The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, also known as AACSB International, is an American professional organization. It was founded in 1916 to provide accreditation to schools of business.[1]:2 It was formerly known as the American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business and as the International Association for Management Education. Not all members of the association are accredited;[2]:92 it does not accredit for-profit schools.[3] In 2016 it lost recognition by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation.[4]

History
The American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business was founded as an accrediting body in 1916 by a group of seventeen American universities and colleges.[a][1]:2[5][page needed] The first accreditations took place in 1919.[1]:2 For many years the association accredited only American business schools, but in the latter part of the twentieth century it advocated a more international approach to business education.[2] The first school it accredited outside the United States was the University of Alberta in 1968,[6] and the first outside North America was the French business school ESSEC, in 1997.[7][8]
Robert S. Sullivan, dean of Rady School of Management, became chair of the association in 2013.[9]
The association struggled with its Council for Higher Education Accreditation recognition in 2016. At a board meeting on January 26, 2015, the council deferred recognition pending satisfaction of its policy requirements.[10] The association withdrew from CHEA recognition on September 23, 2016.[4]
