Art at BU

Hi,

I’m a senior in HS currently planning to apply to BU for early decision. I’m only applying for general studies at the moment because I’m not certain what I ultimately want to do. But, recently I’ve discovered I have a really strong interest in art, specifically 2D animation and comic art. I don’t qualify for any art programs at the moment as I don’t have any practice in this subject and I definitely don’t have a portfolio to submit.

But assuming I do work towards improving in illustration, is BU a good choice to eventually study and explore these interests? What does BU offer in that field?

What is your budget? Have you run the NPC for BU? If so, will you need any debt at all to study there for four years?
