Top MBA, graduate and law school placements*
Most MBA programs require two to four years work experience prior to admission. For that reason, the overwhelming majority of business majors seek employment immediately following graduation. Some eventually pursue advanced degrees, especially the MBA. Our economics and political science majors have an almost 100 percent acceptance rate into graduate programs and law schools. As noted below, we are well represented at the best graduate programs and law schools in the country. McKenna School graduates are presently attending the following law schools and PhD and masters programs:* Brandeis University Carnegie Mellon University, Heinz School Duquesne University School of Business Duquesne University School of Law Georgetown University Law School Harvard University Law School Howard University Law School Indiana University at Bloomington London School of Economics and Political Science Ohio State University Ohio State University Law School | Pennsylvania State University Princeton University Touro Jacob D. Fuchsberg School of Law University at Albany, SUNY University of Pittsburgh, GSPIA University of Pittsburgh Law School University of Pittsburgh, Katz School Villanova School of Law University of Maryland Washington University in St. Louis Washington University Law School |
*For some graduate programs listed above, we have several students in attendance, e.g., we have 19 students presently at Duquesne Law School and 5 students in Indiana University at Bloomington's PhD economics program.
