MBA Rankings: A Top Program
We understand that rankings offer a solid first indicator as to the quality of a particular MBA program. Being ranked consistently among the best MBA programs in the United States and 9th among public universities are just two indicators of our MBA program’s dedication to excellence. We have also been evaluated by areas of expertise, and we are proud of the results. But in addition to our rankings, we hope you will take the time to determine if our school’s particular identity and character are right for you.

"I joined Fisher College, after teaching for a number of years at Harvard, because it offers a unique set of opportunities - for faculty and students alike. Since it is a deliberately small program, yet embedded in a major research university, Fisher College truly has the capacity to dedicate attention to the individual."
