Data for the rankings came from surveys distributed to participating schools and to alumni, with 61 schools included in this year’s ranking.\n\n\n\"Preparing students for what comes next in their careers is both challenging and deeply rewarding work,” said Dr. Antoinette Farmer-Thompson, President of Strayer University. “This ranking affirms the quality of our JWMI programs and our shared commitment to helping students build strong futures for themselves, their families and their communities.”\n\n\nPoets&Quants based its rankings on three core criteria of online business programs, which include: admissions standards, academic experience, and career outcomes. Data is collected through both school and alumni surveys and includes a wide range of topics such as GPA, acceptance rate, student engagement, program fulfillment, and more.\n\n\nJWMI has consistently remained in Poets&Quants’ annual online MBA program rankings. Prior to this year’s announcement, JWMI placed at 8 in both 2024 and 2025. The program has also been highly ranked among online MBA programs by The Princeton Review and CEO Magazine. Since becoming part of Strayer University in 2011, JWMI has grown rapidly and graduated more than 5,000 students.
