Simon Fraser University's business school works from two very different places. Undergraduates study on Burnaby Mountain, a concrete campus that's often wrapped in cloud, while most graduate programmes run from the Segal Building at 500 Granville Street, a former bank in downtown Vancouver. Beedie holds AACSB and EQUIS accreditation. People apply for the MBA, the finance master's and a practical BBA with co-op placements.

The mountain campus is a short bus ride up from Production Way or Lougheed SkyTrain stations, with residences and a small hilltop neighbourhood called UniverCity.
Downtown, the Segal Building is steps from Waterfront and Granville stations. Vancouver rents are among Canada's highest, so many students share suites in Burnaby or New Westminster.

SFU's international undergraduate deadlines fall between late autumn and the end of January for September entry. Graduate programmes close in winter or early spring, and the MBA admits in rounds. Early applicants have more time for the study permit.
Most programmes start in September. The BBA also takes some students in January.
Study permit, applied for through IRCC. You'll upload the acceptance letter from Simon Fraser University, an attestation letter if your programme needs one, proof you can pay tuition and living costs, and then give biometrics.
The BBA, full-time MBA, MSc Finance and the Graduate Diploma in Business Administration are popular. The BBA admits on school grades with IELTS 6.5. Graduate programmes want a bachelor's degree, work experience for the MBA and usually IELTS 7.0.
SFU gives entrance scholarships to strong international undergraduates. Beedie's graduate programmes have some merit awards and bursaries, usually partial. Some need a separate form, so check the scholarship pages when you apply.
