UAlberta FastTrack MBA statement of intent
UAlberta's FastTrack MBA is for applicants with an undergraduate business degree and several years of post-graduation work experience. Its statement introduces the applicant's reasons for the program, career goals, program fit, and likely contribution. This is a separate route from the one-page Master of Management Analytics statement and is reviewed before possible interview invitation.
Writing format
Approximately one-to-two-page statement of intent
What to prepare
- 1Explain a decision or responsibility from your professional experience that makes this the right moment for the FastTrack MBA.
- 2Tie your career goal to specific program strengths without repeating a generic MBA pitch.
- 3Describe what you would contribute to classmates through work, leadership, or community experience, supported by one concrete example.
How to approach the writing
- Use roughly one to two pages, as the school recommends, and keep the statement consistent with the separate résumé and two references.
- Submit the statement and other files in the graduate application; the admissions team contacts selected applicants for an interview after the file is complete.
