Main Factors to Consider When Choosing The
Best Business
School for You
Does the school offer the degree you want? (e.g., MBA, MAcc, EMBA)
Is the tuition affordable?
Are the school's graduates successful in landing the types of jobs you'd like to
land yourself?
Is the curriculum as broadly or as narrowly focused (or as flexible) as you'd
like?
Is the class schedule flexible enough for you to meet your other commitments?
Do the accommodations (classrooms, media centers, libraries, housing facilities,
etc.) meet your needs?
Additional Factors that Make a Business School Desirable
Is the school known for the high quality of its programs and graduates? Rankings
lists can help you determine this, even if a business school isn't top-ranked,
it can still have a good reputation.
Does the faculty possess extensive education? Are the faculty members considered
to be leaders in their fields?
Are the class sizes small? Is the student:teacher ratio low?
Are the professors committed to teaching? Are they available outside of class?
Does the school have a Career Placement office that actively works to assist
graduates in finding internships and jobs?
How to Evaluate a Business School
Read though their Web sites or promotional material — or use the tools on this
site to browse though business schools, read about their programs, and request
information.
Visit the school.
Sit in on classes.
Talk with students and faculty.
Talk with graduates of the school.
If you know which companies you're interested in working for, talk to them, or
read through their Web sites to find out what business schools and what types of
programs they tend to hire from.
Look over the curriculum of the program you're interested in, then consult the
school's catalog to study the relevant course descriptions.
