Private college ยท Waterville, Maine
Thomas College is a private college with graduate business programs in Waterville, Maine. The institution is accredited by the New England Commission on Higher Education.
Federal reporting puts graduate enrollment at 109 students, alongside 647 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. Format availability changes; confirm the current lineup with the school before planning around it.
It is the only school in Waterville in this directory - the other 3 MBA program options in Maine are elsewhere in the state, so weigh travel time against fit before ruling them out.

Among the 4 schools in MBA Lab's Maine MBA programs directory that report a figure, Thomas College ranks 4th 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.
