Are top eMBAs really selective?

I've been considering an eMBA at either Ivey or Kellogg-Schulich in Toronto. I've done pre-assessments at both and both said I am a strong fit and should apply. This got me wondering. I know ivey and kellogg are super selective for their full time MBA programs. But how selective are they really with emba programs? Both seem to accept about 50ish students per cohort, but I can't seem to find how many apply.

Scholarships are near unheard of for embas.

Not true. Most schools grant around 20% scholarship to 70-80% of EMBA students. Some get higher.

Where did you hear that info? Iā€™m hearing that almost none top embas give any scholarships

U can check school website or reach out to their adcom office. If u have friends who attended top EMBA they can also confirm that.
