JWMI recognized in the list of best online MBA programs for the seventh year in a row

The Jack Welch Management Institute at Strayer University (JWMI) was recognized by Poets&Quants, the premier online publication for business education news, as one of the top 10 online MBA programs for 2025. JWMI was ranked number 8 for the second year in a row, securing its spot in the top 10 for the fourth consecutive year. Data for the rankings came from surveys distributed to participating schools and to alumni, with 57 schools included in this year’s ranking.

"We are proud to remain ranked among Poets&Quants’ list of the top 10 online MBA programs in the country,” said Mary Carr, Senior Vice Provost and Dean, JWMI. “We are particularly encouraged by high rankings in overall professor quality and accessibility of professors, which demonstrates our faculty’s dedication to providing students an excellent educational experience.”

Poets&Quants based its rankings on three core criteria of online business programs, which include: admissions standards, academic experience, and career outcomes. Data is collected through both school and alumni surveys and includes a wide range of topics such as GPA, acceptance rate, student engagement, program fulfillment, and more.

JWMI has consistently remained in Poets&Quants’ annual online MBA program rankings. Prior to this year’s announcement, JWMI placed at 6 and 8 in 2023 and 2024 respectively. The program has also been highly ranked among top online MBA programs by The Princeton Review and CEO Magazine.
