The entire University is a self reported success. After 4 years you realize that the University only cares about research and rankings. The curve system in the business school is totally rediculous. You're not graded on what you should know, but what you know relative to everyone else. That means that an even with a school full of smart people, some of them will fail to make the others look better. It also means that if a teacher sucks no one will be able to tell the difference because the curve will allow students who know half of the material to pass. Meanwhile the MBA program is a joke. They do zero work and come out with meaningless degrees that allow them to get better jobs than undergrads who work way harder for their degree. MBA's don't even have to report their grades. The professors flat out tell you you should only come here if you want to do reasearch and career services is only capable of helping 3.5 GPA or above get jobs at i-banks. In the end this place is a waste of money. Go to a state school that cares about the success of its students and then apply to an Ivy League grad school so that you get the name on your resume because that is all the Ivy League is really worth. You'll be way better off in the long run.
