The Kellogg-Schulich EMBA program placed 27th globally in the 2012 Financial Times ranking, finishing ahead of the Stern School of Business at New York University, Michigan, Columbia, Cornell and UCLA, and behind Kellogg and IMD. Among EMBA programs based in North America or involving North American schools, the Kellogg-Schulich EMBA ranked seventh overall. Among programs based outside of North American or involving schools outside North America, the Kellogg-Schulich EMBA placed 15th. And among consortia programs (EMBAs delivered by two or more schools), Schulich was 10th in the world. Among the top 10 consortia EMBAs, three belong to the Kellogg network of EMBA partner schools: Kellogg-Schulich, Kellogg-WHU Beisheim (based in Germany) and Kellogg-Hong Kong University of Science & Technology (which ranked number one in the world for the third straight year).
