<p>So I already did my RSVP to CAS Open House. I noticed that BU limits guests to 2 people, but I am actually bringing 3 guests (Mom, Dad, and Brother). Is this okay?</p>
<p>I'd email them and ask</p>
<p>I want to bring my mother, father, and sister also. =/</p>
<p>I don't mean to sound accusatory, it's just that my curiosity has been piqued: why do you want to bring along the brood? I mean, I understand wanting to bring a parent so that they can hear all the financial stuff (I know my mom is tagging along), but a sibling? My brother (who now goes to BU) told me that it wasn't my open house and not worth missing school for. Different strokes for different folks, I guess.</p>
<p>I'm going by myself since my mom couldn't get off work. I guess it's a bit different since I'm from Boston, so it's not much of a hike.</p>
<p>I don't mind really, I'm just going to get a better sense of the school and find out more about the Honors program.</p>
<p>maybe the OP is traveling from a distance that dictates the family must take the sibling along.
Or maybe the sibling also has interest in BU..I don't think it is that odd. My kids attended various events sponsored by their sister's colleges, out of choice and support</p>
<p>Well, I live in Texas and there's no way I'm leaving behind my fifteen year old sister. She'll be all alone and besides, she's considering going to BU and it'd be a waste to pay for two trips when she can go see it now. Why would we pay twice to go to Boston? XD It's why I let her come along to Los Angeles when I went to look at USC.</p>
<p>I live in CA and I can definitely not leave my younger brother alone. Besides, this is not only a trip to visit BU, but more like a family/spring break trip. We will not only be visiting the Open House, but also surrounding areas, Downtown, as well as NYC. I hope BU doesn't kick me out from the Open House when they realize I brought another guest.</p>
<p>Did you e-mail? What did they say?</p>
<p>I can't imagine anyone would care if you show up with an extra person. If there's an event with food, you may have an extra cost, but it's not like they have assigned seating in small rooms. The limit is there to discourage people from coming with their extended families. When I went, they had a big auditorium for COM and then divided things up into groups by departments and then separated the families from the kids, etc. so the adults could talk to the professors and the kids could talk to students. </p>
<p>Besides, this is Boston and your family can wander off on their own. It's only one of the great cities of the world.</p>
