Ivey if you plan on remaining in Canada. Stern for everywhere else (assuming you want to enter finance)

 

Canadian schools give you an excellent return on your investment and Ivey does have a fantastic reputation and great placement on Bay Street and even Wall Street (in comparison to other Canadian bschools). With that being said, I have a bone to pick with NYU Stern. I think it is an overrated, overpriced school for kids that just worked way too hard in highschool.Overall however, Stern is better.

 

So I'd have a bigger advantage if I graduate from Stern than Ivey when applying to big IB's?

Also, I've been searching around but couldn't get much info on this, how much will 4 years at Stern cost in total for international students? I imagine it's higher than Ivey's domestic fees of 150k for 4 years.

 

tuition alone at Stern is 46,000 a year. So 4 years at Stern is more expensive. And then you factor in housing which is anywhere from $12,000-$18,000. And I believe there are additional registration fees for International Students. So I would budget about 62,000 a year for Stern.

Ivey does NOT cost 150k for 4 years. Your first two years you can study whatever you want, and only your last two years will be at Ivey. I would budget a total of 15k+15k+35k+35k=100k for the 4 years at Western.
