LeBow Rises in U.S. News and World Report Undergraduate Business School Rankings
In U.S. News & World Report’s 2027 Best Colleges, the LeBow College of Business’ undergraduate business program was ranked among the top 100 nationally.
This ranking, 83rd overall, also placed LeBow 33rd among business schools at private colleges and universities. Respondents to U.S. News & World Report’s survey ranked a total of 535 AACSB-accredited undergraduate business programs across the nation, putting LeBow in the top 20 percent of ranked schools.
As noted in a story on business-school news and rankings website Poets&Quants, LeBow experienced the second largest increase among ranked institutions — 26 spots higher compared to 2026.
“These latest rankings for LeBow’s undergraduate programs are yet another testament to our commitment to cultivating leaders through experience and preparing students to succeed in a dynamic and ever-changing landscape,” says LeBow Dean and R. John Chapel Jr. Dean’s Chair Vibhas Madan, PhD.
“By combining a strong academic foundation with meaningful opportunities to apply what they learn, our students graduate with the skills and adaptability to make an immediate impact and continue advancing throughout their careers, and it’s encouraging to see LeBow being recognized and ranked alongside other leading institutions.”
Elsewhere in the 2027 rankings, Drexel University was ranked 2nd for cooperative-education and internship programs, further demonstrating Drexel’s status as a global leader of experiential education. Like LeBow, Drexel also moved up from its 2026 ranking, placing 80th in the nation overall and 44th among private universities.
