I need help!!! Northwestern or Boston University

<p>Hey guys! I narrowed down my choices to BU and NU but like I really don't know which to go for. I am a city boy but want to do well in college also. I really like both schools and am torn! I'm really undecided with what I truly want to study but I am seeking some refuge. Please advise! =&lt;/p>

<p>What’s causing you to like these two schools in particular? People will tell you to go to Northwestern based on rankings, but clearly you’ve weighed other factors just as heavily.</p>

<p>Well both have given me the most financial aid. I was also at both wildcats day and multicultural weekend for BU and met many students committed to both. I’m first generation also so everything is new to me and I’m scared to choose to “wrong school”.</p>

<p>Northwestern’s system allows for double majors and multiple minors so it is a great place for an undecided person. The campus is so wonderful, offering any club, performance group EC that you can imagine.</p>

<p>Northwestern is the much better school.</p>

<p>If they cost roughly the same amount, Northwestern hands down, no questions.</p>

<p>I’m a BU (law) alum, with a Daughter at NU.</p>

<p>Needless to say, the campuses are incredibly different and you may have a strong preference of one over the other.</p>

<p>That being said, I believe that NU is the stronger school, and unless you truly fell in love with BU or had some other compelling reason to go there, I’d recommend Northwestern.</p>

<p>If costs are the same, NU is a much more prestigious school and will offer you more opportunities right out of college.</p>

<p>I agree, Northwestern is the much better school.</p>

<p>Well at NU, Chicago is only a stone throw away…</p>
