Visiting Campus
Tours
Explore Bentley with a current student by walking around campus, inside academic buildings, and through student living and social spaces. During the tour, you will also see our world-class financial Trading Room and many other high-tech resources inside our classrooms and Student Center. Your student guide will provide you with personal information about student activities, the campus community and living near Boston.
How long and large is the tour?
Tours usually last for approximately 60 to 80 minutes. One student will lead a small group on each tour and the size of the group may vary from one to four families. Please be aware that our campus is built on a hill so consider wearing comfortable shoes.
Can I schedule a tour and an interview on the same day?
You can certainly schedule a tour and an interview together, provided there is availability in our schedule. Bentley is located ten miles west of Boston, which means you should consider traffic and allow enough time to enjoy your visit to campus. Traffic can be considerable during rush hour so listening to “traffic on the 3’s” on WBZ radio 1030 AM or consulting www.boston.com is a good way to be aware of time constraints.
When can I have a tour?
Tours are typically scheduled hourly on weekdays from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., but the schedule varies throughout the year based on exam periods and semester breaks. If you are planning a visit to campus during the summer, bear in mind that the Office of Undergraduate Admission is closed on Fridays from mid-May until mid-August.
Please use the appointment calendar to schedule a tour. If possible, we recommend that you schedule your visit to campus two weeks in advance to ensure appointment availability. If you require additional assistance, contact the Office of Undergraduate Admission at 781.891.2244 or 800.523.2354, or e-mail us at ugavisits@bentley.edu to find a time and date that work for you.
