Pace University’s Lubin School of Business has once again been named one of The Princeton Review’s Best On-Campus MBA Programs. The recognition places Pace among 208 business schools nationwide selected for excellence in graduate business education.
“This recognition reflects Pace University’s commitment to preparing students to lead in today’s dynamic global economy,” said Pace University President Marvin Krislov. “Through the Lubin School of Business, our students benefit from rigorous academics, experiential learning, dedicated faculty, and strong connections to New York’s business community. We’re proud to see those strengths recognized once again by The Princeton Review.”
The Princeton Review selected the 208 schools based on more than 60 data points collected from surveys of business school administrators and MBA students during the 2025–26 academic year. The designation recognizes schools that excel in academics, faculty, career services, experiential learning, and student satisfaction. Rather than publishing an overall ranking, The Princeton Review recommends MBA programs it believes best prepare students for professional success.
“Today’s business leaders must be prepared to think strategically, embrace innovation, and lead with integrity,” said Ajay Khorana, PhD, dean of the Lubin School of Business. “At Lubin, we combine rigorous academics with hands-on learning and strong industry partnerships to prepare our graduates for successful careers in an increasingly dynamic global marketplace.”
The designation reflects Lubin’s longstanding excellence in graduate business education. In addition to its inclusion in The Princeton Review’s Best On-Campus MBA Programs, Lubin holds dual accreditation in business and accounting from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) International, an elite distinction earned by fewer than 2 percent of business schools worldwide that offer business degree programs. The school is also recognized among LinkedIn’s Top 100 MBA Programs, while its online MBA program has been ranked among the nation’s best by U.S. News & World Report.
“Today’s business leaders must be prepared to think strategically, embrace innovation, and lead with integrity,” said Ajay Khorana, PhD, dean of the Lubin School of Business.
The recognition is also reflected in Lubin’s student outcomes. Among Lubin master’s graduates in the Class of 2025, 96 percent were employed, continuing their education, or engaged in service, while 97 percent secured positions related to their fields of study. Graduates working full time earned an average salary of $74,222.
“Our goal is to provide students with an education that is both academically rigorous and deeply connected to the needs of today’s workforce,” said Alison Carr-Chellman, PhD, provost and executive vice president for academic affairs. “Lubin’s MBA program reflects that commitment by combining innovative teaching with experiential learning that prepares graduates to lead in a rapidly evolving business environment.”
