In addition to its standard business school rankings released annually, US News and World Report occasionally releases a "short list" magnifying individual data points. This week, the news magazine takes a look at the ten most costly private MBA programs in the United States.

According to their research, average tuition fees for the 2013-2014 school year were roughly $62,000-an increase of $3,000 over the previous year and about $13,000 more than the average among all ranked schools.

Based on tuition and required fees for the 2013-2014 school year, here are the 10 most expensive private MBA programs in the United States:

Harvard Business School
University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School
Dartmouth Tuck School of Business
Columbia Business School
MIT Sloan School of Management
NYU Stern School of Business
Chicago Booth School of Business
Stanford Graduate School of Business
Northwestern Kellogg School of Management
Yale School of Management
As you can see, seven of the top 10 programs are on the East Coast, and just one-Stanford GSB-is out west. And despite their hefty price tag, applicants aren't dissuaded a bit from targeting these schools. US News metrics indicate that five of them fall among the 10 b-schools where accepted students are likely to enroll.
