Each month, the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC) surveys a random sample of individuals who three months prior registered on mba.com--the GMAC™ website for prospective graduate business students. Their survey responses provide an inside look into the decision-making process of people currently considering applying to a graduate business school program. The findings detailed in this supplemental report are based on responses from a total of 9,617 individuals surveyed between January and December 2018. Survey respondents represent demand for various MBA and business master's "program categories", including full-time MBA, professional MBA, executive MBA, and business master's programs. Each program category contains specific "program types". For example, full-time MBA programs include full-time one-year and full-time two-year MBA programs. Professional MBA programs include part-time, flexible, and online MBA programs. Business master's programs include Master in Management, Master of Finance, Master of Data Analytics, and Master of Accounting, among others. This report--a supplement to "Demand for MBA and Business Master's Programs: Insights on Candidate Decision Making" summary report--provides detailed breakdowns of 2018 candidate survey responses by a number of variables of interest to school professionals, including by program type, candidate country of citizenship and residence, and candidate preferred study destination.
