LeBow Named to The Princeton Review’s Best Business Schools for 2025
The Bennett S. LeBow College of Business was named to The Princeton Review’s Best Business Schools for 2025.
LeBow was recognized among 213 institutions nationwide that the education services company named to its Best On-Campus MBA Programs list and and was also included among 177 institutions in the corollary Best Online MBA Programs list.
“LeBow’s performance in The Princeton Review’s Best Business Schools reflects our unrelenting focus on the combination of rigor and relevance across all of our academic programs and, in particular, on rethinking and innovating the MBA curriculum to meet current and future industry needs,” says LeBow Dean and R. John Chapel Jr. Dean’s Chair Vibhas Madan, PhD.
Additionally, LeBow was ranked first for having the Most Competitive Students, based on assessments by students of their academic workload and their classmates’ competitiveness. This characteristic is demonstrated at LeBow by students seeking out challenges and opportunities for self-improvement by participating in the Lawrie Advanced Global Leadership program, entering national and international case competitions and selecting rigorous, STEM-designated concentrations for their MBA studies.
The Princeton Review‘s editors weighed more than 60 data points in their selection of MBA programs for the 2025 Best Business Schools lists. The selection of on-campus programs was derived from the company’s surveys of administrators at 244 schools offering on-campus MBAs as well as its surveys over the past three years of 22,800 students enrolled in the programs.
The administrator survey requested data on the program’s academics, faculty, career services and other topics, while the student survey asked them to rate their program’s academics, professors, technology, campus life and other topics, and to report on their career plans and satisfaction with the program.
In The Princeton Review‘s website profile of LeBow, the editors describe LeBow’s on-campus MBA as having a “strong and dynamic curriculum” that “stresses practical education.” In response to the survey, LeBow students shared that faculty members “are really open to meeting with students and discussing classroom ideas in a different context” and that they “bring real-world issues to classroom for discussions and potential problem solutions.”
“We highly recommend LeBow and all the schools that made our 2025 best business school lists,” said Rob Franek, The Princeton Review’s editor-in-chief. “They share four characteristics that informed our criteria for designating them as ‘best’: excellent academics, robust experiential learning components, outstanding career services, and positive feedback about them from their students we surveyed.”
More information about this project including the methodology for the school selections, rankings and ratings is posted on the Best Business Schools site.
