CTON FEATURED AMONG THE “BEST 282 BUSINESS SCHOOLS” BY PRINCETON REVIEW
10/03/2006
Austin, Tx- For the third year
in a row, the Princeton Review ranks The Acton MBA in Entrepreneurship as having the “Most Competitive Students” in the nation and its entrepreneur-teachers among the
top three business faculties in the country.
In its just-published 2007 edition of the “Best 282 Business Schools,” Princeton Review collected institutional
data from schools, as well as the candid opinions of students attending them. The Princeton Review states, “An Acton MBA stands out in many ways, but primarily in the
experience in entrepreneurship it offers. Students are pushed, pulled, bullied, and coddled in an extremely intense nine-month program, but in the end students come
out with the skills they need to launch their own business.”
“The intense work weeks, our case-based curriculum, and our successful entrepreneur-teachers make
Acton one of the most unique programs in the country,” says Georgia Spaeth, Acton’s Executive Director. Students spend 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, introspection exercises help
students find a “calling” in business, a lifelong mission that will allow their special gifts and true desires to “make a difference”.
The Austin, Texas, based
Acton MBA in Entrepreneurship is offered through Hardin Simmons University.
