The Carl H. Lindner College of Business's full-time, cohort MBA degree program at the University of Cincinnati has been ranked third in the country by Bloomberg Businessweek for return on investment for graduates.
Lindner's return on investment is 20.5%, an increase of 5.3% from the 2023-24 rankings. Bloomberg's methodology for its Business School return on investment calculator uses profit relative to initial principal as the basis for its rankings, which are updated annually. The median return on investment based on Bloomberg survey responses was 13.3%.
The Return on Investment Calculator, which uses data reported to Bloomberg by MBA graduates, is "designed to help students evaluate the numbers to determine whether the time and expense of getting the advanced degree is worthwhile."
