Bentley

Rating: 2/5 (60 ratings)
Introduction
If you're interested in business, absolutely consider Bentley. If you're looking for liberal arts, steer clear. Although many of Bentley's classes are liberal-arts-based, there are very few people that actually choose liberal arts majors...and those departments are less than ideal as a result.

Campus Life and Social Life
As with many colleges, the party scene rocks your world freshman and sophomore years...then gets stale. There is some Greek Life, but it's a relatively small population and most of the parties are exclusive to frat/sorority members.

Luckily, by then you're 21 (or have procured a decent fake ID) and can go into Boston for a night out.
Academics
Academics run the gamut from breezy to challenging: but no one is so overworked that they don't have time to party (unless they choose to be).

Student Body
Almost all students come from New England, especially Massachusetts. This means lots of Red Sox hats and lots of middle and upper-class kids. That said, there are some kids representing other states, and other countries too, and in general the thing about Massachusetts-born kids is they're liberal enough to appreciate the diversity so it's all good.

In Closing...
that's it!
