(PRWeb) June 6, 2007 -- A new article on MBA-Business-Schools.com entitled "Get It While It's Hot: MBA Degrees Are Increasingly Popular," advises current and future MBA students on just how valuable the MBA is to prospective employers (http://www.mba-business-schools.com/articles/2007/04/get-it-while-its-hot-mba-degrees-are-increasingly-popular.php). MBA-Business-Schools.com, a top online business school directory, has the information and resources MBA students are looking for to either launch or further their careers.

"Get It While It's Hot: MBA Degrees Are Increasingly Popular," by columnist Jami Rodgers is one of many informative articles that report on recent educational findings and MBA trends. Rodgers writes: "Obtaining an MBA may be popular in part due to its ability to increase your earning potential. According to a GMAC survey, the average salary for MBA graduates is $106,000 in 2005.

In a recent survey, the Graduate Management Admissions Council (GMAC) discovered recruiters plan to hire about 18 percent more MBA students than last year, while at the same time cutting back the number of jobs for those professionals with undergraduate degrees. Students interested in higher business education can turn to MBA-Business-Schools.com for expert guidance and help (http://www.mba-business-schools.com).

The GMAC survey also found that recruiters are expecting to offer 28 percent higher salaries to applicants with a business graduate degree than other types of graduate degrees and are willing to pay 84 percent more to MBA grads than those with only an undergraduate degree. Dave Wilson, president and CEO of GMAC, said, "Employers are saying clearly that an MBA brings value to their enterprises." He went on to explain that employers find a winning combination in MBA graduates: "maturity, intellect, experience, determination and a willingness to invest in his or her own intellectual capital."

All indications point to the MBA growing in value to employers. Students interested in finding the top business schools in their area can request information from MBA-Business-Schools.com in addition to receiving insight into the value of an MBA and how to successfully apply a business education in one's career. MBA-Business-Schools.com features a bi-weekly column, "MBAs For Working Adults", which provides advice to those looking to fit a business education into their daily work schedule (http://www.mba-business-schools.com/articles/mbas_for_working_adults/).
