Ask a BU Freshman

<p>^</p>

<p>but i already applied directly :(</p>

<p>im just doin CGS
cuz im in love with BU
i love BU hockey team</p>

<p>boston
everything about it</p>

<p>boston celticssssss</p>

<p>and im not good enuff for boston college anyways</p>

<p>redoktober…i dont even have good subject tests so i cant do SMG :(</p>

<p>I also applied to CGS, sat4lyfe the things that RedOktober pointed out are examples of what shouldn’t even matter. At CGS you will be learning the same curriculium all other Boston University students will have to, instead of sporadically, you will be taking the classes all within your first two years… that is not a laughing matter at all.
Though I do agree, being able to have a more flexible course is likely to your own advantage.</p>

<p>yea coolbreeze u applied cgs on common app right
everyone is making it seem like it is a shameful thing to go there cuz u aren’t respected</p>

<p>i take it as a chance to prove myself after not performing as stellar as i wanted in high school.
and its still BU plus i wud get deferred regardless without subject test from cas, and smg
but coolbreeze i do know that last year like maybe 50-70 ppeople apply directly to CGS its a small number of people and about 14 ED to bu cgs</p>

<p>damn cgs=crayon, glue, and scissors. That’s pretty harsh. Well if I dont get into SMG, i hope they move me to crayon, glue and scissors.</p>

<p>

Its not a shame to apply there, and you are respected just probably not by many “Jerks” but thats it. I wouldn’t make a big deal about it.</p>

<p>50-70 in total? Thats surprising, but BU is such a great school many would rather attend CAS etc… with expectations if not accepted deferred to CGS, which is what typically happens.</p>

<p>dude but since the classes are fixed u can study ahead of time over the summer LOL or at least know whats gonna go down in 1st sem of college with ur additonal eelective</p>

<p>there wont be any surprises</p>

<p>u can get the curriculum</p>

<p>that crayon glue and scissors thing is actually pretty funny…</p>

<p>It is, right? The other acronyms are pretty funny and fitting too haha.</p>

<p>CGS essentially seems like high school all over again, which is something that I, personally, could never do because it’s so constraining, not challenging, and boring. Anyways, the Crayon, Glue, and Scissors thing makes me chuckle :). Also, Coolbrezze, don’t tell me you’ve given up on UoM already :(.</p>

<p>w/e cgs is still freaking hard to get into</p>

<p>a BU admission oficer told me it is really competitive this yr, and gets more copetitive every year</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I have a problem with this. You are failing your senior year of high school. Why aren’t you working hard to get good grades so you can get into BU? If you don’t put in the effort this year, you probably won’t next year either. I, personally, don’t understand why BU even offers CGS. It appears to be just another way to get money. I would never pay over 50k for CGS, jeez.</p>

<p>Motion12345 I’am just open to attending any of the schools I’ve applied to. As for University of Michigan, its a great school, but considering my 7th semester grades I will get a rejection anytime soon ( just have to complete the process by sending the 7th semester grades), my stats were below their average anyway ( as for most of the schools I’ve applied to)… reguardless I’ll be happy and make the best of my education where ever I go.</p>

<p>i cant bleiev we gotta send 7th semester grades wow</p>

<p>i wish i could just send a final year report
asdfghjkl
asdffghjkl
asdfghjkkl</p>

<p>^
I know right, oh well what ever happens.</p>

<p>w/e im not sending it it screw that</p>

<p>im not sending until they ask</p>

<p>never will i send these crap grades</p>

<p>Lol, oh no sat4lyfe… it is best to just get the situation over with and send the grades. However horrible they are to you they are your only senior grades you currently have to work with and make look nice…</p>

<p>ok dude wow even CGS wants them i seee…
i think im gonna be rejected from CGS but coolbreeze u will get in dont worry
its just sad accepting the fact that i am gonna be rejected from crayons,glue,and scissors</p>

<p>you said that BU will give you the money if they see you need it? is that what you meant or am i misinterpreting that? because if that is the case, i’m thrilled!</p>

<p>sat4lyfe thanks but I think your chances are better than mines, in all I would be thrilled with a acceptance.</p>
