BOWLING GREEN, Ohio – Consistently acknowledged for its flexibility and quality academic offerings, the Bowling Green State University Online MBA program has once again been recognized by U.S. News & World Report as among the very best in Ohio and the nation for 2024.

The BGSU Online MBA program, based in the Allen W. and Carol M. Schmidthorst College of Business, soared in this year's rankings to No. 6 in Ohio and No. 120 in the nation, up more than 40 spots nationally in 2023.

New for 2024, BGSU online graduate business programs also rank No. 1 overall in the nation for student engagement. The metric examines the extent to which an online degree program enables students to effectively interact with instructors and classmates as they would in an on-campus environment.

Additionally, the University's collective master's degree offerings in business rank second best in Ohio and No. 77 in the nation, according to U.S News and World Report.
