Top 10 Most Social Media Friendly Rankings of Online MBA Schools

Created by admin, Last Updated: June 24, 2021

For students seeking an online MBA program, one criterion is often the level of interaction available for students. Social media outlets provide a great way for schools to connect with current and prospective students, and many prospective students judge the schools’ level of engagement by looking at how well they do social media.

If schools want to attract Internet-savvy students, they need to be where their students are on social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and even Pinterest. Simply having a presence is not enough, however. Schools need to share frequently and interact with their followers to build a true community of fans who will share their content and help build the school’s fan base.

To help students find the most social media friendly schools, the staff at OnlineMBAPage.com compiled data from the social media accounts of 42 schools that offer online MBA programs and used it to create a list of the top 10 social media friendly online MBA schools. Factors that were taken into account to determine the scores include the number of followers or subscribers for each account and the amount of activity (posts, tweets, videos, etc.). One thing to note: The remaining 32 schools had very little social media presence which we hope will change in 2013 so get busy!
