The M7 business schools is a group of business schools recognized as having strong MBA programs, that are often highly-ranked in US MBA rankings. The name comes from the informal network that the deans of the aforementioned M7 schools created to share information with each other and discuss best practices with each other twice a year. Through the years, the group has been limited by the self-anointed seven institutions.
