Best Choices for Undergrad Business Schools?

Starting to think about colleges and I really want to go into business. Can anyone suggest some solid options for undergrad business schools? I'd appreciate both reach and safety school suggestions.

Sure, I'd be happy to suggest some business schools for both reach and safety categories.

For reach schools, consider Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, which boasts not only a strong general business program, but is also renowned in fields like finance and marketing. Similarly, the University of California—Berkeley's Haas School of Business offers a top-notch undergraduate business program and benefits from its location in the San Francisco Bay Area, which has strong ties to Silicon Valley. Lastly, the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business is well-regarded, particularly for its action-based approach to teaching business.

For target schools, consider the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas at Austin, which offers a robust business program with a solid reputation. Another option could be the Carroll School of Management at Boston College, which is an all-rounder school with a very favorable faculty-student ratio.

For safety schools, consider Bentley University in Massachusetts or Baruch College in New York. Both have strong undergraduate business programs and have good links with local industries, but have slightly greater admit rates than the rest, making them solid safety options.

Remember, the best business school for you will be the one that fits your career interests and goals the best, and where you feel the most comfortable in terms of campus culture and location. So, while you're shortlisting schools, make sure to consider these factors too. Examples of specifics to consider are the availability of internships, networking opportunities, and specific courses of interest.
