it's kinda hard to say for bentley. I got accepted EA and I don't think I had the volunteer credentials you have.

ACT: 25
GPA: 3.6
Class Rank: Top 20%
Recommendation: great rec. - economics & history
Essay: Excellent
Activities: winter track, national honors society, fbla, international club, erase club, editor of yearbook committee
Volunteer: church Sunday school teacher
Work Experience: cashier at a sports shop for over one year. Currently a HS Internship with a financial company

Honestly, I probably got in by a hair because my grades aren't the best. I take 2 honors/AP a year. My final grade for one of the honors class is always a C.

I think you have a good chance especially with ED. Bentley is my number 1 choice too
