U.S. News & World Report 2013 Business School Rankings



Harvard Business School and Stanford Graduate School of Business once again tied for first, marking the fourth time in five years those two schools have shared the top spot. Last year, Stanford edged ahead enough to bump HBS down to number two.

U.S. News rankings are based on a weighted average of several indicators, including overall program quality, peer assessments, recruiter assessments, placement success, mean starting salary and bonus, average GMAT score and GPA and more.
 
The rankings track 441 master’s programs accredited by AACSB International.

Rounding out the top 10 full-time programs this year were the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School (3), MIT Sloan’s School of Management (4), Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management (4), the University of Chicago Booth School of Business (4), UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business (7), Columbia Business School (8), Dartmouth’s Tuck School of Business (9), and the Yale School of Management (10). The only significant shifts here were that Tuck slipped down two spots (falling from 7th last year) allowing Haas and CBS to each climb, and that New York University’s Stern School of Business, which tied for 10th last year with Yale, fell to 11th.
