Program Overview
Discover Bentley is a graduate school exploration program open to juniors, seniors and recent graduates from US institutions who identify as Black, Latinx, Asian-American or Native American. Selected participants are invited to our Waltham campus, just 12 miles outside of Boston, where they spend three days exploring what the McCallum Graduate School of Business has to offer through class visits, conversations with current graduate students and faculty, networking with corporate partners, and getting an introduction to the admission and financial aid process.

My experience with Discover Bentley exceeded my expectations. I was able to interact with people from various backgrounds, which allowed me to make connections even before I started my graduate education. Additionally, I had the opportunity to take classes taught by Bentley's outstanding professors. I’m grateful this program gave me a glimpse into life as a graduate student.
