<p>what does it take aproximatley to get into the honors program at bentley as a incoming freshman, are there any accepted honor students who are willing to share there gpa/sat scores
much appreciated</p>
<p>Marcom,
What’s great about Bentley is they truly look at each application as a whole rather than just basing it off of one criteria. Generally, 8 percent of each class is admitted into the honors program so it is very selective. If u are interested in my stats I had a 96 average, and about 1300 SAT with a 700 on math (they like that), and they like that uve challenged urself, taken ap/ib classes, show a passion for business and get involved. Hope that helps!</p>
<p>hey thanx wat do u think my chances are

<p>Comments:
I got admitted into Bentley with their President’s Scholarship ($16 000) and entrance into their honours program. However, I do not think I would be going to Bentley.</p>
<p>All the Best for those who are going!</p>
<p>Marcom, ur stats do look worthy of getin money as well as possibly getin into honors program. But know this, Bentley doesnt base acceptance or honors program acceptance on solely an SAT score/gpa. You look well rounded and i hope u have taken ap/ib classes, cuz as u can c jis1 and i are both ib diploma candidates and have taken the hardest classes possible. Only time can tell, but u do look promising and i hope u come to bentley next year.
Another tip: Write your essay about how u hav been involved in business or have a passion 4 it. i wrote a killer essay, and as u can c u clearly have higher SAT scores than I, but they dnt give many half scholarships and honors program invitations. Make urself jump off the page and b more than a test score. GL! If u got any more qs u can pm me and id b glad to talk to u further</p>
<p>Also Marcom, it seems like ud b a good fit for the honors program jus by the fact that ur showin interest so early. I was the same, and having that motivation really does help</p>
<p>Its not that selective, or that my opinion. My friend didnt get into the honors program, but at orientation, he asked for admission into it and the next day he got a phone call saying they let him in</p>
<p>And i got in with pretty bad stats:
87 gpa, 2160 SAT</p>
