Presidential Merit Scholarship (Half and 1/3 Tuition) purged from Bentley Site

I know that this year’s cohort of acceptances included many students awarded the “Presidential Scholarship” for half or 1/3 tuition discounts (from what I saw here on CC and based on my daughter’s friends who where accepted this past March). Info on this scholarships was on the Bentley site this past spring but are completely gone now. The more generic info is now on the site (no specifics on amounts or GPA requirements anymore):

Do any insiders at Bentley know what changes they have made to the merit scholarships? For example, what is the max merit that would be offered and what are he GPA requirements?

Thanks for sharing that @suzyQ7 . My son also got in this past March but did not score the presidential scholarship so we just could not afford the school. He would have liked to attend but just too much at $70k/year.

I too am curious now as to how they award scholarships and its amounts. Did the above section represent the current web site?

@MassDaD68 - yes, the above is what shows up on the site. No reference to presidential scholarships, nothing. Only the Women’s Leadership Scholarship and even that, no details. A friend of mine’s son is interested in the school and I was helping do some research.

It would be great if parents who went to the Open House in September could fill us in if this came up. I’m guessing Bentley is changing up the entire merit process, but there is no info on their site.

This Bentley forum is very quiet, unfortunately.

@suzyQ7 I think it is a good move by Bentley. I felt it was way to restrictive before to only offer 1/3, 1/2, or full tuition. The good thing is that the scholarship would increase each year also. But with only three categories they were not able to offer someone less than 1/3. It seemed like an all or nothing thing. There was another dad on this site that I remember was in the same boat as us. Our son’s were similar in their accomplishments and his son did not receive any money either. It was too bad we could not have worked something out financially. But life brings you to different paths.
