WASHINGTON – The Howard University School of Business was ranked No. 30 in Fortune Education’s Best MBA Programs. The school’s full-time MBA program was recognized for its AACSB accreditation as well as its student-faculty ratio, competitive acceptance rate, experiential learning opportunities, dual-degree and online program offerings, and more.

“We are elated to be recognized as the Top 30 Best MBA Programs in the inaugural Fortune Education MBA ranking,” said Howard University School of Business Dean Anthony Wilbon, Ph.D. “Our full-time MBA program prepares students to become global business leaders that possess the skills, creativity and vision that will make them successful stewards of business in the 21st century. Together, our faculty, staff and alumni community continue to innovate and find new ways to expand our program offerings in ways that increase accessibility and deepen students’ educational experience.”

Howard’s business school was also deemed the most underrated MBA program compared to other MBA program rankings. Touting the program as “small but mighty,” the rankings most heavily weighted score is outcomes.
