UAlberta Management Analytics statement of intent

The Alberta School of Business asks Master of Management Analytics applicants for a one-page statement of intent alongside a résumé, academic documents, and two references. Its full-time Fall 2027 and part-time Winter 2027 routes have separate application windows. This statement is not the FastTrack MBA's longer, experience-focused statement.
