Alyssa Alidina’s story is all about stepping out of her comfort zone: and loving it. It all started when she was finishing up her BScN Natural Resources Conservation, major in Global Perspectives at UBC. This Vancouver native knew one thing: “I wanted to go to grad school; I didn’t want to work after my undergrad.”
The then Dean of the program, David Wheeler, was in Vancouver at one of our info sessions that Alyssa attended. “That the Dean had so much investment in the program meant a lot to me,” she recalled. In a span of six months prior to getting accepted into the Corporate Residency MBA, she wrote the GRE, GMAT and LSAT while also working part time during school and full time in the summer, but was so enticed by our program that it was the only one she ended up applying to!
