MBA Admission Statistics & Success Rates FAQ

Yes. ARINGO publishes one of the only independently structured and audited MBA admission statistics datasets in the consulting industry. The data is based on 100% of qualifying clients, not selected success stories.
This provides a transparent look at MBA admissions outcomes compared to official MBA acceptance rates published by business schools.

You can learn more about our evaluation process on the free MBA profile assessment page, or view the full MBA admission statistics dataset.
