How this list is ordered
Programs are ordered by the median earnings of their Business Administration and Management graduates four years after completing, highest first. Only programs with a reported earnings cohort in the Midwest appear. The figure is the median for federally aided completers of the program who were working and not enrolled, measured four years after completing. For 6 of the 268 listed programs the figure is the two-year completion median rather than the four-year one. The metric does not adjust for graduate school enrollment, cost, or who enrolls, and it is not a measure of teaching quality. The spread from University of Michigan-Ann Arbor to the bottom of the list is $118,687, and the gap between University of Michigan-Ann Arbor and University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign is $36,750.
