Refugees From Meltdown Bang on Doors of Elite MBA Institutions
Bloomberg News
November 14, 2008
Refugees from the worst financial crisis since the Depression are stampeding the gates of the top graduate schools for business, swelling an already huge crowd. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Georgetown University, Dartmouth College and the University of Michigan say increased requests for tours and interviews herald the busiest year ever for their business schools. Registrations for the Graduate Management Admission Test, used to help winnow candidates, have risen 12 percent this year, to 223,159, sure to beat the record set in the recession year 2001.
