These are the world's best-paid MBA graduate schools

The findings are a boost for Sloan, which placed third on Bloomberg Businessweek's 2017 ranking of US business schools

It is little surprise that the best-paid MBA graduates are from US universities. What is unexpected is just how much US schools dominate the rankings.

A new survey of the 20 best-paid graduate business schools found that the top 11 are all in the US. The Sloan School of Management at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology came out on top, with a median salary and bonus of $286,000, according to a survey from Emolument.com, a crowdsourced site for benchmarking salaries. Graduate programmes at Harvard and the University of Chicago finished second and third.
