Kent State University College of Business Administration and Graduate Programs Office

Kent State University’s College of Business Administration undergraduate and graduate programs recently garnered top rankings in two major news publications in consecutive years.

The college was ranked 166 out of 353 by U.S. News & World Report. To appear in this ranking, the undergraduate business program must be accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). Only 15 percent of business schools worldwide meet the AACSB’s rigorous standards.

Kent State’s College of Business Administration offers both a full-time (FT-MBA) and a professional (P-MBA) MBA program. The full-time program provides challenging and innovative curriculum that is combined with career development and experiential learning opportunities, while the part-time professional program provides the same rigorous education, but with greater attention to participants’ past experiences and current business challenges.

The Princeton Review does not rank the business schools in a single hierarchical list from 1 to 296, or name one business school best overall. Instead, the book has 11 ranking lists of the top 10 business schools in various categories. Kent State’s College of Business Administration was recognized for solid preparation in accounting and general management.
