Tuition and Scholarships

Invest in Your Future

Earning a Master of Business Administration (MBA) is a significant investment in your career but the return on that investment is undeniable. According to a recent report, the average salary for MBA graduates is just over $80,000.

The need for creative, capable and visionary professionals is always in demand, that’s why 95% of Lazaridis MBA grads are gainfully employed full-time within 12 months after graduation and another 1% go on to further studies.
