Guide To The Top EMBAs In New York City Metro Area EMBA

If you live in the New York metro area and you want to get an MBA without quitting your job, you very possibly are in the best location to have your cake and eat it, too. From private to public universities, including two Ivies—Columbia and Cornell—in Manhattan alone, the choices are staggering. And if you just extend the arc of choices to less than a two-hour drive outside of New York City, you pick up another two Ivy League players: the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School and Yale University’s School of Management.
