BU's physics program vs. Carnegie Mellon's

<p>I have been accepted to BU’s physics program with reasonable Fin Aid.</p>

<p>I’m on Carnegie Mellon’s Priority-Wait-List for physics. CMU’s financial aid is $4K lower per year.</p>

<p>Any opinions on BU’s physics program? Carnegie’s program? </p>

<p>How does they compare against each other?</p>

<p>Any and all opinions are welcome.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>See above link.
No idea really. CM is a very well regarded school and known for it's Science programs. BU's programs are growing and the above link points out the money BU is putting into the Sciences.</p>

<p>I have a friend doing this at BU and he loves it and turned down an IVY to come here and do cutting edge research. After all how can you compare Boston, college town USA, with Pittsburgh? GO BU</p>
