Is it hard to learn how to use the online courseroom?
Not at all -- Using the online courseroom is similar to using email, your computer, or any basic software program.
In our MBA/EMBA programs, as your first introduction to the University of Fredericton's courseroom and online learning in general you will take an initial orientation course. This orientation course is designed to provide new learners with the knowledge and skills they need to be successful in their online degree programs. The orientation course familiarizes learners with the University of Fredericton online environment and support resources provided to ensure success. Learners build skills in the selection and use of methods, techniques, and library resources. The orientation course takes no longer than one week to complete on a part time self paced basis with a faculty directing participation. It includes how to use the best technology and learning practices in the online campus; an overall general guide to how to be an online student; and an orientation to the virtual classroom. top
How will I know what I am supposed to do next and where to click?
At the University of Fredericton, getting around our campus is easy! Settle down with your coffee and laptop and you're there. Prior to beginning your first course, learners are required to enroll in a week-long Online Orientation which allows the learner to become familiar with the system before beginning their studies. top
How do I receive and hand in assignments?
Learners can view, print and post assignments right on the campus. Grades are posted on your personal profile as well as faculty comments. top
How do I interact with my faculty and classmates?
Learners find that one of the most exciting advantages to our online learning environment is the ongoing opportunity to interact online with faculty and other learners.
- By email: Learners and instructors exchange email addresses at the beginning of each course, which enables ongoing discussion outside of the online courseroom.
- Using online discussion threads: Track topical discussions or respond to questions posed by your instructor.
- Live Lecture: We use a synchronous delivery system (DiscoverE Virtual Learning Environment). The Lecture is moderated by the course faculty and you just have to be concerned about your preparation and participation - it is almost identical to a face-to-face class. The learner orientation takes about 15 minutes for a first time user. You only need a high speed connection and a headset with a microphone.
- Message Center: In the asynchronous component, you are given a log in and brief orientation (about 10 minutes) and you are ready to ask, answer and address the subject matter. top
What kind of support can I expect from faculty and advisors?
Learners can expect first class support from the University staff and faculty. We guarantee a response to your question within one business day. We are available to assist with anything you may need. top
Is the University program really 100% online?
Yes, 100%. This includes registration, ordering books, posting assignments, interacting with classmates, receiving feedback from instructors, etc. Imagine, no long commute and no waiting in lines. top
What are the significant differences between online learning and classroom learning?
You can earn why you learn without a major disruption of your business and personal life. What this means is focus. You can focus on learning what you want to learn on your time and in your place. In the classroom itself, you can take your time to think, and then contribute. And all of the courses are recorded in case you miss one or want to go back and reinforce your learning. top
What time are classes held?
Any time, day or night, you can access your course and participate online, as long as you have an Internet connection. Learners usually need to log in 4-7 times each week, but there is no set class schedule so you can "attend class" anytime. Typically, learners spend an average of 18 hours per week, per course with times varying from 5 to 8 hours per course depending on factors such as number of course credit hours, degree program, and learner's prior knowledge.
There is one weekly live session with your professor and classmates. Other than that, you choose. This form of program delivery allows you to fit school into your busy schedule, rather than attempting to fit your schedule around school. Nothing could be more convenient. top
Do classes have specific start and end dates?
Yes, each course has a designated start and end date. Each course is seven weeks in duration. top
How long will my program take me to complete?
The amount of time you will need to earn your degree depends on several factors, including:
- The program you enroll in
- Whether you transfer in previously earned college or university credit
- How many classes you take at one time
There are typically six academic terms per year for the EMBA program. Each course is seven weeks in duration. Completion of the EMBA degree program is approximately ten academic terms (
2 ¼ years). During this time, students can expect to commit between 18 - 25 hours per week on their studies. While not normal, the length of time to earn a degree can be extended up to a total duration of four years.
For a better idea of how long it will take for you to complete your degree, call 1-506-454-6232. Our enrolment Manager can help you map out your program. top
What are my program requirements?
Your program requirements are easily accessible on this web site. Each program section includes nearly everything you need to know about completing your degree. To find your program of interest, visit the Master of Business Administration (MBA) Program Section or visit the Executive Master of Business Administration (EMBA) Program Section. Or, call 1-506-454-6232 and speak with our enrolment Manager who can help you choose and map out the program that is right for you. top
How and when do I enroll in online courses?
Many University of Fredericton programs accept new learners on a monthly basis. Certain programs accept new learners at the beginning of each academic quarter. Check with your enrolment director on the options available to you.
To determine specific enrolment deadlines, find your specific program, or call an enrolment counselor at 1-506-454-6232 for personal assistance. top
Can I apply to the University's Executive MBA without an undergraduate degree?
We recognize that a number of business owners, managers and professionals have earned their positions through the knowledge and skills they have obtained in the workforce, and that they have the ability to succeed in graduate business programs.
You must be able to demonstrate eight to ten years of progressively responsible managerial experience and provide the same supporting documentation as the MBA applicants to our Admissions Committee to be considered for entrance into the EMBA program. Students may be required to complete the GMAT examination. top
Do you accept transfer credit?
Yes. The University accepts transfer credits for comparable courses taken at a graduate level. These courses could be a result of a previous MBA program or other advanced coursework. Transfer credits will only be accepted from accredited institutions. top
Do you limit the number of students who can enrol in the program?
No. All students who meet the entrance requirements are accepted to the program. top
Do you require the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT)?

