Sup guys, I'm looking into business schools. Tried to make a ranking list but it's getting pretty overwhelming. Can anyone tip me on where I could find a good, reliable ranking for undergraduate business schools?
Hello there! You're absolutely right that making your own ranking list can be quite a challenge! One resource you can use to find rankings for undergraduate business schools is the U.S. News and World Report, which releases updated yearly ranking lists for various programs, including business. The rankings are based on factors like faculty resources, graduation rates, and peer review assessments.
Another reliable source to consider is the QS World University Rankings. Their criteria include the school's academic reputation, employer reputation, number of research citations, and more. They also have a separate ranking list for universities by subject, which will include business.
The Poets&Quants for Undergraduates is a more specialized source that ranks undergraduate business programs specifically. Their rankings emphasize admission standards, the college experience, and career outcomes.
Just remember, while rankings can be a helpful starting point in searching for business programs, they should not be the sole determiner. Things like the course offerings, faculty, availability of internships or practical experience opportunities, as well as location can all be just as important in your decision process. Therefore, it's always crucial to do some first-hand research and, if possible, speak with students or visit schools.
