The table below is found on p.92. It focuses specifically on the "top international schools". The original print issue can be consulted in the Business Library.
M.B.A.s Abroad
Until recently the U.S. enjoyed a virtual monopoly on business education. No longer. "The M.B.A. has become a global currency of intellectual capital. Studying overseas adds incredible value," says David Wilson, president of the Graduate Management Admissions Council.
The top international schools (see table) offer a global network with a far more diverse student population than you'll find at most U.S schools. Curriculums in non-U.S. schools are similar to those here, but in many cases the foreign M.B.A. programs are shorter and more intensive. IMD, INSEAD and Cranfield offer one-year programs that boost their return on investment. Each of these schools has a five-year M.B.A. gain of more than $100,000. London Business School's five-year gain of $149,000 is second only to Harvard's among all two-year programs.
