Babson College Students
Tell It Like It Is
The exceptional entrepreneurial education is the reason most students decide to enroll at Babson. This school is known for its First-Year Management Program (FME), where students attempt to start their own businesses. The competitive business atmosphere is felt all the time and everywhere by the students and teachers alike.
“Babson business teachers are among the top-paid teachers in the country. All have been very successful in their field of business and know how to take their personal experiences and convert it into valuable a basis for teaching.”
“A majority of the faculty is excited to teach and is interested in their subject. They are always willing to meet outside of class and help students when needed.”
But does going to Babson mean all work and no play?
“Boston is a great college town to fulfill the needs of your social life. There is something for everyone."
“I like the Babson party scene. There’s a good amount of partying, but nothing so crazy that you need to take time off from college and recuperate from it all. There’s a good balance here. I dig it.”
“Personally, Greek life is a sideshow. They throw some good parties now and then, but not like what I would think of from a large school.”
“There are a lot of things I would change about Babson—workload, GPA deflation, and some social aspects of Babson. At times, I enjoy it, and at other times, I am totally ready to leave. Right now, I’m having a good time.”
Can you strike the right balance between academics and a social life to thrive at Babson? Get all the info you need to make that decision straight from the students’ mouths.
