    Overall Bentley provides a pretty good experience. It is just far enough to be out on your own, but close enough to have the comfort of a city for students. Organizations are plenty and what they teach will come in handy for your future.

    This is an amazing school. The coursework and choices are vast and the classes are generally small. Most professors I've had are incredibly accessible and actually care what's happening with us on a one to one basis. The reputation od this school is getting better and better and I have absolutely no regrets with my choice and in was accepted to Columbia, NYU and Wharton.

    Expensive, but if you demonstrate need then the university is usually generous with its grants and merit scholarships. With the prospect of a $60,000+ salary after graduation, it should be a good bang for the buck.
