MBA Lab is a small site. Here is everything it stores, and the one thing you get to choose.
Signing you in, keeping your session secure, blocking cross-site request forgery, and remembering this choice. The free tools also save your drafts to this device so you do not lose work — that never leaves your browser and we never see it. Without these the site does not work.

Private university ยท Bethlehem, Pennsylvania
Lehigh University is a private university with graduate business programs in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Those programs run through the College of Business. The institution is accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education.
The business school holds AACSB accreditation - one of 16 of the 17 schools in MBA Lab's Pennsylvania directory that do. It is the longest-established of the three business-school accreditors recognized in the United States, and it covers the school as a whole rather than any one program - a floor, not a ranking. More on accreditation.
Federal reporting puts graduate enrollment at 1,781 students, alongside 5,898 undergraduates. Total enrollment is not MBA cohort size - ask the admissions office how many students are in the specific program you're considering, which is usually a far smaller number and the one that shapes your experience.
Based on MBA Lab's directory data, the school offers a graduate MBA path and a part-time or evening MBA format for students who keep working. That puts it among the 7 of 17 schools in MBA Lab's Pennsylvania directory listing a part-time MBA. Format availability changes; confirm the current lineup with the school before planning around it.
It is the only school in Bethlehem in this directory - the other 16 business school options in Pennsylvania are elsewhere in the state, so weigh travel time against fit before ruling them out.
These questions are picked from what MBA Lab's data already says about this school, so they're the ones most likely to surface a real difference between it and the next school on your list.

School names, locations, and program formats are curated by MBA Lab and reviewed periodically (last data update: August 2026). Enrollment, accreditation, links, and any outcome figures come from U.S. Department of Education, College Scorecard (June 2026 release). Always verify formats, deadlines, and costs on the school's official admissions pages. How this data works.
Details below come from Lehigh University's own program pages, not from a ranking service or an aggregator. Each card links to the page it was read from and the date it was last checked, so you can confirm anything before you plan around it.

Among the 14 schools in MBA Lab's Pennsylvania business schools directory that report a figure, Lehigh University ranks 5th by one-year earnings. Schools that report nothing are left out of that count rather than counted as zero.
What these numbers are. Figures cover graduates of master's-level programs in Business Administration, Management and Operations (CIP 52.02) who received federal financial aid. At some institutions that group includes business master's degrees other than the MBA, and it never includes graduates who took no federal aid - so these are a directional signal about a school's business master's programs, not an MBA salary report.

"Not reported" means College Scorecard publishes no figure for that school - usually too few federally-aided graduates to release without identifying them. It is not a low number, and these schools are excluded from every average on this page rather than counted as zero. A dash under AACSB means the school isn't on AACSB's accredited list; it may hold ACBSP or IACBE accreditation instead, which this directory doesn't track.
MBA Lab's directory lists a part-time MBA at Lehigh University, alongside the core MBA. Formats change - confirm the current lineup on the school's official site.
Lehigh University lists $51,840 for the FLEX MBA. Per credit hour for 2026-27, totaling $51,840 for all 36 credits. Checked against the school's own page on July 26, 2026; costs change, so confirm before you apply.
The FLEX MBA takes about 42 months, requires 36 credits, and is delivered either fully online or in person. About 3.5 years on average (as fast as 2 years without a concentration). Classes meet: On campus, online via ClassroomLIVE, or a mix - mostly evenings, with some daytime and weekend options
College Scorecard reports median earnings of $117,962 one year after completion for graduates of master's-level Business Administration programs at Lehigh University who received federal financial aid. Four years out the reported median is $153,638. That group can include business master's degrees other than the MBA, and excludes graduates who took no federal aid, so treat it as a directional signal rather than an MBA salary figure.
Yes - Lehigh University appears on AACSB's list of accredited institutions. AACSB, founded in 1916, is the longest-established of the three business-school accreditors recognized in the United States (the others are ACBSP and IACBE). Accreditation covers the school, not any individual program, so treat it as a quality floor rather than a ranking.
