The Amos Tuck School of Business Administration (or the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth, as it is now called) is the graduate business school of Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire. Founded in 1900, Tuck is the oldest graduate school of business in the world, and was the first institution to offer master's degrees in the field of business administration. Tuck is one of six Ivy League business schools and it consistently ranks in the top five in many business school rankings.

Tuck grants only one degree, the Master of Business Administration (MBA), alongside shorter programs for executives and recent college graduates, although there are opportunities for dual degrees with other institutions. The school places a heavy emphasis on its tight-knit and residential character, and has a student population that hovers near 500 students and a full-time faculty of 46. Tuck claims over 8,400 living alumni in a variety of fields, with the highest rate of alumni donation of any business school. (Full article...)
