Poets & Quants just released its 2019-2020 rankings of the top 100 U.S. MBA programs.
There were some minor changes in the top 10 – most prominently is Stanford GSB climbing two spots, passing Harvard Business School and UPenn Wharton, to claim the #1 position. It’s the second time in 10 years that Stanford has claimed the top slot.
Other highlights include:
- Yale School of Management just barely broke into the top 10 by securing 10th place.
- Purdue’s Krannert School of Management dropped 10 spots from last year, from 38th to 48th.
- Fordham’s Gabelli School of Business jumped 12 spots from 62nd place last year to 50th.
- UC San Diego’s Rady School of Management experienced a massive jump, from 94th to 71st place.
P&Q ranking methodology
P&Q’s rankings are based on the rankings of five highly-influential business publications, and are weighted based on P&Q’s assessment of each ranking’s methodology and credibility. The five included in P&Q’s ranking are U.S. News (weight of 35%), Forbes (25%), The Financial Times (15%), Businessweek (15%), and The Economist (10%). Combining the rankings in this way lessens the irregularities that are frequently seen in a given year. This allows applicants to get a better idea of a school’s overall reputation, which typically changes little from year to year.
