<p>hey, i want to know more about the student atmosphere at Boston College. Are they nice and welcoming towards international students? Or are they rich/stuck up? I’ve heard both. </p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Its preppy, if you like that you should be fine.I would guess that BC would be nice and welcoming.</p>
<p>I have a friend who goes there and it is a little bit of both. I think it’s a school where you have to find your niche. My friend didn’t come from a wealthy upbringing and after her first year she was telling me how everyone there seems to come from a family with a lot of money. She has made a lot of great friends there, regardless of their upbringing. For an international student, I know that there are a lot of them there so I imagine that students are pretty welcoming. My friend did say that there are some prince/princess’ from random countries which is kind of interesting. </p>
<p>Most private colleges seem to have an affluent atmosphere. Lots of kids have money; lots of kids don’t. At $63,000 a year, I wouldn’t say that many are running around with the “keys to the kingdom”. They just like to act like they do!
