<p>Expect no love from CC. Lots of passive/aggressive signals from students and parents. Ignore them. Check the common data set for chances (at any college you apply to).
My daughter is at BU. Similar profile to yours. She loves it. I think you’re in. Relax.</p>

<p>I really love BU - its been my #1 for as long as I’ve had any inkling of the idea of higher education and college admissions. I’ve checked their common data set (many times) - I’m just worried because even though I’m above their average student (slightly) - so many kids from my school are applying that it seems like my chances of getting in are drastically lower.</p>

<p>Haven’t you posted a lot of chance me threads here? Maybe that’s why you’re getting lots of views and not so many replies.</p>

<p>I think that BU is a match. Don’t worry about it! :)</p>
