MBA Debt Burden Looms Larger Than Ever

Noted: And there also are plenty of schools where MBA debt is a mere fraction of the totals at the elite business schools. At the University of Wisconsin’s Business School in Madison, the average debt burden for graduating MBAs was a mere $15,481–$106,889 less than Wharton’s average–while the first-year median comp package was $114,694–just $31,609 below the median pay for a Wharton grad.
