Austin’s Acton MBA Students Ranked “Most Competitive” in the Nation by Princeton Review

Austin, Texas - For the second year in a row, the Princeton Review ranked the Acton MBA program’s students the “Most Competitive” MBA’s in the country and rated Acton’s teachers the third best business school faculty in the nation.
“Acton is a one year program, created by successful entrepreneurs and taught by successful entrepreneurs,” says Acton Master Teacher Jeff Sandefer. “Our students deserve the ‘Most Competitive’ ranking because they consider a ninety hour work week routine. Acton is like a Navy Seal boot camp for the next generation of entrepreneurs.”
The prestigious New York-based education services company’s rankings, believed by many to be the nation’s “gold standard” because they rely on extensive interviews with students, profiles Acton in the 2006 edition of its “Best 237 Business Schools”.
The program is an intense, twelve-month experience. Students spend eighty to ninety hours each week grappling with problems drawn from over 300 real-world case studies, selling products door-to-door and building assembly lines. In the Life of Meaning course, students dig deeply into themselves to find a “calling” in business, a lifelong mission that will allow their special gifts and true desires to satisfy a deep, burning need in the world.
“We think our students are destined to change the world, “says Sandefer. “Otherwise, none of us would be here.”
The Austin, Texas, based Acton MBA in Entrepreneurship is offered through Hardin Simmons University.
