上期我在博客中提出了一个问题：哪所美国大学产生的CEO或企业家最多？

 

今天我来揭晓这个问题的答案：The United States Military Academy at West Point --美国军事学院，即我们俗称的“西点军校”。

 

相信大家听到这个结果会有点诧异，为什么一所军事院校产生的企业家最多？

 

其实我一开始也没想到是西点军校，印象中西点军校主要培养军事人才，怎么会有很多企业家呢？最近跟沈老师交谈才得知，西点军校不仅诞生了很多军事人才，也诞生了很多企业家。

 

可惜这所学校国际学生一般不能申请(美国政府和各国政府有交换学生项目，但不直接招生)，美国公民申请必须获得国会议员的推荐。该校录取要求非常严格，68%的学生在高中年级排名前5名，学生不仅要有很好的学术成绩，而且还要参加体能测试，一旦被录取，学费全免。这也是为什么2009年福布斯杂志将西点军校排名第一的原因（参考博文：福布斯发布美国大学排名 西点军校位列第一 ）。
