Best Division 3 Colleges for Business?

I want to play sports at a Division 3 college and study business. Could you recommend some D3 schools with strong business programs?

Sure, I'd be happy to recommend some Division III schools known for their strong business programs, where you could potentially balance both your sports and academic interests.

1. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT): While it's Division III for athletics, it's certainly Division I when it comes to academics. Its business program, particularly in entrepreneurship and finance, is regarded as one of the best in the world.

2. University of Chicago: Known for its rigorous academic programs and successful Division III athletics teams. The university itself doesn't offer an undergraduate business major, but you can major in Economics or related fields and take part in the UChicago Careers in Business program.

3. Washington University in St. Louis (WashU): Offers a top-notch undergraduate business program through the Olin Business School, and it also has competitive Division III athletics.

4. Claremont McKenna College (CMC): Although it doesn't have a business major, CMC offers a sequence in Financial Economics which many students interested in business choose. It's part of the Claremont Colleges consortium, and student-athletes often compete across the five colleges.

5. Carleton College: Carleton offers an Economics major with a concentration in Business. They also have a strong Division III sports program with multiple sports to choose from.

6. Emory University: Its Goizueta Business School offers a BBA program that students apply into their sophomore year, and they have a variety of sports at the Division III level.

7. Johns Hopkins University: Though known for its medical programs, JHU also offers an excellent international business program. It's especially notable for its lacrosse program.

While these are some suggestions, the best school for you depends on many factors - the kind of business program you want to study, the sport you want to play, and the overall vibe of the school. I recommend researching each of these colleges further and considering a visit if possible, to see which one would be the best fit for you.
