MBAs by the Numbers
With a record number of applicants — more than ten thousand —
to the MBA Class of 2004, it seems that the acronym B2B could now
stand for Back to Business School. From this impressive pool, MBA
Program admissions officers selected a diverse group of students who
arrived at Soldiers Field in the fall eager to hone their leadership
skills, gain practical knowledge, and meet fellow students from
myriad backgrounds. Meanwhile, the Class of 2002 embarked on
new careers. Despite the downturn in the economy, recent graduates
landed on their feet. Statistics for each group are below.
