After two decades of growing student enrollments and economic prosperity, business schools in the United States have started to face harder times. Only Harvard’s MBA Schools has shown a substantial increase in enrollment in recent years. Both Princeton and Stanford have seen decrease in their en rollments. 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 does not guarantee a satisfactory job on Wall Street or in other major 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 pre
pared for getting a good job?" The second major factor has been the cutting of American payrolls and the lower numbers of entry-level jobs being offered. Business needs a changing, and schools are struggling to meet the new demands.
