As far as I can tell, Wentworth is still an independent nonprofit. From what I hear, they are doing pretty well in their niche. The current president is retiring this spring, after serving 13 years, and the choice of the new president is to be announced next month.
Of course, the logo is tacky enough to look like one of those career schools. It actually reminds me of the logo of the for-profit "Art Institutes". According to Wikipedia, they used to have over 50 campuses around the country, of which just 8 campuses in the south survive. The Art Institute in Boston closed in 2017.
