The average starting full-time salary for the Class of 2012 was $120,000. This figure accounts for all industries in which the Class of 2012 accepted full-time employment. The expected salary for a graduating Wharton MBA depends upon the industry and company in which the student secures employment.

Most laxers will require two years at Penn after their NCAA eligibility expires to get an MBA from Wharton. Undergrad/Lax at Penn is no guarantee of admission to Wharton for MBA. The $120,000 starting salary is in NY on Wall Street and is a salary you start earning at 25-26 years old, saddled with significant debt. You will have multiple rommates or live in a small/dirty studio for which you will pay more than half your take home salary. You will likely be layed off when the next financial downturn occurs. However, given the choice, I would prefer my son goes Ivy as well.
