No, it is not difficult to apply for an MBA without a commerce background. Many MBA programs, including those in Canada, accept students from fields like engineering, arts, science, and law.
You may need to show your quantitative or business skills through your academic record, entrance exams (such as GMAT or GRE, if required), and your statement of purpose. Some programs also offer introductory courses to help you build core business knowledge.
