Drexel University's LeBow College of Business was one of only two business schools in the Greater Philadelphia region to be named among the top 65 schools in Forbes's Best Business Schools 2009 ranking. Forbes based this list of business schools "where your investment in an MBA pays off the most" on the return on investment (ROI) graduates have achieved five years after earning their MBA. Forbes evaluated the investment achieved by alumni who received their MBA in 2004, comparing their earnings during the first five years after earning an MBA to their opportunity cost.
