<p>"but I don't think Babson has the reputation of either of the other two schools. Check out their profiles on the CollegeBoard website; their average SATs are well below the other two."</p>
<p>Not really, check US news. Lafayette and Babson are practically identical in terms of SAT score averages.</p>
<p>I went to Lafayette for the start of an american music abroad orchestra tour (high school)... It was pretty good... I've been to babson for swimming stuff (boy scouts)</p>
<p>The kids at Lafayette can easily get into NYC or Philly either on their own by car, bus or through organized trips as S did Sunday to the Met. His roommate actually went into NYC both days this weekend on organized trips.</p>
<p>just a thought - what are you actually studying juggieburger, strength of program is certainly worth considering.</p>
<p>And... considering you stated you are an international student, and applied to McGill, are you Canadian? As if so, financial cost is of course another concern</p>
<p>Babson is about 20 minutes outside of Boston, and is a great college for business, but it would be ill-thought-out to go there with the intent of doing anything other than business.</p>
<p>Yep. If you are doing business definitely go with Babson. And if you want to study business in Canada, look at Western, Toronto, Queens, UBC, Concordia, Calgary, Laurier.... and then McGill. For other subjects though I would choose McGill.</p>
<p>Babson is the best of those 3 for business. Entrepreneurship and International Business are their top 2 programs. There are a ton of internationals. I don't know much about Lafayette. McGill gives a great education for an affordable price and they have a great worldwide reputation. The weather is pretty cold though.</p>
