Belmont Named to The Princeton Review List ‘Best Business Schools for 2025’

On-campus MBA comes highly recommended by leading education services company, third consecutive year

Belmont University’s Jack C. Massey College of Business landed on The Princeton Review List of Best Business Schools for 2025, marking the third consecutive year for the on-campus MBA to be recognized.  

The Princeton Review's 2025 list features profiles of 213 schools receiving the "Best On-Campus MBA Programs" designation. The survey of administrators requested data on the program's academics, faculty, career services and other topics.  

"We highly recommend Belmont 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." 

Housed within the Jack C. Massey College of Business, students praised Belmont’s on-campus MBA for having a “great classroom-based education that is flexible enough for a working student,” in addition to highlighting that “the learning style is hands-on” and most Belmont professors are “working professionals and therefore experts in the field they are teaching.” 

Over the past three years, 22,800 students enrolled in the programs were surveyed. The survey of students 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. 

Another student noted, “Belmont has the feel of a small school with the professors and reputation of a top university.” 

In addition to its Professional MBA and Accelerated MBA programs, Belmont offers three other graduate business degrees: the Healthcare MBA, Master of Accountancy, and Master of Science in Applied Analytics. Demonstrating a continued commitment to preparing graduates for a competitive job market, Belmont expanded its STEM-designated offerings in February by earning STEM classification for both the Accelerated MBA and the Master of Accountancy—helping students build in-demand skills that lead to strong career outcomes and premium salaries. 

“A Massey MBA is more than a credential, it’s a launchpad for meaningful leadership and long-term career growth,” said Dr. Randy Bradley, dean of the Jack C. Massey College of Business. "The Princeton Review affirms the rigor and strength of our programs, the quality and dedication of our faculty and the learning experience and positive career impact of our graduates. This recognition is encouraging as we continue to improve the quality and increase the prominence of our program, showcasing the industry-relevant experiential pedagogy and expertise our faculty bring to the classroom. These are the things that define the Massey experience.”
