About the university
Yorkville University is a private university that has served students since 2004, with about 25,000 students and alumni. It has campuses in Toronto (at Concord, on Steeles Avenue West) and Vancouver (in New Westminster), plus an online campus. Its 2026 international brochure lists four programmes for international students: the BBA in Vancouver, and the BBA in Project Management, the Bachelor of Creative Arts and the MBA in Toronto.
Indian students look at Yorkville for its fast-track, year-round business degrees: the BBA can be finished in as little as 2.5 years and the MBA in under two. Yorkville says students who complete its on-campus degrees can apply for a Post-Graduation Work Permit. It does not offer scholarships to international students, though it has bursaries, and it has no on-campus housing.
