<p>I'm sorry... I meant New England. ;)</p>
<p>About going to a big school-
I visited quite a few smaller campuses in the past month because I had to audition for their music school, and I personally felt that BU is definitely where I want to go. I felt so far away from everyone and everything at these schools. Granted, I could make it one year if I had to, but I just felt rather disconnected. I loved the feel BU had when I went up there to audition. Unlike the campus tour I went on during a holiday, there were students actually walking around campus. It's probably just a personal preference, but I liked the busy, lively feel it had, while at the same time it wasn't as overwhelming and intimidating as NYC may seem.</p>
