Fraser Stark, a native of Toronto, is one of them. He earned his Honors in Business Administration degree from the University of Western Ontarios Richard Ivey School of Business in 2001.

But Stark chose to apply exclusively to American schools, and today is happily enrolled at the Stanford Graduate School of Business.
