Be a Success Story

At Bentley, our student body is a collection of more than 4,000 distinct stories. They’re stories of passion and perseverance, innovation and ingenuity. Funny stories, and stories about overcoming adversity. Stories about following dreams — and about changing the world.

Everyone's story is different and Bentley might just be the place for you to learn, grow and begin writing your script. Take a look at the student stories below and start dreaming of how your Bentley story begins.

Well Prepared

Trying to figure out how to turn your passion into making a living? So was Ryan. Working with his adviser in Bentley’s Career Services office, he decided to turn his love of numbers into a career in finance. Solid interview prep led to four internships and now he’s going to work for Wells Fargo after graduation. 

Ryan’s just one example of why Bentley is top ranked for internship opportunities.

Show off your moves

When Kyrsten was deciding on college, she wanted a place where she should study business and keep doing the things she loved to do. In her case, that’s dancing. 

At Bentley, we want you to play as hard as you work, no matter what you enjoy doing. Here, you’ll find more than 100 student-run clubs and organizations — including our CRAZE hip-hop crew, where Kyrsten feeds her love of dancing, reduces stress and improves her leadership skills.

A major that tells your story

Not every business student does things by the book. Mackenzie wanted a business education but was looking to explore her love of news and entertainment. Bentley's Creative Industry major was a perfect match. She’s studied web design and television production, wrote for a magazine while studying abroad in Italy, and interned at NBC Sports. And she’s just getting started.

With a wide variety of majors spanning business and the arts and sciences, Bentley's academic offerings are flexible enough for you to customize a degree to your individual passions.

Fly with the Falcons

Bentley Falcons are as fierce as they are faithful, and when it’s game day, the whole campus turns out, whether you’re playing on one of our 20-plus men’s and women’s varsity teams or cheering in the stands.

Jakov, a center on Bentley’s Division I hockey team, knows as well as anyone. His hockey journey took him to prep school and the junior leagues, but he had no idea how loud a crowd could get until his first game at the brand new Bentley Arena, where he describes the amazing atmosphere simply “surreal.”

Best of both worlds

Nicole wanted the varied job opportunities that exist in a big city, but with a traditional, close-knit college community she could call home. Here, she explores Boston’s diverse cultural and social scene without giving up the safety and comfort Bentley’s campus provides.

Make the world your classroom

Emily dreamt of going to Italy her whole life. So when she had a chance to study abroad, she knew exactly where she was heading. Spending a semester in Florence, Italy, allowed her to blend her business studies with classes in fashion and merchandising, all while making new friends, exploring a new country and growing in ways she never imagined.

Choose from more than 80 programs in over 25 countries — whether it’s an intensive one-week trip or a semester- or year-long immersion, you’ll find a Bentley study abroad program that matches your passions.

Tomorrow's technology today

Business isn’t something that can only be taught by the book. So when Brandon needs to dig in deep on a course project or research a real-life investment, he heads to Bentley’s multi million-dollar Trading Room. 

It’s just one of seven state-of-the-art innovation centers that help our students master the real technology being used in the business world every day.

Put your education to work

Vincent's first internship at Cigna was a mixed bag: He loved the company but wasn’t thrilled with the work he was doing. So when he had a chance to go back, he applied to be a developer and discovered how much he loved the intersection of coding and business. 

It's just one example of how Bentley's internship program gives you practice, hands-on experience to put your studies to work.

A community of inclusion

Today’s business world is led by a diverse group of innovators and leaders. So we want our campus to reflect that diversity — in our students, our faculty and our staff. Here, a commitment to diversity isn’t just something we talk about, it’s one of our core beliefs and part of our DNA. 

Provost Donna Maria Blancero is just one example. As someone who grew up as a Puerto Rican woman in New York City, she brings a valuable perspective on the progress made in diversity and inclusion.

Leadership through service

As children, Veronica and Katelyn were mentored and tutored by Bentley students doing a service-learning project. The experience changed their lives and put the twins on the path toward attending Bentley themselves.

Now, they’re two of the 1,000-plus Bentley students who take part in service-learning each year. The work helps them become more informed and involved regarding the world beyond campus and gives them the key civic skills today’s top employers crave.
