In the undergraduate list, William and Mary was one of four schools that leaped into the Top 25, having been unranked in 2005. The other three schools were University of Missouri, University of Iowa, and Bentley College.
In the graduate rankings, William and Mary was one of five schools who made the Top 25 after being unranked in 2005. The other four were Bentley College, University of Mississippi, Baylor University, and Florida State University.
In the 2005 graduate ranking, both William and Mary and Florida State University did receive honorable mention.
"To be considered in the top 25 of both rankings is a true measure of the quality of our program, our faculty, and our students," said Dean Lawrence B. Pulley.
The survey asks accounting professors, department heads and department chairs to name the undergraduate and graduate programs that offer degrees in accounting they feel most consistently turn out students capable of someday attaining partner status. For both the undergraduate and graduate programs PAR ranked schools that offer degrees in accounting, or accounting programs in which curriculum is comparable to schools that do offer accounting degrees.
PAR stated that this year's graduate ranking was the most competitive in its 25-year history.
