<p>Hello,</p>

<p>Just thought any prospective student considering coming to Richmond's undergradute business school might be interested in the BusinessWeek's first-ever rankings of U.S. undergraduate business programs. The publication has released the schools in that made the top 25, and, of course, Richmond is among them. </p>

<p>Exact rankings will be released on 4/27, but (according to a BusinessWeek readers' poll) Richmond is ranked #1 (60%) and UPenn #2 (25%). I doubt Richmond will be ranked #1 in BusinessWeek's official rankings, but probably close to it.</p>

<p>Other schools (in no particular order) include: Boston College, Notre Dame, MIT, Chicago, Cornell, UC-Berkley, Virginia, Washington (St. Louis), NYU, Wake Forest...</p>

<p>Very interesting, dizzle. What's BWeeks methodology for this? I don't subscribe.</p>

<p>The rankings are based on several measures of academic quality, such as faculty-student ratios, average SAT scores, acceptance rate at top MBA programs, starting salaries, etc. When BusinessWeek's Thursday issue comes out, I'm sure it'll offer details on the exact methodology.</p>
