Calculation of the ROI of an MBA is a little complicated process. As neither MBA is a tangible product nor your career. After MBA you keep on earning for your whole life and the enhancement of your earnings is directly linked with the reputation of your MBA institute. The value you generate through your specialization knowledge, skills you learned during the MBA program, networking made, and the application of your knowledge, you have gained during your college days and thereafter. So, the ROI of an MBA should be seen as how much social and economic status you achieve in your life. A relatively higher cost of an MBA usually corresponds to better learning and career prospects. It may lead to a slightly lower ROI in the short run but would lead to a much greater life-long earning and career satisfaction.
