Santander US Funding to Support Bentley Students With Unmet Financial Need

A recent $425,000 commitment from Santander US will enable Bentley University to strengthen its financial aid program and help students facing immediate unmet financial need. Bentley’s goal is to support persistence, strengthen academic engagement and ensure long-term student success.

The university’s commitment to providing a transformative business education for all students, regardless of financial status, aligns with Santander’s longstanding dedication to expanding pathways to education and professional achievement.

Santander’s funding will directly impact students by reducing their financial burden, allowing them to focus on their academic goals, degree completion and professional aspirations with confidence. Financial assistance will be distributed through need-based scholarships and Finish Line Grants designed to help students facing financial challenges that could disrupt their college careers.

Santander’s support for Bentley students is part of its recent $25 million commitment to education, employability and entrepreneurship.

Bentley and Santander have successfully partnered in the past, collaborating on a multi-year program that provided study abroad scholarships to Bentley students.
