What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on Bentley:
An increased number of veterans enrolling at a particular school means that college faculty are more adept at accommodating and supporting those with previous military experience. The VA reports that there are 32 GI Bill® students at Bentley. Since the total enrollment at the school is 4,288, about 74.6% of students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. As a benchmark, the Student Veterans of America puts the share of veteran college students nationwide at three to four percent.
The total spans all GI Bill® chapters, including Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. Active-duty military using Tuition Assistance are excluded, so the actual military population may be bigger.

If you have specialized military training, Bentley may take that into consideration and grant college credit for it. Check with an admissions counselor for details.

Beyond military training, ask Bentley whether it awards credit for life or work experience, CLEP exams, or other prior learning.
