Program strength: Newer dedicated Business major plus Economics & Finance; intimate liberal-arts model rather than a large standalone business school
Major options: Business major (14 courses); Economics & Finance; broad liberal-arts minors
Program admission: Admit to Centre; no separate selective business-school gate noted
Model: 97% of students gain hands-on experience through internships/research; business major includes experiential learning and access to entrepreneurs/executives
Internship / co-op: Strong internship/research participation, but no Centre equivalent to DePauw Management Fellows' structured paid semester internship
Distinctive feature: Average class size 18; 10:1 student/faculty; 98% live on campus
Placement: 98% employed or in graduate school within one year (Class of 2025); 62% employed, 36% graduate school
Compensation: Not prominently published for business on reviewed official pages
Employment geography: Official pages reviewed emphasize Kentucky/regional employers alongside national names; Centre does not publish a directly comparable top-destination-city list on those pages
Need / institutional aid: Meets 100% of calculated financial need; 90% receive aid
Merit / jackpot route: Lincoln Scholars: premier full-cost route; verify Fall 2027 cycle details
Financial/admission powerhouse, but small-school environment remains the major personal-fit objection.
