The Full-Time Master of Business Administration program at La Salle University’s School of Business has the fourth-highest employment rate in the nation, according to a new report from U.S. News & World Report. Among the 131 MBA programs considered for the study, La Salle’s employment rate for graduates three months after graduation is 96.4 percent, compared to an average of 88.3 percent among full-time MBAs.

“La Salle’s signature has long been a highly-personalized education,” according to MarySheila E. McDonald, J.D., Dean of La Salle’s School of Business.

“Our Full-Time MBA program’s impressive placement success is a direct result of an intentionally-curated approach to business education which integrates current business theory with the development of indispensable skills which today’s employers seek, including the ability to work in and build strong teams, critical and creative thinking, problem solving, respect for diverse perspectives, and adaptability. When you combine this approach with our powerful employer network, many of whom are also La Salle alumni, the impact on students is extraordinary.”
