Is Canada your primary country of interest for masters based on your work experience, and do you have a backup country like the UK?
27 Aug 2026 · Answered by Pushplata Gaddmwar · 1 min read
Yes, based on your four years of work experience, Canada is a strong primary choice for your master's. Canadian universities value professional experience, especially for programs like MBAs, where applicants often have an average of 6.4 years of work experience.
Canada also offers the Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP), which allows graduates to gain Canadian work experience - an advantage for those considering permanent residency.
The UK can be a backup option, as many UK master's programs consider work experience, but post-study work opportunities are generally more limited compared to Canada.
