Education

BYU's Marriott ranked 'most family-friendly' business school -- Brigham Young University's Marriott School of Management was ranked the nation's most family-friendly business school by the 2009 Princeton Review.

The Marriott School topped the review's "Best 296 Business Schools" list with programs such as the MBA Spouse Association. The Princeton Review's rankings are based upon a survey of more than 19,000 business school students nationwide. The survey helped determine which school is the most family friendly by assessing how many students have children, how helpful the school is to students with children, how happy married students are and how much the school does for spouses.

The Marriott School MBA program was also ranked fourth for most competitive and tenth for best classroom experience. The school is also recognized nationally for its programs in accounting, business management, public management, information systems and entrepreneurship.
