What Duolingo score do you need for Bentley University?

The first-year page says Bentley only accepts exams completed in the last two years, does not accept self-reported English scores and does not superscore. The undergraduate requirement can be waived with an SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing score of 650 or more, among other criteria on that page.

For graduate study, the graduate FAQ says the test may be waived for citizens of pre-approved English-speaking nations or for those who completed a degree taught entirely in English, with documentation. About 30 graduate assistantships are offered each year to top MBA and MS students; the FAQ does not set a separate English score for them.

Compared with IELTS: undergraduates are asked for a preferred IELTS 7 with 6.5 subscores on the first-year page, and the graduate FAQ lists IELTS 7.0 beside Duolingo 130.

Bentley's undergraduate overall figure is described as preferred, but the subscores are listed as required minimums. The pages read do not describe a conditional or pathway route at either level, so contact admissions before applying with a lower score.

Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your Bentley programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
