Babson's entrepreneurship programs ranked #1

Babson College has been ranked as the number one school for both undergraduate and graduate entrepreneurship programs by the Princeton Review and Entrepreneur Magazine.

More than 2,300 programs were evaluated and 25 were ranked for each level. Following Babson in the rankings for undergraduate are the University of Houston and the University of Arizona. The University of Southern California and Drexel University follow Babson in the rankings for graduate programs.

The reviewers examine the availability of entrepreneurial experiences outside the classroom, business fundamentals in the classroom, and how the school staffed their programs with entrepreneurs.

This is the seventh year of the Princeton Review and Entrepreneur Magazine rankings for entrepreneurial programs and the first time one school took first place in both rankings.
