Understood - but please stop saying better or worse. All schools have great traits and not so great. What you are likely talking about is a US News ranking - but that doesn’t make any better or worse.
As @Mwfan1921 notes, Babson is known as the top school for entrepreneurs. It’s built into their culture. It’s in everything they do. With a 22% admit rate and a 31-34 ACT range (comparable to some top schools), perhaps your dad can get on board. This isn’t where you go to study the liberal arts though (although they offer some) - this is where you go for business/entrepreneurship. You can also cross register at Brandeis, Wellesley, Regis, and Franklin Olin. btw - Babson is also known for top placement and showed up on a link today for top outcomes on a different CC thread.
Here’s a list, from Princeton Review, of top schools for entrepreneurs. It doesn’t necessarily match your dad’s needs - but perhaps you’ll find something on here that can work. Of course, the student spirit for entrepreneurship will be most important and perhaps you’ll find more elsewhere - as the academic offerings will likely be more broad than a top ranked LAC.
Keep your chin up - and good luck.
