The average number of students per MBA class in Canada is 41-60 students ranging from a low of about 5 to a high of approximately 240. In general, perhaps not surprisingly, the larger schools possess the greater concentration, on average, of students per class. For example, Queen's University, University of Toronto, and University of Western Ontario, which are among the traditional elite business schools in Canada, average 64-114 students per class, ranging from a low of 60 to a high of 240. However, there is no conclusive answer as to what accounts for a school's size. Some, for instance, may argue that more students are drawn to schools that they believe, rightly or not, offer more opportunities, both academically and career-wise, and/or have a tradition of or reputation for high quality, if not the best, education. | UNIVERSITY | AVERAGE CLASS SIZE | | Concordia University | 30 | | Dalhousie University | 30 | | HEC Montreal | 31 | | McGill University | 150 | | Memorial University of Newfoundland | 10-40 | | Queen's University | 61 | | Royal Military College | Class for core courses average 20-25 students; classes for elective courses average 8-10 students | | Ryerson University | The classes will be small, facilitating a dynamic interactive learning environment. | | University of Alberta | 43 | | University of British Columbia | 100-150 | | University of New Brunswick-Fredericton | 10-25 students in elective courses; 30-45 students in core courses. |