What happens if I move to a new location?
No problem. You can continue with your degree program from anywhere in the world as long as you have access to the Internet. top
Do you accept International students?

Do you require a Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL)?
The TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) would only be required if the student's undergraduate degree was not earned in an education institutional whose programs are delivered in the English language. Students must be able to communicate graduate-level concepts effectively in English to be successful in the program. top
Can I use photocopies of my university transcripts to apply?
Applicants must submit official transcripts from all post-secondary institutions attended. An official transcript is one that is forwarded directly to the Admissions Office of the University by the issuing institution, or (if provided by the applicant) in the school's sealed transcript envelope. A student's copy, photocopy, transcript with courses in progress, or a transcript not contained in the school's sealed transcript envelope is considered to be unofficial or interim and will be used only for the preliminary evaluation. An offer of admission based on unofficial or interim documents will be conditional until the Admissions Office has received the final official transcripts (as described above) and the applicant has satisfied all admission requirements.
Transcripts in languages other than English must be submitted together with notarized English translations. top
How is tuition paid?
There are three options for payment of tuition for the MBA Programs. The first option requires full payment of each year's tuition amount at the beginning of each of the two years. The second option allows for three installments. The third option allows you to pay by course. This payment must be made two weeks in advance of the course start date. You may pay online with Visa or MasterCard or send a cheque in Canadian Funds. A surcharge applies to the course-by-course payment option. top
Are the fees completely tax deductible?
Fees are tax deductible to the extent permitted by Revenue Canada. We are unable to provide you with detailed tax advice and we encourage you to seek advice from a qualified professional in the taxation field. top
How do I get started?
Fill out our Information Request Form and we will contact you ASAP. To speak with our Enrolment Manager immediately, call 1-506-454-6232 Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM, Eastern Standard Time. top

The Lecture is moderated by the course faculty and you just have to be concerned about your preparation and participation - it is almost identical to a face-to-face class. The learner orientation takes about 15 minutes for a first time user. You only need a high speed connection and a headset with a microphone.
- Message Center: In the asynchronous component, you are given a log in and brief orientation (about 10 minutes) and you are ready to ask, answer and address the subject matter. top
What kind of support can I expect from faculty and advisors?
Learners can expect first class support from the University staff and faculty. We guarantee a response to your question within one business day. We are available to assist with anything you may need. top
Is the University program really 100% online?
Yes, 100%. This includes registration, ordering books, posting assignments, interacting with classmates, receiving feedback from instructors, etc. Imagine, no long commute and no waiting in lines. top
What are the significant differences between online learning and classroom learning?
You can earn why you learn without a major disruption of your business and personal life. What this means is focus. You can focus on learning what you want to learn on your time and in your place. In the classroom itself, you can take your time to think, and then contribute. And all of the courses are recorded in case you miss one or want to go back and reinforce your learning. top
What time are classes held?
Any time, day or night, you can access your course and participate online, as long as you have an Internet connection. Learners usually need to log in 4-7 times each week, but there is no set class schedule so you can "attend class" anytime. Typically, learners spend an average of 18 hours per week, per course with times varying from 5 to 8 hours per course depending on factors such as number of course credit hours, degree program, and learner's prior knowledge.
There is one weekly live session with your professor and classmates. Other than that, you choose. This form of program delivery allows you to fit school into your busy schedule, rather than attempting to fit your schedule around school. Nothing could be more convenient. top
Do classes have specific start and end dates?
Yes, each course has a designated start and end date. Each course is seven weeks in duration. top
How long will my program take me to complete?
The amount of time you will need to earn your degree depends on several factors, including:
- The program you enroll in
- Whether you transfer in previously earned college or university credit
- How many classes you take at one time
There are typically six academic terms per year for the EMBA program. Each course is seven weeks in duration. Completion of the EMBA degree program is approximately ten academic terms (
2 ¼ years). During this time, students can expect to commit between 18 - 25 hours per week on their studies. While not normal, the length of time to earn a degree can be extended up to a total duration of four years.
For a better idea of how long it will take for you to complete your degree, call 1-506-454-6232. Our enrolment Manager can help you map out your program. top
What are my program requirements?
Your program requirements are easily accessible on this web site. Each program section includes nearly everything you need to know about completing your degree.

