There are so many opportunities to do the things that you want to do. There are a lot of people that help you be prepared for life after college.

There are too many great things about Boston University that top my list. However, one that greatly stands out, and in my opinion is the most important one, is the resources available to you as a student. BU greatly tries to emphasize student growth, not only personally, but also professionally by holding career events, industry leader guest speaker series, classes strictly for the preparation and perfection of student resumes, and much more. Coming from an area where professional sources are limited, Boston University really does thrive to provide the world at your grasp.

The study abroad program. This is one of the biggest and most global programs in the world. They have a study abroad location for everyone, no matter what your major or area of interest. Most students study abroad more than once. One of the major reasons I chose BU was because they were the first college I've ever seen to have a study abroad program for psychology majors. In Dublin, no less! This is an opportunity that many college students don't recievce, and I believe it's what makes BU special.

There are many opportunities at this school. There are a variety of languages one can learn, extracurricular clubs one can join, classes one can take, etc. If anyone is bored at this school, it is their fault alone-- but that barely describes anyone.

The best thing about BU is its ability to present itself as a top institution. Bu takes pride in afew highlights of the university that separates it from others. Such things primarily include its infrastructure. BU undertakes new building projects to expand buildings and to add additional square units of glamour to university. Simply said, BU is best at being pretty. This is helpful is a student is into aethestics, especially during finals or other stressful seasons during the acadmic year since a beautiful spot to study may help settle your mind.

The best thing about Boston University is that it is broken into small colleges that really focus on getting to know the students and helping them to assimilate into their programs and the school as a whole. I already have personal experience dealing with the professors who will be in charge of my career while in school, and who will have the ability to form my career in the future.

The campus offers a very urban feel with being located right in the city, however the campus is surrounded only by BU buildings and a few stores so it is easy to miss the hustle bustle of the big city.
Sarah
The urban campus of Boston University allows students to have easy access to the beautiful, cultural and historical city of Boston. Other than the unbeatable location, BU offers a wide variety of majors and clubs giving everyone a chance to find their perfect fit.
Kristen
The best thing about Boston University is all the resources available to students. Conveniently located in the heart of Boston, students can easily walk over to Fenway Park for a Red Sox game, spend the afternoon at the Museum of Fine Arts (which is free for students in the area), or go to a concert at one of the many venues around campus. Academically, BU always has interesting lectures going on regarding its reserach in a variety of fields. There is always something going on so it is very hard to get bored.

Our campus is unique in the fact that we're such a residential campus. With a four-year housing guarantee, it's rare that you can find a city school that still has a strong residential community. We're also unique in that we're ranked in the top 10 American colleges for international students, so we have students from all over the country and the world.
