Established in 1919, Babson College is a prestigious private business school in the southwest suburbs of Boston. The college is particularly well-known for its 55 unique and specialized entrepreneurship programs, all of which are taught by successful business leaders; Babson is consistently ranked at the top of the list for entrepreneurship programs nationwide. The institution serves a small student body of around 3,000 and is highly selective, accepting barely over a quarter of applicants. Positioned on the outskirts of Boston, the Babson campus enjoys a fairly quiet atmosphere within reach of the urban amenities of the larger city. The college’s hometown of Wellesley features a large cluster of shopping centers and restaurants just west of campus, mostly along Washington Street. Several large parks in the area allow you to get outdoors whenever you have free time, and several bike paths make it easy to get around without a car. The surrounding neighborhoods can be a little pricey, but there are numerous more affordable options for apartments, condos, and houses in the area if you don’t mind a bit longer of a commute.
