I read that three years ago, BU placed undergraduates to live in hotels until they sorted out dorm placements. Have current students -freshman, sophomores, juniors- experience the same since then? and if so, for how long were you placed in hotels? how close to campus where those hotels? did it matter to you?
I’ll be a full-pay incoming freshman to BU this fall but the cost of tuition is not necessarily an issue. I’m weighing my options with in-state colleges and I’m learning that intro classes are overcrowded and services to students are understaffed. So my question to other BU students is how does it feel attending BU considering its large student body? Is it overcrowded and anonymous? Or feels like a privately and well-run institution worth its price? Please be as specific as possible. Ty!
Hi! I’m an incoming freshman trying to learn more about the biological sciences major at BU. Could you share with me how your experience has been? Are professors good? Are classes over-crowded? Every semester, do you get to register for the clases you need? Are classes offered interesting? Are other opportunities outside of the classroom available to most students, or are they so competitive that only a few benefit? And socially, is it difficult to connect with other through classes, clubs, dorms? Are students competitive? Is Boston too much of a distraction? Does the campus feel like a traditional college experience? Lastly, what GPA range do you see/know among solid students? Thank you in advance!
