Coming back for my Masters after being out of school for so long, I can't believe how much this school has put into an elite school. The learning Labs, Trading Floor, Extra Curricular Activities and the Facilities are unbelievable. These students don't know how good they have it.
Overall 5
Bentley University is the complete package. No one that completes the curriculum leaves without a full time job. This isn’t the only focus as there are extensive student club options and activities, with or without greek life, to provide a great social experience. Students have amazing access to administrators to improve campus life.
