Bentley College is quite possibly one of the most highly under-rated business schools in the nation with an average incoming freshmen SAT of 1220. FAST on the rise and considered to be a “hidden gem.” Founded in Boston as the Bentley School of Accounting and Finance in 1917, it is now ranked 20th in the nation by 2006 US News & World Report for undergraduate accounting. It is also ranked 31st in the nation for undergraduate business programs by 2006 BusinessWeek, nearly tied with Boston University’s school of management and just behind Babson College (29th).
Job recruiting is highly criticized (by non finance/accounting majors) as being too focused on accounting/finance. Big four accounting firms recruit like crazy at Bentley. By senior year, accounting/finance majors can expect to have multiple job offers and to deal with stress in choosing among them.

Person 1 (MA public high school teacher): So have you made up your mind on college plans?
Person 2: I got accepted to Babson College, but I didn't get into Wharton undergrad or Cornell. I know I want to go into accounting or work in corporate finance though. Bentley College seems to have mad connects with the big four accounting firms. My brother is more entrepreneurial so he goes to Babson.
Person 1: Ahh, going into business I see. Congratulations on your acceptance.
Person 2: Thanks.

Get the Bentley College mug.A good business college in Waltham, MA, with notable programs in the Financial world (Accounting, Finance, Corporate Finance & Accounting, Economics-Finance). It is a medium sized school of around 4,200 undergrads, but provides large school academic resources thanks to its strong business focus. Not the school to go to if you're looking for ethnic diversity, though up to 10% of the school's undergraduates are from outside the US.
Known in business circles in New England as the Marsha Brady to the Jan Brady that is Bryant University. At Bryant, you get a lot of anger and jealousy about not getting accepted to go to Bentley, and you're left with a lot of irrelevant straw-grasping about how they have DI sports now, and how they were a university first, and other things that don't really matter. DI Sports don't matter too much when HS day visiting students are the only ones volunteering in class and having a general idea of what the hell is going on, and when the most notable occurrence to your football program is when your coach skips town after the final game and leaves his team without even saying goodbye.
In the Brady bunch, metaphorical sense, Bentley gets all the boys, while Bryant wears ridiculous wigs and says "The New Jan Brady".

Get the Bentley Schmeckle mug.Bentley College is a business school in Waltham, MA. It is mainly an institution for the advancement of wealthy people. Most students are rich and get in a lot easier than the smaller population that is amazingly talented and got scholarships. The campus is completely lacking in diversity besides maybe the Asian population. Putting whiteout over fresh snow does not compare to the whiteness of Bentley.
More importantly, Bentley discriminates on the basis of talent and money. So if you don't have a good amount of either, you are not currently a Bentley student.
The campus has organizations that were made to give students fun things to do and keeps there little minds busy. People make friends of course, although if a job offering came up, they would happily punch their friend in the face to get it.
About once a semester there is some kind of big fundraiser on campus. These are social events where people joke around and pretend they are helping people. They put on their serious face, and then forget why they cared and go party.
Republicans and Democrats make up the political spectrum at Bentley. These are the people that may have important influence on the political life of this country some day, so they are highly propagandized and told not to think. Oh wait, nobody tells them that, but they do it anyways. Some students are good and decent, but many more students are loud, chauvinistic, competitive, and lazy. There idea of working together is teaming up to kick dirt in a poor man's face.

Get the Bentley College mug.A school located in the lush heart of Lafayette, CA plagued by a plethora of white, spoiled wannabes complete with Mustangs galore and an overall mediocre sports program.
The tuition, a copious amount of money, exceeds the cost of some prestigious private colleges (Note: Students do not necessarily go on to attend prestigious private colleges, except in the case of family legacies/bribery).
While it is true that the school requires an application, somehow the amalgam of dumb blondes present each day does not necessarily justify the need for an application.
