Princeton Review includes Rowan University's Rohrer College of Business in "Best 296 Business Schools: 2013 Edition"

Rowan University’s Rohrer College of Business is an outstanding business school, according to the education services company The Princeton Review (www.PrincetonReview.com). The Company features the school in the new 2013 edition of its annual guidebook, "The Best 296 Business Schools."

According to Robert Franek, Princeton Review senior vice president-publisher, “We consider Rowan’s Rohrer College of Business one of the best institutions a student could attend to earn an M.B.A. We selected the schools we profile in this book — 280 of which are in the U.S.A. and 16 are international — based on our high regard for their academic programs and our reviews of institutional data we collect from the schools. We also solicit and greatly respect the opinions of students attending these schools who rate and report on their experiences at them on our 80-question survey for the book.”

The Princeton Review’s survey asked 19,000 students at the 296 schools their opinions of their school’s academics, student body and campus life as well as about themselves and their career plans. The student surveys analyzed for this edition were all completed online at http://survey.review.com and conducted during the 2011-12, 2010-11 and 2009-10 academic years.

“The Best 296 Business Schools” has two-page profiles of the schools. They include write-ups on academics, career and placement, student life and environment, and admissions.  The profiles also have ratings (scores from 60 to 99) for academic experience, admissions selectivity and career services. In the profile on Rowan’s Rohrer College of Business, the Princeton Review editors describe the school as offering “a good location, good tuition and good environment.”

Among the comments from students attending Rohrer College of Business was, “The school has a good ranking within schools in the Northeast and has a tuition rate that could not by matched by comparably ranked schools. Short of someone else paying for my education, it was the best value, period.” Among other nods was one from an M.B.A. student who applauded the “accessibility of the professors.”

“The Best 296 Business Schools” is one of more than 150 Princeton Review books published by Random House, Inc. The Princeton Review also is known for its many categories of college rankings, its classroom and online test-prep courses, tutoring and other education services.  Headquartered in Framingham, Mass., The Princeton Review is not affiliated with Princeton University, and it is not a magazine.
