Best b schools in California?

State Forums

<p>Besides Berkeley,USC, and UCLA, what are the best business schools? For undergraduate. I will be an out of state student. How well is Loyola Marymount university's business program? Also how about SFSU? Or SDSU?</p>

<p>I hear Stanford is pretty good too but, without stats and budget, it is tough to give specific advice. Most of the UCs have a business degree tucked under a broader Economics heading. In the CSU system, most campuses have a credible business degree. SLO, SDSU, Chico, Fullerton and Long Beach stand out at the top of the list. For privates, LMU is fine take a look at Santa Clara and USD too. As an out of state applicant, they are all going to cost you plenty.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot sir! I’m really in love with LMU, it’s so beautiful and I see myself succeeding there the most! Plus it’s near LA, so good internships and stuff!</p>

<p>Besides Berkeley & UCLA in Public Univs in CA, I guess there’s no Univs comparing with CAL Poly SLO.</p>

<p>My personal interest, Only one Univ , Only besides UCB. I think CAL POLY much more than UCLA, UCSD</p>

<p>There is a difference between asking about undergraduate business like degrees, and official undergraduate business administration degrees offered by undergraduate b-school and just business school in general.</p>

<p>For instance, most top b-school are graduate schools only. E.g. UCLA’s Andersen and Stanford GSB are graduate business schools only. They have no undergraduate programs.</p>

<p>USC, Cal, Cal Poly, UCR, UCI, Santa Clara, all have undergraduate business administration programs within their undergraduate business school. </p>

<p>The CA only rankings are as such:</p>

<h1>1 Cal</h1>

<h1>2 USC</h1>

<h1>3 Santa Clara</h1>

<h1>4 San Deigo</h1>

<h1>5 Cal Poly</h1>

<p>Cal and Cal Poly are the top 2 public programs. </p>

<p>UCI is not ranked, UCR is ranked #7 out of all the CA undergrad b-school. </p>

<p>Define “best?” Are you bumper sticker hunting, or is your primary goal to land a job after graduation?
Are you a foreign national? A US citizen in another state? Does cost matter?</p>
