Princeton Review names Clark SOM a ‘best business school’

The Princeton Review has once again named the School of Management (SOM) at Clark University one of the nation’s outstanding business schools. The education services company profiles the school in its Best Business Schools 2021 rankings, and includes SOM’s on-campus Master of Business Administration as one of the best in the country.

“We are pleased to once again be recognized by The Princeton Review as one of the nation’s best business schools,” says SOM Dean Alan Eisner. “The School of Management strives to be the business school with a social conscience, and the commitment and passion of our students, faculty, staff, and alumni reflect this vision. We are excited to see our MBA program continue to grow.”

“We recommend Clark University’s School of Management as an excellent choice for an aspiring MBA,” said Rob Franek, editor-in-chief of The Princeton Review.  The schools for the 2021 guide were chosen based on data from surveys of administrators at business schools during the 2019–20 academic year. The extensive survey covered topics from academic offerings and admission requirements to data about currently enrolled students and graduates’ employment.

The Princeton Review also surveys enrolled students about their campus and classroom experiences. More than 17,800 students at 244 business schools provided input for the 2021 guide. The surveys were conducted from 2017 to 2020; students were asked questions about their programs and career plans, as well as about their school’s academics, student body, and campus life.

The Princeton Review does not rank the on-campus MBA programs overall, from 1 to 244, or name one business school best overall. Instead, it focuses on topics that give applicants a broad range of information to determine which school might be the best fit for them.

SOM offers full- and part-time MBAs with concentrations in accounting, information management and business analytics, finance, general management, marketing, and social change and sustainability. The school also offers master’s degree programs in marketing, marketing analytics, accounting, accounting analytics, finance, business analytics, and management, as well as a certificate in business analytics.
