<p>This ranking is 10 times better than the US News ranking. UConn is at where around it should be at #53. I’m happy Villanova and Northeastern are getting the recognition they deserve! There at 400 or so schools in the nation accredited by the AACSB as having the best business business programs. There are roughly 1800 schools in the US that have business programs at the undergrad level. If your school ranks on the business week list it is among the top 15% of AACSB schools. Out of all business programs in the nation, these schools are among the top 3% or so.</p>

<p>This makes me really nervous about my choice in college. it says Terry College at UGA is 40 and kids get “lost in the shuffle”. I read my other choice, which is Emory, and cannot help but cry that it is #5! Why does it have to be so expensive!</p>

<p>Phew, makes me feel good about going to Stern this fall and being waitlisted by Emory. The USNews ranking didn’t really reflect that.</p>

<p>Don’t worry geniusgen…it is what you make out of your experience that counts.</p>

<p>I guess I can look at it this way… emory will be about 80k more than UGA in four years but four years after I cumulatively will make nly 40k more. Hopefully by then I can get my MBA from a great school that will make the big money difference.</p>

<p>geniusgen, I don’t think Emory would be worth it anyway because, as the ranking says, recruiting isn’t great. Do you think it’s worth it for me to take out ~120k at Stern versus almost free at UGA? I’m counting on the Stern recruiting.</p>
