These rankings are based on responses from more than 100 schools and 17,500 alumni around the world. Graduates\u2019 earnings in their first five years after graduation from business school were compared to their opportunity cost, which gave Forbes a five-year MBA gain \u2013 the basis for the final rank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The alumni survey reveals that an MBA from one of the top schools continues to be very valuable, and pays for itself in approximately four years. Alumni from the class of 2014 at the top 25 U.S. programs boosted their salaries from an average of $73,000 before their MBA to $193,000 last year. Salaries have gone up on average 10% each year since graduation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Top 10 U.S. business schools<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"671\" height=\"708\" src=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Forbes-rankings-US-schools1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-47105\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Forbes-rankings-US-schools1.png 671w, https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Forbes-rankings-US-schools1-284x300.png 284w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 671px) 100vw, 671px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"667\" height=\"246\" src=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Forbes-rankings-US-schools2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-47106\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Forbes-rankings-US-schools2.png 667w, https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Forbes-rankings-US-schools2-300x111.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 667px) 100vw, 667px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Top 10 one-year international programs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"660\" height=\"812\" src=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Forbes-rankings-international-schools1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-47107\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Forbes-rankings-international-schools1.png 660w, https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Forbes-rankings-international-schools1-244x300.png 244w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"278\" src=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Forbes-rankings-international-schools2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-47110\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Forbes-rankings-international-schools2.png 680w, https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Forbes-rankings-international-schools2-300x123.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do you need help choosing the best business school for you?
