Business School, Continuing Education, and business educational options

There are hundreds of colleges and universities in the United States that offer instruction in business administration; however, not all are on the same par. In my opinion, the clearly superior institutions meet the following criteria:  regional accreditation, AACSB accreditation in business administration, AACSB accreditation in accounting, on-campus residential instruction, a top-rated library and tenured faculty.

Lesser institutions lack one or more of these qualifications. Some colleges and universities lack all but one of them, yet they still boast that they offer quality BSBA and MBA programs. That isn't true. In fact, as Col. Potter would say, that's "pure horsehockey."

Here is a list of 20 educational institutions, some not well known, that offer degrees in business administration. The best schools rate four stars (****), others get three, two or only one star. They are:
