MBA students at some of the most expensive and prestigious programs are having buyer’s remorse, spurred by Covid-19.
Students felt the price tag of their programs—some more than $80,000 annually for tuition, fees, and other charges—wasn’t worth it, even after the changes required by the coronavirus pandemic, according to a survey of 3,532 MBA students at 95 graduate programs around the world. Bloomberg Businessweek conducted the study from May to early August.
