The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB International) accredits the college in both business and accounting.

“It’s great to see our undergraduate ranking moving up in this national rank,” said Raisbeck Endowed Dean David Spalding. “The credit for this success is the great work of our internationally known faculty and talented staff who support business students throughout the year.”

Business students are supported in many ways.

For example, Ivy students have access to professionals in the college’s Writing and Speaking Center and Business Career Services departments, at no additional charge. “In those departments, our staff helps students improve their communications, their search, and preparation for internships, interviews, and ultimately full-time employment,” Spalding said.

“We also continuously assess our curriculum and offer new programs when we know they will benefit our students and their future employers.”
