http://www.find-mba.com/board/18859 en Aston is not in the FT 2011 Ranking - FIND MBA Discussion Board Mon, 31 Jan 2011 13:53:00 +0200 http://www.find-mba.com/board/18859/last#18859 Hi all, Does anyone know why ABS isn't in the rankings? According to the Financial Time 2011 rankings, Aston is not included ! Mon, 31 Jan 2011 18:03:00 +0200 http://www.find-mba.com/board/18859/last#18860 Aston, while a good UK school, generally doesn't get included in the FT's global rankings. Maybe in a few more years as the program has a chance to build its reputation. In the meantime it places quite well in the FT's European rankings, where it has been improving over the past few years. It's currently ranks 35 - in a cluster with Bath, Mannheim, Durham - about where we'd expect it for the moment.

It was included in the FT Global rankings for year 2010 (73) and in the Global rankings for The Economist which MBA. I have an unconditional offer for 2011-2012 MBA full-time. I'm gona have to do some more research !! Wed, 02 Feb 2011 11:38:00 +0200 http://www.find-mba.com/board/18859/last#18887 According to the Aston MBA director, “Aston Business School met the alumni response rate. But unfortunately, not enough of these reponses provided salary data.” Tue, 08 Feb 2011 10:39:00 +0200 http://www.find-mba.com/board/18859/last#18927 Yes, that's what i have been told! Aston should refine the alumni network and improve it. It's the weakest link in the School. Tue, 08 Feb 2011 13:25:00 +0200 http://www.find-mba.com/board/18859/last#18931 The alumni network is one of the most important elements in choosing a school in my opinion. Its a source of reputation with employers, jobs in the future and is an accurate reflection on the types of people you'll be studying with in your own course. Tue, 08 Feb 2011 13:30:00 +0200 http://www.find-mba.com/board/18859/last#18932 I couldn't agree more with you. However sometimes weaknesses are present in anything. At Aston, unfortunately it's the alumni network. I have received an unconditional offer but I am very skeptical and do not know if i should invest my time and money at Aston. Mon, 09 May 2011 10:41:00 +0200 http://www.find-mba.com/board/18859/last#19964 Even I too hold the unconditional offer from ASton for Sep 2011. Not sure what reason its missing.
