Your cohort can be a mixed bag. It's a luck of the draw, like anything in life. You'll get some shitty people, you'll get some superstars, and you'll get some people who end up or may end up being at your wedding and your kids birthdays some day.

The one important thing I learned about an MBA is not what you learn from the program - It's the people and connections you make, regardless of whether it is online or in person. Let's stop and think for a second. Where do you think you'll be more successful? Doing your MBA at let's say UBC or University of Phoenix? Who are you likely to meet at these two schools? And which will be more recognized should you decide to take your personal and professional career outside of Canada?

My brother is doing a MBA program at USC. It's a mixed program both online and in person, but mostly online due to COVID-19 and he can't get across the border given the circumstances. It's been just fine, but think of the network of people he'll have access to, compared to if he had completed his MBA at UBC.
