Pretty funny to see UT, CMU, UNC, IU Kelley, and OSU above UVA.. I know there's a UVA circlejerk on this site but god damn whoever signed off on these rankings is smoking crack.

 

The rankings aren't just on investment banking job placement. There's way more to an undergrad business education than just OCR. Plus, I know plenty who would choose UNC or perhaps UT over UVA just for the better culture.

 

This is the finance placement specific ranking, not the holistic undergrad business school ranking. McIntire blows all of those schools I listed out of the water when it comes to that. It's as simple as looking at the destinations reports.

 

Penn Wharton, NYU Stern, Michigan Ross, UNC KF, UVA Mcintire are the most commonly represented undergrad BUSINESS schools on the street.
