Yet another university in the Atlanta Metro Area has spent the past year working hard. University of Georgia Terry College of Business joins schools like Goizueta and Robinson towards the top of the pack in U.S. News & World Report’s annual business school rankings.
Terry’s 23-month part-time MBA for working professionals ranks 25th among public university programs or 37th overall.
“We are pleased that U.S. News & World Report has recognized the Terry College among the nation’s best MBA programs,” said Terry College Dean Ben Ayers. “They provide both affirmation for efforts and motivation to continue to enhance our programs.”
The U.S. News part-time MBA ranking is based on five factors: average peer assessment score (50 percent of the overall score); average GMAT score and GRE scores of part-time MBA students entering in the fall of 2014 (15 percent); average undergraduate GPA (5 percent); work experience (15 percent); and the percentage of the fall 2014 MBA enrollment that is part time (15 percent).
Terry’s part-time MBA program is designed to be a mix of in-classroom and distance learning. Over the course of 23 weeks, students take two courses in 12 week modules taking two courses at a time. Classes are held twice a week from 6-9pm.
