Out of all Minnesota schools, only the University of St. Thomas landed on the Princeton Review list for having one of the top undergraduate entrepreneurship programs in the nation.

The Schulze School of Entrepreneurship moved up two spots on the list from last year, making it number 33, a university press release said. 

The ranking reflects the Schulze School’s strengths in academics; student engagement; student involvement outside the classroom; alumni entrepreneurship ventures; competitions hosted by the school; and scholarships, the university said in the release. 

The university awarded $1.1 million in scholarships and grants last year to students in the program, in addition to $234,000 in cash prizes for the competitions last year. 

“Our values-based, mission-driven approach is drawing students who want to make an impact on the world. In fact, 16 of the 32 semifinalists in our current Fowler Business Concept Challenge are social ventures,” Associate Dean Laura Dunham said, the release reported. “We are honored to be recognized and are thankful for our generous benefactors including Dick Schulze and Ron Fowler. Entrepreneurs will play a more important role than ever as we rebuild our economy, and we are passionate about preparing the next generation for success.”
