Crummer Graduate School of Business at Rollins College

What Crummer Graduate School of Business at Rollins College does

Crummer Graduate School of Business at Rollins College is a private, AACSB-accredited graduate business school operating as a division of Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida. The school delivers a multi-format MBA portfolio tailored to distinct career stages: the Executive MBA (weekend-only format for seasoned professionals), the Professional MBA (hybrid with up to 45% online for working professionals), the Early Advantage MBA (full-time for recent graduates and career changers), the Accelerated MBA with STEM-Designation (12–16 months covering AI, business analytics, financial strategy, and risk management), and an Accelerated Management Program exclusive to Rollins undergraduates. Beyond MBAs, Crummer offers a Doctor of Business Administration (DBA), graduate certificates in Business Analytics and Entrepreneurship, and philanthropy/nonprofit certificates through the Edyth Bush Institute. Core technology is a hybrid learning management system supporting on-campus, online, and weekend delivery, with a 24/7 "Maddie" AI chatbot powering admissions inquiry capture.

The business model is tuition-driven and multi-streamed. Primary revenue comes from MBA tuition and fees across program formats, augmented by executive education (Mini MBA, custom corporate training, workshops, certifications) delivered through the Center for Management and Executive Education, and graduate certificate tuition. Programs are sold through a sales-led admissions process that combines website inquiry forms, scheduled campus visits, an application portal (with Fall 2026 entry deadline of July 1), and direct outreach by admissions staff; community-led referrals from a 7,000+ alumni network spanning 50 U.S. states and 53 countries are a material demand driver. Secondary go-to-market includes event-driven recruitment (MBA info panels, alumni networking, "Summer with Crummer" events) and multi-channel content marketing across LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, X, and email.

Crummer operates through four wholly-owned centers and institutes that constitute its extended product ecosystem: the Center for AI-EDGE (launched 2024, focused on AI's impact on executive decision-making, led by Dr. Jay Leibovitz), the Center for Management and Executive Education, the Edyth Bush Institute for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership, and The Rick Goings Institute (youth leadership). Leadership is headed by Dean Anil Menon with William Seyfried as Associate Dean/COO. Faculty include Eric Spiegel (former Siemens USA CEO and current special advisor to General Atlantic LLC) and Dr. Dan Biller (former Manager of the Economics Unit at the World Bank's MIGA). Crummer is recognized in LinkedIn's Top 100 Global MBA Programs for Career Growth, Forbes' Florida ROI ranking, Abound's Top 5 Florida MBA list, and CEO Magazine's Tier-1 Global Executive MBA designation.
