Undergrad Entrepreneurial Colleges

I'm currently pursuing my undergrad degree at Western Washington University. I want to transfer to a school that is going to be good for entrepreneurial studies. I checked out the list on entrepreneur.com, but I'm not sure how reliable that website is. I can't seem to find out how the list was complied. Does anyone know any reliable ranking site for entrepreneurial colleges, or know how entrepreneur's list was created? Businessweek doesn't have a list for entrepreneurship either.

No school is going to teach you to be an entrepreneur, it's in your soul or isn't. Perhaps what you want is some solid, foundation business skills that you will get at any good business program?

Thanks to both replies. I guess the field is more reliant on mentorship as opposed to college education

By the way, does anyone have a link to view the full list on the US News site?

The link he posted clearly says you need to pay for the premium version to see the whole list at the bottom of the list itself. Perhaps you should start by looking at what has been provided.

Maybe I should make my question easier to understand: I'd like to view the full list without paying. Anyone know how? Located on someone's personal website who has access to the full list maybe?

University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has a really good program for Entrepreneurial Studies. It was voted #6 by the Forbes List. I'm thinking of applying myself. Good luck

GO TO BABSON.

many say that entrepreneurship cannot be "taught", but how to "think and act" like an entrepreneur can be learned-- and boy does babson teach it.

Give U Dayton a look.


It has a program rated #4 in the nation by Entrepreneur Magazine, and each participant is REQUIRED to start their own business with a loan provided by the school. In addition, E-students manage the operation of campus facilities, and manage $11 mil. of UD's endowment...
