Acton’s mission is to prepare talented and dedicated students for extraordinary lives as principled entrepreneurs.

The Acton School of Business is a private, one-year MBA in Entrepreneurship program in Austin, Texas, taught by successful, practicing entrepreneurs. Offering only a full-time program, the school is based on experiential learning. Students analyze over 300 business case studies and participate in simulations, such as building real assembly lines and selling products door to door. The school is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) and the Association of Collegiate Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP) through Hardin-Simmons University.

Our Philosophy

We believe that clear thinking leads to good decisions, that good decisions lead to the right habits, that the right habits lead to character and that character becomes destiny.

Our Beliefs

We believe that each of our students can change the world in a profound way.

We believe in building profitable businesses, but know that living a meaningful life is much more important.

We believe in learning by doing. Our entrepreneur-teachers use the case method to help students develop the habits, judgment and character of a master entrepreneur.

We believe that clear contracts and a competitive grading system encourage the perspective, discipline and accountability required to run a successful business.

We believe in economic, political, and religious liberty. We are dedicated to graduating Acton Scholars who have a strong sense of individual responsibility and a willingness to invest in a healthy civil society.
