I recently received an email from an admissions officer saying that he was very impressed with the way I overcame certain obstacles in my common app essay. Furthermore, he gave me his contact details and told me to contact him directly if I had any questions. I believe this is a good sign for admission. Did anyone else receive an email? What are your opinions on the email I received? Bentley is one of my top choices and I really hope the decision favours me when we hear back, by the end of March.

Good luck to all.

Hello, Bentley is one of my top choices and I was wondering if I could get some input on my chances for being accepted.

@bhighschool123 Your SAT score is a little low, but you might be fine. I know that Bentley is a safety school for me. You can see my stats at the top of this feed. Best of luck to you.

Ok sounds good. Thanks for the input

Does anyone know when decisions are being released?

@Beesmom1 Look back on last year’s thread, it was released on the 21st of march so probably around that time, so close yet so far!

Yes @Beesmom1 the past 2 years decisions have been released on March 20th & 21st, so I would think it would be around the same date this year. My D received an email reply last week from Bentley admissions saying that they are working to have decisions released in the next couple of weeks. Patiently waiting down here in Texas :wink:

Good info, thanks.

Some decisions should be out, you’ve gotta check the portal and at the bottom right is the decision message. Good luck to all!

Accepted as President’s Scholar!

My son got in with a President’s Scholarship!

Definitely a strange reaction to this acceptance; I thought I would be jumping for joy like I did for U of Michigan, but private college tuition dulls this one down. :confused:
