Wright State's Raj Soin College of Business listed among best by Princeton Review
Wright State University's Raj Soin College of Business has been named one of "The Best 301 Business Schools" according to The Princeton Review's 2010 report on business schools released today.
“We are pleased to recommend Wright State’s Raj Soin College of Business to readers of our book and users of our site, www.PrincetonReview.com, as one of the best institutions they could attend to earn an MBA. We chose the 301 business schools in this book based on our opinion of their academic programs and offerings, as well as our review of institutional data we collect from the schools. We also strongly consider the candid opinions of students attending the schools who rate and report on their campus experiences at their schools on our survey for the book,” said Robert Franek, Princeton Review senior vice president of publishing.
The Princeton Review compiled the lists based on its surveys of 19,000 students attending the 301 business schools in the book, and on school-reported data. On average, 65 students at each business school were surveyed for the lists in the 2010 edition of the book. The 80-question survey asked students about their school's academics, student body and campus life, themselves and their career plans. The ranking lists are now posted at www.PrincetonReview.com, where users can access information on how they are compiled.
“Our MBA program is the first in the region and continuously accredited by AACSB International, a quality standard that only one in three business schools achieve in the U.S. Being included in this year’s edition of the 'Best 301 Business Schools,' plus the recognition our students consistently achieve in numerous national case competitions, once again underscores the quality reputation of our business program,” said Berkwood Farmer, dean of the Raj Soin College of Business.
