The best thing about Boston College is definitely the overall environment. No matter what type of person you are, there is always somewhere where you will fit right in. There are so many different types of people, groups, and events all over campus that allow for students to get to know one another and feel comfortable. This school is very well rounded and provides several resources and outlets that are usable by the students.

The business school, great teachers, and great job placement. A ton of companies come in to look for BC kids, and alumni are a great help.

The best thing about Boston College is that the emphasis is on a broad-based, rounded liberal arts education--not a purely career driven education.

The amazing sense of community at this school makes you really feel like you are part of something all the time. There is always something to do on campus, ranging from theater performaces to acapella groups to the various varsity sports. The people are very friendly, and the professors are very knowledgable in their respective areas. They challenge you to think above and beyond normal expectations, and to think in non-traditional ways as well, so as to expand your understanding of greater concepts.

We are very warm people in a rather cold city. Boston is harsh compared to the midwest (personality-wise), but BC is REALLY friendly. You walk around campus and people smile at you, hold doors open, chatter about their most recent service project. Service is a BIG deal here, and nearly everyone does it. Often you might know someone for years before it pops out theyve been volunteering at a shelter or prison or something since before you met them. Then there are international trips, and appalachia...basically, we are a smart campus that does good in the world.
