Boston University Top Questions

Describe your school to someone who's never heard of it.

BU is a uniquely urban campus. It's really hard to find a city campus that is so residential. We definitely have a strong BU community overall. Our physical campus is very integrated into the city and we don't have any standard "campus walls". We own about 1 1/2 miles of Commonwealth Avenue and nearly every building on that stretch is by owned by BU. We're steps away from Fenway Park, the Boston Commons and the other 60 colleges in the city. You;ll be a good fit for BU if you're looking for an open-minded campus that will allow you to really hone in on your specific talents and interests.

Boston University is a great school. It is challenging, diverse, and a wonderful place to receive an education. It is hard to even believe that people have not heard of BU, as it houses so many international students that it becomes clear BU is know around the world.
