Methodology: How We Compare MBA Programmes

Data sources

• Fees are taken only from the provider's own published fee page, quoted in the provider's currency, with the access date and a link.
• Where we have not verified a figure, we mark it pending rather than estimate.
• Visa and work-rights information points to government sites, because rules change frequently.

Neutrality

• Programmes appear in comparison tables, not in promotional single-school pages.
• Ordering is not a ranking. We do not republish third-party rankings.
• No payment influences inclusion or wording.

Calculators

The cost calculator adds tuition, monthly living cost × months, visa/insurance, travel and other costs that you enter. The ROI calculator adds your fees to income forgone (current salary × months out of work ÷ 12) and divides by the expected annual salary increase to give a simple, pre-tax payback period. Neither calculator stores your inputs.

Updates and corrections

Each page shows a review date. Fees are rechecked before each major intake. To report an error, use the contact form with a link to the source.
