<p>so I was accepted to 2/7 of the schools I applied to (waitlisted at Georgetown and Brown) if accepted from either of those waitlists, i will likely go there.</p>
<p>Anyways, I love Boston College. I like the sports, social life, and the fact that the average student is more intelligent/motivated than the average Fordham student... However, it is sooo expensive and Fordham is offering me a $21,000 / year merit scholarship, and BC is giving me nothing at all. Furthermore, Fordham's honors program has 24 students, BC's has 100, so it seems that Fordham was right in saying they have the best honors program in the country. </p>
<p>WHAT SHOULD I DO? (im going insane)</p>
<p>Well firstly, it doesn't sound to me like a smart idea to come into Fordham's forum and post a thread that states its students are not as "intelligent/motivated" than some other college and then expect information/help from those same students.</p>
<p>I think you may very well feel more at home at BC.</p>

<p>Haha, I agree with AMILkita here, but I might as well provide a little insight.</p>
<p>Regarding Fordham, the honors program is great -- "Fordham Honors" looks great on any resume. If you go into NYC with "Fordham Honors" after grad. your opportunities will probably be endess. Honors people here get many privledges-- the biggest being that each class has around 6-7 people. You also got a great scholarship... another huge plus. It sounds like prestige is a big factor for you though, so you'll probably end up at BC.</p>
