MBA programs are ranked in a variety of ways: by GPA and GMAT/GRE scores, salaries earned by grads, and other metrics. Pitchbook Data, Inc. has devised a ranking that is based on the number of graduates who are entrepreneurs, and how much venture funding they have raised.
There were multiple criteria that went into these international rankings. However, there is still some skewing of trends. This is due to the fact that some programs have a reputation that will entice the types of people who go on to become entrepreneurs. Shifts in rankings are also noted. This makes it easier to see how a particular school has moved up or down over the years. The data for this report was collected from the beginning of 2006 through June 30, 2018.
