The Wall Street Journal ranked the Walton M.B.A. program as the 11th best return on investment in the country.

The report, which looks at federal student loan and post-graduation salary data, ranks the U of A’s Walton M.B.A. program as the 11th-best return on investment in the country compared to 600 other programs.

“The Walton M.B.A. is one of the best M.B.A. programs out there,” said Adam Stoverink, director of Walton M.B.A. programs and associate professor of management. “Our world-class faculty and staff work hard to offer the highest quality learning experience for our students and our students work hard to constantly grow and better themselves. All this hard work pays big dividends after graduation.”

The analysis compared graduates’ debt to their income two years after graduation, and the report focused on federal loan recipients.

The ranking lists the University of Arkansas program as the top return on investment for M.B.A. programs within the state of Arkansas and most neighboring states.

The Walton M.B.A. program includes full-time and part-time formats to accommodate students’ professional needs. It also features a part-time Healthcare Executive M.B.A. program for healthcare administration professionals.
