US MBA program rankings

US News are another provider of MBA rankings. Perhaps less well known than either the Business Week mba rankings or those of the FT, they nonetheless provide a useful addition to the mba program ranking debate. The rankings cover the top 53 schools in the US and all have individual rankings for their MBA programs. You can compare these results with the FT TOP INTERNATIONAL MBA SCHOOL RANKINGS.
