you mean. Put AEO but any bank/guy willing to ding you over putting "ivey" when you're really "AEO" isn't someone you want to work for cas they're probably retarded

 

I've seen it been done before...AEO didn't exist a few years ago, and talking to friends who are alumni of the program, they're always annoyed by 1st/2nd years saying they're in Ivey.

As an AEO, you're not there yet. So it is much better to say you're at Western, but state that you have AEO status. This way you don't run the risk of alumni calling you out on not being in Ivey, yet you still show that you're a relatively smart kid and chances are you will be in Ivey eventually.
