Re: Odds of meeting your spouse at MBA

To answer the original question on meeting a spouse in MBA school
For men:
If we're talking about meeting a spouse (presumably female) in MBA school where the spouse is also an MBA student, chances are very small. MBA programs are mostly male. And among the women, a number are either already married or are committed to someone else.
If we're talking about men meeting a possible spouse while in MBA school regardless of where the spouse is from, then the chances increase.
Also, a lot of men will be married or otherwise committed anyway.
for women:
There are more available single men out of the single women MBA students, so chances are better than the men for the former, but like I said, many men are taken.
As for meeting a possible husband who doesn't have to be in the MBA program as well, the sex ratio is a lot more even overall among a university's grad programs generally speaking.
