Delta State excels in two national rankings

Delta State University’s College of Business has been identified for providing one of the best online MBA programs according to a new ranking from Great College Deals.

Editors of the list slotted Delta State as No. 6 in the national poll.

Each of the colleges listed in the ranking has tuition and fees of less than $12,000 annually.

Great College Deals’ methodology included a point system, which placed value on the number of specializations and concentration areas within the MBA program. Points were awarded for small class size and low student-to-faculty ratios. Additional value-adding components, such as student body diversity and the availability of special projects and internships, were also evaluated.

Great College Deals’ mission is to provide high schoolers and other prospective college students with information about top-ranked universities offering accredited degrees at competitive tuition rates. The organization is dedicated to turning students into smart shoppers who can avoid having overwhelming loan debt at graduation.
