<p>Well, hard to say this: Boston is my favorite city, i would give antyhing to go to BU. But, I don’t know how hard it is to get in: I’d be a music performance major; so, i’d love to know if there’s a chance in heck if i could make it!??!?!</p>

11th grade: gpa=3.80(uw)/4.059(W) Rank = 42/317 (w) and 34/317 (uw)

<p>It's really hard to say since it's very dependent upon your audition.</p>

<p>Yeah, CFA is a different animal than the rest of BU. I'd suggest looking at their [url=<a href="http://www.bu.edu/cfa/%5Dwebsite%5B/url"&gt;http://www.bu.edu/cfa/]website[/url&lt;/a&gt;]. Here is the link to [url=<a href="http://www.bu.edu/cfa/music/auditions/index.htm%5Dauditions%5B/url"&gt;http://www.bu.edu/cfa/music/auditions/index.htm]auditions[/url&lt;/a&gt;]. It's a terrific music school, so good luck.</p>

<p>GL with auditions bro.</p>
