BUFFALO, N.Y. – The University at Buffalo School of Management is again ranked as one of the country’s best undergraduate business programs in the 2014 edition of “America’s Best Colleges” by U.S. News and World Report.

The UB School of Management is tied for No. 86, higher than any other business school in the State University of New York system.

The ranking was culled from a list of more than 680 schools accredited by AACSB International - The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, positioning the school in the top 15% of accredited undergraduate business programs.

Based on a survey to deans and senior faculty at accredited schools, the ranking asks participants to rate the quality of all programs they are familiar with on a scale of 1 (marginal) to 5 (distinguished).

The magazine ranks UB among the top 10 universities nationwide for students graduating with the least debt. UB is No. 3 among public universities; it's No. 9 among public and private universities.

UB as a whole is ranked No. 51 among all public universities in the U.S. and is No. 109 among both public and private universities in the country, again earning the distinction as one of the nation's "Best National Universities," according to U.S. News and World Report.
