Accreditation: What Is It?

Accreditation is a mark of excellence that affords external recognition of an organization's commitment to quality and improvement.

AACSB-accredited schools have the highest quality faculty, relevant and challenging curriculum, and provide educational and career opportunities that are not found at other business schools. AACSB is the most widely known and sought specialized accreditation a business program can earn in the world.

Less than 10% of the world's 13,000 business programs have earned AACSB Accreditation.
