Read about Bentley University’s position on Race-Conscious Admissions and the Future of Diversity at Bentley
To create the best learning environment, universities need to be intentional about diversifying their student population, attracting and then supporting learners from all backgrounds and welcoming differing and even conflicting points of view. That was true in the past, it is true today, and it will remain our approach. Bentley University will continue to use several factors to inform our decision-making when admitting incoming classes. We will, as the court instructs, treat each applicant based on their individual experiences, including how race affected their life. We will also continue to partner with organizations serving racially diverse communities to ensure we reach and attract talented applicants from those communities. We remain steadfast in our commitment to creating a diverse campus community.
