2007 has already been a prosperous year for the Robins School of Business! I am proud to report that BusinessWeek has once again ranked the Robins School as one of the Top 25 undergraduate business schools in the country. In the magazine’s 2007 list, the Robins School is ranked 23rd-up two spots from last year. There are approximately 500 AACSB accredited schools and many more that are non-accredited. This is a remarkable achievement.

Virginia Ranked “Most Business-Friendly State”

Virginia has been designated as America’s most business-friendly state in the annual independent study, “Top Ten Pro-Business States: America’s Economy in the 21st Century”. The evaluation of state and federal economic development policies was produced by a top U.S. corporate relocation firm, Pollina Corporate Real Estate, Inc. This No. 1 ranking from Pollina builds on designation from Forbes.com last year as the “Best State for Business”.
