[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The top 10 MBA programs according to US News are:

1) Chicago-Booth
2) Northwestern-Kellogg
3) Penn-Wharton
4) MIT-Sloan
5) Harvard Business School
6) Dartmouth-Tuck
6) Stanford GSB
8) Michigan-Ross
9) Yale-SOm
10) NYU-Stern

Immediately beyond the current top 10:

11) Columbia Business School
11) Duke-Fuqua
11) UCAl-Berkeley
14) Virginia-Darden
15) Cornell

OP: You need to refine your question & consider sharing more information as to why your son/daughter wants to attend an MBA program without any full-time post undergraduate work experience.

Is he/she open to alternatives such as a current offer of admission conditioned upon completion of at least one to two years of full-time post undergraduate work experience ?

Is she/she open to attending a on year masters specialty or generalized business program ?

Which programs would your student most like to attend and why ?

Thank you - this is very helpful. He has an offer to continue working for the consulting firm where he interned but hoped to continue on with his studies and knock out business school. We are encouraging him to work for a couple of years as DH and I did that before law school and it helped us find niche areas of practice.  He is interested in a generalized program and would be open to a current offer conditioned on completion of X years of work experience - is that a common type of offer? His background is in a STEM field and would like to attend Sloan but, hoping to live in Boston, he would also apply to Harvard as well as other programs that have higher acceptance rates.

No this is not how it works. You don't "knock out" business school. It's not like law school. You don't need it in many fields. He should take the consulting job. If they like him, they may sponsor it for him.[/quote]
