<p>I saw the top 50 business schools in 2008 and University of Califoirnia-Berkley was on there.</p>

5

<p>Undergraduate (in order)
(1) Haas (Berkeley)--but you apply sophomore year for admittance in junior year
(2) USC
(3-4) Cal Poly SLO/Santa Clara
(5) UC Riverside
(6-7) Univ of San Diego/San Diego State
and Cal State Long Beach and Cal State San Bernardino are pretty good too</p>

<p>Graduate (in order)
(1) Stanford
(2-3) UC Berkeley/UCLA
(4) USC
(5) UCI </p>

<p>Stanford, UCLA, and UCI have no undergraduate programs (although you can take information technology at UCI as an undergraduate major)</p>

<p>Finance (as defined by Financial Engineering): Haas #1 nationally</p>

<p>Agree with the first two bedhead, but no way Berkeley is #1 nationally in Finance--that honor goes to Wharton (Univ of Pennsylvania) with NYU second and Berkeley/MIT/Michigan/Virginia all vying for third. (Stanford would probably come in after that group). Wharton's been #1 in Finance for the past 20 years--and that's not changing anytime soon.</p>

<p>Berkeley's a great school, though--especially at the graduate level (top grad school in the country overall (all majors) in my view).</p>

<p>Agreed. I was just riffing off what leo187um above said about the MFE, but I'll agree the MFE has a quite narrow appeal for finance firms that want quant jocks.</p>

<p>I actually think the original post shouldn't have really elicited a response about the MFE since it mentioned accounting and finance in the same breath.</p>

<p>Longer. Wharton used to be called the Wharton School of Finance.</p>
