Well, It's really a big dream for me to get an MBA program in Canada .. unfortunately I won't be able to fund it with those very high fees.. I'm looking for a fully funded scholarship for an accredited MBA program in Canada and I don't know is there any chances for me ??
If there is then what are those and how to increase my chances to catch the scholarship opportunity that fits me ???

Note: I'm a Veterinarian female who have been working in sales and marketing for more than 7 years now , with a marketing studies in one of the accredited academies in my country and the middle east .

Which programs are you looking at?

Many MBA programs offer some kind of entrance scholarship, which tend to be given out based on your strength as a candidate. They tend to reward higher-than-average GMAT scores as well as exceptional work experience or something else that's really interesting about you as a candidate.

In terms of Canadian schools, I know that Schulich has something along these lines, but those who receive the awards tend to have undergraduate GPAs of A or A-.

McGill has awards too, a number of them, rewarding academic excellence, leadership, and other skills.

Beyond that, there might be other scholarships that would be awarded based on your background. You'll have to check with each school individually, or even with other places like any educational association in your country which may give out awards for international study.

Oh right, I should have mentioned that - yes, full scholarships will only be available for exceptional students or people with very unique backgrounds. The chances are against most applicants.
