I am looking for schools with honors undergraduate business programs such as the one offered by Fordham. Here is a link to get some understanding if you’re not familiar with it already:

Essentially, they choose about 20 kids and they have specialized courses for them and they travel together to different countries as part of the curriculum. It is very selective but also very enticing, as it is one of the only programs like it I have seen so far that is specifically tailored in the way it is.
My question is simple: are there any other top tier schools that offer programs like this? If so, do you have any first or second-hand knowledge on what the experience is like. I would really appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks!
A lower ranked school, but a similarly fabulous program - U of Cincinnati Lindner Honors Plus program.
How did you know about this? Do you know anyone who has taken part in the program? Did you yourself? I’ll check it out!
My D was accepted to this program this past year. Though she is going elsewhere, we were very impressed with the program and faculty. It’s also in a neat city and the on campus housing for honors students is awesome.
She would have gotten full tuition paid as well I believe, so if you don’t mind me asking, where did she end up attending? Must’ve been somewhere pretty good to turn down that program. What made her choose one school over the other?
She actually got the full ride. She’s going to UGA, where she received the Foundation Fellowship (another amazing program, but not limited to business students). If she wasnt planning to study a new language, she would have chosen UC. But studying a new, very difficult language and the co-op program wasn’t the best match. UGA was the best match for all of her interests and she loved the people she met and Athens.
That makes perfect sense. Congratulations to your D. I’m looking to play baseball in college as well so I understand there may be some sacrifices made in terms of my curriculum in order to get both a great education and play college sports. Thank you for your help!
