University Catalog
A student’s catalog year refers to the student’s first year of study at Bentley University (Summer/Fall/Spring). Degree requirements and academic policies are published annually in the Undergraduate and Graduate Catalogs as requirements may change from year to year.
Graduation
Graduation occurs when a student completes all academic requirements and their degree is conferred. Bentley has three degree conferrals each year but holds one commencement ceremony in the Spring. The Registrar’s Office manages this process. Students must apply for graduation by the deadlines to ensure their record is reviewed for degree conferral.
