Saint Joseph’s Online Graduate Programs Once Again Ranked Among Nation’s Best by U.S. News & World Report
Programs on the list include the University’s MBA specialties in business analytics, finance, general management and marketing, as well as its master’s in criminal justice.
Saint Joseph’s University has once again been recognized by U.S. News & World Report as a leader in online graduate education. The annual “Best Online Programs” ranking, released on Jan. 27, 2026, helps prospective students evaluate online programs at accredited institutions.
This year, four of the University’s specialty MBA programs ranked among the top 10 in the nation for business analytics, finance, general management and marketing, while Saint Joseph’s master’s in business programs for veterans ranked in the top 50. Saint Joseph’s master’s in criminal justice also made the list, coming in at number 28 — up four spots from last year — and the online MBA landed in the top 75.
“Our online programs combine academic excellence with flexibility to meet the demands of a rapidly changing global landscape,” says Haub School of Business Dean Joseph Diangelo Jr, BS’70, EdD. “The results speak for themselves: Our graduates excel in the classroom, the boardroom and in leading organizations worldwide.”
“Best Online Programs” ranking methodologies vary by discipline but are based on factors such as student engagement, peer assessment, faculty credentials, student excellence, and services and technology.
These rankings add to the University’s consistently strong showing among other national lists, including U.S. News & World Report’s Best Regional Universities North (top 10), Princeton Review’s Best Colleges and Best Mid-Atlantic categories, and Niche’s Best Catholic Colleges list.
