Among Best Undergraduate B-Schools ~ BusinessWeek

BusinessWeek's 2008 ranking of best undergraduate business schools continues to place the NIU business college within an elite group of b-schools nationwide. In 2008, the NIU College of Business ranked 81st nationally out of a very small group of 96 elite business schools that made BusinessWeek's final short-list of programs designated as The Best Undergrad B-Schools in the country. This year, NIU is one of only four Illinois schools to be included in BusinessWeek's short list, and NIU's ranking beats out other nationally known schools such as the University of Iowa (#84), Loyola (#91), and Fox Temple (#94).
