Student Life
Campus life
- In 1968, Bentley moved from downtown Boston to Waltham, Massachusetts, to accommodate an increasing number of students. The first buildings on the Waltham campus were built between 1965 and 1968. Today, the campus stretches across 163 acres (0.66 km2) of land, and is accessible by the MBTA 554 bus.
- Bentley University's campus is divided into three parts: Upper Campus, Lower Campus and North Campus.
Sports facilities
- The Bentley Arena is the first standalone ice arena in the country to receive LEED platinum certification. Bentley’s Division I hockey program plays here and students use the facility as a “living lab” for academic projects on everything from data analysis to marketing and sales.
