Lake Forest Graduate School of Management

Lake Forest Graduate School of Management is a private business school in Lake Forest, Illinois. It opened in 1946 as a response to the need for WWII veterans to translate their experience into practical business skills and foundational business knowledge. In 2004, the institution moved its campus to its present location near the Tri-State Tollway. As of 2022, its programs included a Master in Business Administration, a graduate certificate, and open-enrollment, non-credit executive education courses. The campus of Lake Forest Graduate School of Management is also associated with the Lake Forest Center for Leadership which offers leadership development consultation and customized programming to be held within external organizations. The school's leaders plan to close the school at the end of the 2025-2026 academic year.