Or, call 1-506-454-6232 and speak with our enrolment Manager who can help you choose and map out the program that is right for you. top
How and when do I enroll in online courses?

We recognize that a number of business owners, managers and professionals have earned their positions through the knowledge and skills they have obtained in the workforce, and that they have the ability to succeed in graduate business programs.
You must be able to demonstrate eight to ten years of progressively responsible managerial experience and provide the same supporting documentation as the MBA applicants to our Admissions Committee to be considered for entrance into the EMBA program. Students may be required to complete the GMAT examination.
Non-Degree enrolment is also permitted to persons without an undergraduate degree who holds an advanced professional certification from a recognized national professional association. Almost any class found on the Course Schedule is available for Non-Degree enrolment. Enrolment as a non-degree student requires prior written approval from the Office of the Dean of Academics and is on a standby basis. Students taking courses via Non-Degree enrolment study alongside degree program students and earn full course credit. Upon successful completion of three courses (for credit), students may apply for consideration for entry to the degree program. top

You must be able to demonstrate eight to ten years of progressively responsible managerial experience and provide the same supporting documentation as the MBA applicants to our Admissions Committee to be considered for entrance into the EMBA program. Students may be required to complete the GMAT examination. top
Do you accept transfer credit?
Yes. The University accepts transfer credits for comparable courses taken at a graduate level. These courses could be a result of a previous MBA program or other advanced coursework. Transfer credits will only be accepted from accredited institutions. top
Do you limit the number of students who can enrol in the program?
No. All students who meet the entrance requirements are accepted to the program. top
Do you require the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT)?
The GMAT is a provisional requirement for admission into the University. Applicants who fulfill all other university entrance requirements without marginal conditions are not required to undertake the GMAT. top
What happens if I move to a new location?
No problem. You can continue with your degree program from anywhere in the world as long as you have access to the Internet. top
Do you accept International students?
Yes. We will give you the contact information for our nearest international partner to whom you can send the necessary application documentation (transcript, letters of reference, application form). top
Do you require a Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL)?
The TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) would only be required if the student's undergraduate degree was not earned in an education institutional whose programs are delivered in the English language. Students must be able to communicate graduate-level concepts effectively in English to be successful in the program. top
Can I use photocopies of my university transcripts to apply?
Applicants must submit official transcripts from all post-secondary institutions attended. An official transcript is one that is forwarded directly to the Admissions Office of the University by the issuing institution, or (if provided by the applicant) in the school's sealed transcript envelope. A student's copy, photocopy, transcript with courses in progress, or a transcript not contained in the school's sealed transcript envelope is considered to be unofficial or interim and will be used only for the preliminary evaluation. An offer of admission based on unofficial or interim documents will be conditional until the Admissions Office has received the final official transcripts (as described above) and the applicant has satisfied all admission requirements.
Transcripts in languages other than English must be submitted together with notarized English translations. top
How is tuition paid?
There are three options for payment of tuition for the MBA Programs. The first option requires full payment of each year's tuition amount at the beginning of each of the two years. The second option allows for three installments. The third option allows you to pay by course. This payment must be made two weeks in advance of the course start date. You may pay online with Visa or MasterCard or send a cheque in Canadian Funds. A surcharge applies to the course-by-course payment option. top
Are the fees completely tax deductible?
Fees are tax deductible to the extent permitted by Revenue Canada. We are unable to provide you with detailed tax advice and we encourage you to seek advice from a qualified professional in the taxation field. top
