Class of 2027
University of Waterloo (Bachelor of Science)
I had reached a point in my career where I thought "I'm too young to settle." DeGroote was the push I needed, when I needed it, to open so many more doors, connections, and friendships, and I am forever grateful!

Why DeGroote?
DeGroote felt like the right fit for someone like me who never saw themselves going into business. It does a great job of meeting you where you’re at in your career and getting you up to speed. The co-op opportunities and amazing, tight-knit community are the other reasons why I love DeGroote.
What piece of advice would you give to anyone considering doing their MBA at DeGroote?
I would say you’re about to make one of the greatest decisions of your life! At least, that’s what it has been for me. I knew I would learn a lot academically in this program, but for anyone entering I would say prepare to go through personal and professional changes (for the better) that you never thought you were capable of! The key is to have an open mind and say yes to everything.
