About Crowell School of Business
Preparing the Kingdom-Minded for the Business Realm.
Success in business takes more than a calling. Success requires resolve. At the Crowell School of Business, we welcome the resolute: kingdom-minded professionals who are driven to make a difference in and through their work.

Student Achievement
Business schools and programs must have an outcomes assessment program with documentation of the results and evidence that the results are being used for the development and improvement of the institution’s academic programs. The Crowell School of Business is responsible for developing its own outcomes assessment program. For reference, see an excerpt from our Measurement and Analysis of Student Learning and Performance, and Organizational Results for 2014–2017 for the undergraduate and MBA programs. Please see Crowell's Retention and Graduation Rates for our undergraduate and graduate programs and our Spring 2021 Graduate data.
