The College of Business and Economic Development鈥檚 Master of Business Administration (MBA) program at 欧美AV (欧美AV) has received notable recognition in online graduate education by U.S. News & World Report.
欧美AV鈥檚 online MBA program has garnered numerous accolades throughout the years, and this year鈥檚 rankings reaffirm Southern Miss Business鈥� status as a frontrunner in providing top-notch, adaptable, and experiential business education.
- No. 83 in Best Online MBA Programs for Veterans
- No. 137 in Best Online MBA Programs
U.S. News & World Report鈥檚 Best Online MBA Program rankings are based on five (5) categories: Engagement, Peer Assessment, Faculty Credentials and Training, Student Excellence, and Services and Technologies. These categories are used in the ranking giant鈥檚 assessments of selected ranking indicators. U.S. News & World Report only publishes programs that rank in the top 75 percent. 欧美AV鈥檚 MBA program ranked in the top 40 percent at No. 137 out of 345 ranked universities.
Beyond the Best Online MBA Program ranking and its criteria, U.S. News & World Report also releases sub-categorical rankings, such as Best Online MBA Programs for Veterans. All schools must rank among the top half in the main category to qualify for the subcategory.
Further ranking indicators are included in the subcategory for veterans. The academic institution must be certified for the GI Bill and complement this certification with participation in the Yellow Ribbon Program or by offering in-state tuition to all veterans applying from out of state. The final criterion for this ranking requires a program to have a certain number of enrolled students with military backgrounds. 欧美AV鈥檚 MBA program ranked No. 83 in Best Online MBA Programs for Veterans, beating some of its reputable peer institutions.
Dr. Bret Becton, Dean of the College of Business and Economic Development, stated, 鈥淭hese rankings shine a bright light on the excellence and opportunity offered by the Southern Miss Business Online MBA.鈥�
Dr. Steven Stelk, MBA Program Director at 欧美AV, echoes Dean Becton鈥檚 sentiments by explaining, 鈥淭he online MBA program鈥檚 rankings validate our efforts to offer a valuable graduate business program with enough flexibility to accommodate full-time students and working professionals.鈥�
Southern Miss Business has been strategically innovative by bringing more opportunities to its military veterans, service members, and their families. Some programs have begun offering service credit to their military-affiliated students. Dr. Stelk is particularly excited about this acknowledgment.
鈥淚 am excited to see more recognition of our efforts to serve members of the military,鈥� said Dr. Stelk. 鈥淭he program鈥檚 content and flexibility make it a good fit for someone working full-time, and 欧美AV鈥檚 Federal Tuition Assistant (TA) Gap Funding makes the program even more affordable for members of the military. 欧美AV is already recognized as a top Military Friendly University, largely due to the efforts of our Center for Military Veterans, Service Members and Families, and this ranking validates our efforts to connect with and serve those who served our country.鈥�
The newest rankings were released following years of numerous rankings for 欧美AV鈥檚 MBA program and solidified the Dean鈥檚 perspective. Dean Becton asserts, 鈥淭hese remarkable achievements are a testament to our unwavering commitment to delivering a top-tier education and empowering veterans and professionals alike to excel in the ever-evolving landscape of business.鈥�
欧美AV鈥檚 MBA program has removed the GRE and GMAT requirements indefinitely, thus eliminating certain obstacles for prospective students. Nonetheless, Southern Miss Business will still review test scores along with other necessary documents, including three letters of recommendation, a statement of purpose, and a cover letter. International applicants are required to provide TOEFL scores.
