Princeton Review conducted its survey for its 2022 annual ranking from June to August 2021. The schools were ranked on qualities such as the number of degrees and courses offered, whether entrepreneurship students have the opportunity to collaborate with students in other majors, the ratio of faculty to students, the percentage of students enrolled in entrepreneurship already, the total number of companies started by alumni and the number of mentorship and funding opportunities available to students.
