by Avery Ruxer Franklin

Rice Business is in the top 10 in eight categories in the Princeton Review’s newly released specialty business school rankings for 2023.

The latest accolades come on the heels of the school’s fourth straight No. 1 entrepreneurship ranking and second straight No. 4 online MBA ranking. 

Rice rose to No. 5 among the top MBA programs for students wanting to go into consulting or finance, up from No. 6 and No. 10 in 2022, respectively. Additionally, it was ranked in the top 10 for the first time in several categories, including best career prospects (No. 8) and greatest resources for minority students (No. 7). 

“This is the first year Rice Business has been ranked in career prospects, administration and resources for minority students,” said Dean Peter Rodriguez. “These rankings are a reflection of our continued efforts in providing Rice Business students with the resources to help them succeed during their time at school and beyond.”

  • Top 50 Online MBA Programs: No. 4
  • Best MBA for Consulting: No. 5
  • Best MBA for Finance: No. 5
  • Greatest Resources for Minority Students: No. 7
