<p>I’ve heard that FA at BU is in general fairly poor, so before delving into applying, how is the FA for transfers? I don’t want to waste my time with the application if I already can predict I won’t be able to afford to go. Thanks for any info!</p>
<p>not too great - but it is available.</p>
<p>From what I’ve read, FA is very scarce for transfers at the majority of private colleges and universities. I was lucky enough to get into all of my schools WITH money ( I think that had a lot to do with the fact that I go to an extremely prestigious LAC and did well there) but BU was a bit stingy. They gave me almost 18,000 less than Bowdoin and than Tufts offered me.</p>
<p>So while it’s possible, it’s not the best.</p>
