Bentley University Reviews
In terms of academics, it’s hit or miss. I’m studying accounting, so I know I’ll get a lot out of my career at Bentley. However, some of the profs I’ve had are questionable. I’d appreciate if more professors cared (or at least showed that they cared) about their students succeeding. And more leniency as well. Some are very unrealistic. I get that this is college, but I could get the same degree elsewhere for cheaper with a far easier course load.
Overall: if you join a sorority, you’re set. If not, good luck.
