" ranking, among other reputable sites like Grad School Hub and the Financial Times), Tepper seems to stand out among the pack. U.S. News & World Report ranked it number three in terms of top online MBA schools in 2019 , while Poets & Quants ranked it number one in 2018 and number four in 2019 — looking at things like academic and career support, admissions standards, and student surveys.

Andrew Adrian-Karlin earned his MBA online from the Tepper School of Business in 2019. The newly minted business school grad noted that he had originally struggled with choosing between applying to a highly ranked full-time program and having the traditional MBA experience, or participating in a part-time online program while simultaneously being able to take advantage of a work opportunity.

"I had classmates enmeshed in the day-to-day problems of running a South Dakota oil field, building a new product at Google, or teaching a class at the Naval Academy," he recalled."These experiences and problems get brought into the classroom, into Access Weekend discussions, and into group chats. You also take those relationships, that collective knowledge, and unique perspective on problems with you.

In addition to the Access Weekends, Adrian-Karlin pointed to other details that made his experience at the Tepper School"cool and special," including getting a tour of Google from a current Googler and having a classmate graduate via robot."I'm talking full-on crossing the stage via telepresence," he said.

"I got ... the ability to tailor my classroom experience to my needs and abilities, all the while having access to all of the resources on campus as well," said Gadde."Through this experience, I not only was able to open doors into industries that I had no access to before like venture capital, but also [into] a cohort of amazing fellow students that I can turn to whenever I am confronted with issues that are outside my area of expertise.
