After two decades of growing student enrollments and economic prosperity, business schools in

the United Stales have started to face harder times. Only Harvard's MBA School has shown a

substantial increase in enrollments in recent years. Both Princeton and Stanford have seen decreases

in their enrollments. Since 1990, the number of people receiving Masters in Business Administration

(MBA) degrees has dropped about 3 percent to 75,000, and the trend of lower-enrollment rates is

expected to continue.

There are two factors causing this decrease in students seeking an MBA degree. The first one is

that many graduates of four-year colleges are finding that an MBA degree does not guarantee a plush

job on Wall Street or in other financial districts of major American Cities. Many of the entry-level

management jobs are going to students graduating with Master of Arts degrees in English and the

humanities as well as those holding MBA degrees. Students have asked the question "Is an MBA

degree really what I need to be best prepared for getting a good job?" The second major factor has

been the cutting of American payrolls and the lower number of entry-level jobs being offered.

Business needs are changing, and MBA schools are struggling to meet the new demands.
