Please do not get BC confused with BU. Both are universities, and that's all they have in common. BC is in a beautiful suburb and has an infinitely nicer campus than that of BU. BU is on the rise, but BC will always be the best the city has to offer. Very elite.

Great school with top academics and professors who love teaching there. Very beautiful and safe area with easy access to Boston only a few miles away. Business school is always among the top rated undergraduate programs and most students have job offers by their junior year. BC alumni connection in New England is very strong. Tuition is high and the school is a little tight with financial aid, but if your kid gets in and you can swing the financial end, send her or him.
