However, graduates of thetop business schools in the US can attract MBA salary levels some 10- 30% higher than this – particularly those lying in close proximity to the major cities of New York, Boston, San Francisco and Chicago.

Evolution of salaries and MBA ROI
A new report from PayScale affords an impression of how salaries and MBA ROI (return on investment) in the US can improve as graduates move further into their careers.
The report contains a look at MBA ROI using salary data from the alumni of 166 business schools in the US. For those who continue to work in the US, it compares the difference between alumni earnings in the first five years after graduating (‘early career’) with those made at least ten years after leaving business school (‘mid-career’).
Its top-10, based on mid-career earnings is displayed below. Please note that it is using median MBA salary levels rather than mean averages in its analysis. The results suggest that looking beyond the early career earnings of MBAs can give a different outcome when it comes to analyzing MBA ROI among the top business schools in the US.
