NYU vs. BC

<p>I'm just curious as to which school the majority would rather go to. </p>

<p>I had the choice to make between NYU CAS and BC CAS Honors and I chose BC (after a lot of thought...really hard choice) so I was wondering what other people may have done (whether it be honors for BC, or just regular).</p>

<p>Personally, I am planning on going pre-med with a major in biology.</p>

<p>NYU Stern for me</p>

<p>I would go with BC.</p>

<p>Eh, probably BC because it has more of a centralized campus. It is a Catholic school (which personally is a turn off), Chestnut hill area kinda boring, and BC is like Duke's little brother. (another really really big turn off :D )</p>

<p>BC. choose not even to apply to NYU anymore after i got into BC.</p>

<p>i think i wouldve chosen BC anyway even if i got into Stern (im in CSOM at BC). i need the campus, the unity, the sports, more traditional college life.</p>

<p>Why is this a "turn off," exactly? Care to explain?
BC is Jesuit, and that makes a world of difference.</p>

<p>BC Honors is great choice.
BCH and NYU would only be comparable if you were talking about Stern and Tisch in regard to the latter.</p>

<p>Honors > CAS.</p>

<p>Well. I don't want to get involved in any religion...</p>

<p>BC by far. Much better.</p>

<p>BC CAS HONORS beats NYU CAS</p>

<p>It seems like the general consensus is BC, anyone else?</p>

<p>It really depends on what you're looking for. If you're more into a traditional college experience, with sports and a centralized campus and school spirit, go with BC. If you care more about city life and would rather have a social life based on experiencing and experimenting in a great city, NYU wins.</p>

<p>Personally, I would never apply to either (I'd like to get out of NYC and I don't like Boston), but I suppose NYU.</p>

<p>Wow, congrats on getting into BC honors. That's pretty impressive, I applied there (didn't get honors) and read that it's for the top 5% of the freshman class (basically high ivy/ivy caliber students). Getting into honors at a school as competitive as BC is something to be proud of and I would definitely choose it over NYU. Great choice.</p>

<p>thanks! yeah i was shocked, it was weird because my brother got into Cornell and Northwestern last year and didn't get honors at BC. I got into Cornell sophmore year and wait listed at Northwesten yet got honors. I also got wait listed at Columbia, but he got rejected? I don't know, I guess all of these schools are crap shoots.</p>
