I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that Wharton is number one for finance and number one in the business week undergrad rankings.

#1 University of Pennsylvania (Wharton)

#2 New York University (Stern)

#3 University of Michigan-Ann Arbor (Ross)

#4 University of California-Berkeley (Haas)

#5 Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Sloan)

#6 University of Texas-Austin (McCombs)

#7 Indiana University-Bloomington (Kelley)

#7 Ohio State University-Columbus (Fisher)

#9 University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill (Kenan Flagler)

#10 Carnegie Mellon University

#10 University of Virginia (McIntire)

#12 University of Southern California (Marshall)

#13 University of Florida (Warrington)

#13 University of Wisconsin-Madison

#15 University of Washington

#16 University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign

#17 Washington University-St Louis (Olin)

#18 Boston College (Carroll)

#18 University of Maryland-College Park (Smith)

#18 University of Notre Dame

#21 Pennsylvania State University-University Park (Smeal)

#21 Purdue University-West Lafayette (Krannert)

#21 University Of Minnesota-Twin Cities (Carlson)

(from 2005)

Business Week already said that they were planning to do their undergraduate business rankings only every two to three years--and they don't do separate rankings for separate disciplines like finance.

Those rankings are about as far off and completely meaningless as the rankings they have for accounting (see other thread).

Way to go BW, because we all know that Cornell trumps Wharton in finance! I'm sorry, but AEM doesn't even match Stern for finance (please don't take this personally Big Red; I am not trying to discredit you as a fine institution.)
