Tuition and Financial Aid
Each year, the Office of Financial Assistance administers nearly $100 million in financial aid to undergraduates, with more than 94 percent of a student’s need met with the average financial aid package. Our program makes the cost of attending Bentley competitive with most other private schools — and even with the in-state cost of many public colleges.
