Abstract	Individuals interested in a graduate management education are seeking one of three career outcomes--to take their current career to the next level, to switch careers, or to launch their own business. The decision to earn an MBA or other graduate business degree is a big undertaking. It requires weighing the full cost of such an investment--the time, energy, and money (tuition costs and foregone wages) required to earn a degree--against the potential return on investment (ROI). The findings in the "2016 Alumni Perspectives Survey Report" showcase the experiences of more than 14,000 business school alumni who decided to take on the challenge of earning a graduate business degree. These individuals realized quantifiable returns on their investment, which they report in terms of high employment rates, post-degree salary growth, advancement in their chosen fields, and career satisfaction. The Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC) conducted the Alumni Perspectives Survey in October and November 2015. The 14,279 alumni who participated in this survey represent more than 275 graduate business programs at 70 universities in 20 locations worldwide that partnered with GMAC in this study. In addition to alumni contacts that business schools supplied, the survey sample was supplemented with business school alumni who had participated in past GMAC surveys. Survey respondents graduated from various program types, currently work in 122 countries around the globe, and represent graduating classes going back at least five decades.
