The Neely School of Business opened in 1884 as Texas Christian University's commercial school and was renamed after alumnus M.J. Neeley in 1967. Today, the school continues to evolve and develop programs for students at every career stage accelerated, executive, professional and traditional MBAs. In addition, students enroll in online courses before even arriving on campus, which ensures that all students have at least the same basic math and business knowledge, and prepares them for the rigors of the core curriculum concentrated in the first year.

All of Neeley's MBA programs divide students into cohorts to complete the required classes, breaking down an already small student body. Electives are available beginning the second term and can lead to one of eight available concentrations in areas like investments and managing customer relationships. MBA students have the option to earn certification through the supply chain management concentration, as well. Neeley runs international programs during the semester or intersession (the time in the winter between semesters), in which students study businesses in countries such as Chile, Italy and India.

Recruiters come from around the Dallas-Fort Worth area, particularly from the supply chain, marketing and finance sectors. TCU also has a supportive alumni network that helps many graduates find placement. While still in school, graduate housing is available, as are apartments around the campus, or students can commute from the greater DFW metropolitan area. The university hosts a big Greek system that MBA students can join, and the theaters, bars and museums of Fort Worth are within a stone's throw of campus.
