Becoming a Golden Hawk means more than just cheering on our (really good) varsity teams – it means being a student who cares about your community, who works hard in the classroom, and who takes advantage of all the learning opportunities that can happen outside the classroom, too.

At the Lazaridis School, our goal is to empower you to succeed in whatever path you choose and to arm you with the tools to achieve your definition of success.
Upon receipt of an offer of admission, applicants are required to submit the tuition deposit form. For detailed information on accepting your offer, refer to the graduate admissions toolkit.
Admissions for all domestic applications received are processed on a rolling basis. Applications will be considered as soon as they are submitted. We encourage applicants to apply as soon as they are ready, as the programs can fill up quickly.
Rolling admission means that offers of admission are awarded year-round to all successful candidates for all of the upcoming intake dates until a program is full.
Note: Rolling admission does not apply to international applications, however all international applications are reviewed by Jan. 15 of each year for the Waterloo MBA programs. For the 2023 admission cycle, we have extended this deadline to Mar. 1, 2023.
If you are interested in applying to the program and the dealine has passed, please contact us directly.
The MBA programs application is a two-step process. We recommend starting step one as soon as you have decided to apply. This will allow you to create your account and work on part two of the application process.
We recommend starting step one of the two-step process as soon as possible. This provides you access to the system where you will upload your final documents.
The application deadline for part two of the two-step process is Aug. 1, for the full-time and full-time with co-op programs starting in August, and Aug. 15 for the part-time programs starting in September.
Note that applicants do not need a GMAT score to complete step one of the application. Applicants can bypass that information but then will be required to submit an unofficial GMAT score in part two of the application process.
If you are an eligible candidate interested in applying for any of our Waterloo degrees, contact us with any admission or application questions.
