Babson Again Named No. 1 for Entrepreneurship in the Northeast

Listen

Babson College has been named No. 1 for Entrepreneurship in the Northeast for both undergraduate and graduate programs for the third year in a row by The Princeton Review and Entrepreneur magazine.

Babson scored highest in the region on The Princeton Review’s survey measuring entrepreneurship offerings on more than 40 data points, including course options, pitch competitions, and alumni entrepreneurship ventures.

The No. 1 nod is just the latest impressive ranking for the College this semester. In September, Babson was named the 10th best college in America and No. 1 in the nation for career preparation by The Wall Street Journal, and the College was ranked the No. 1 undergraduate school for entrepreneurship by U.S. News & World Report for the 27th time in a row. Earlier this year, U.S. News & World Report also ranked Babson No. 1 for Best MBA in Entrepreneurship for the 30th year in a row.

And, in October, Payscale’s 2023 College Salary Report ranked Babson as the No. 1 Best Undergraduate Business School by Salary Potential. The College was ranked sixth overall for mid-career pay.

The Princeton Review also earlier this year named Babson one of the Best Value Colleges for 2023. Among private schools, Babson was ranked No. 11 for Best Career Placement and No. 39 for Best Value College.
