The top three public schools were the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business (5), the University of California, Los Angeles’ Anderson School of Management (6), and McCombs (8).

Poets & Quants’ EMBA ranking debuted in 2011. It has appeared sporadically over the years but is now being published annually. Unlike other ranking institutions, Poets & Quants assesses the overall reputation of programs by employing a weighted average of the three latest ratings of EMBA programs published by U.S. News & World Report (40%), Financial Times (40%),andFortune (20%). Schools are penalized when not represented in all three rankings.
