Pictures of Colleges

College Search & Selection
1

<p>I'm trying to cut my list down right now, and despite what people may say, the way a college looks has a decent impact on my decision. Most colleges have some type of pictures on their website, but others like Boston University and Emory are proving elusive. I have only found maybe 2 or 3 pics for these colleges, and I'm really interested in what they look like. From what I've seen, it seems like BU is barely a campus at all and just part of the city, but I'd like to be sure. Anyone know of a website where there are pictures of universities? </p>

<p>And yes, I googled already. That's where I got the 3 results.</p>

<p>If you did a google image search of "boston university campus" or "emory campus", you should get a lot more than 3 results.</p>

<p>You have to visit, if you can. It gives you a feel that professionally taken, digitally altered propaganda reels can't offer [A good example is this</a> picture - it conveniently crops the image at the bottom right where the massive, 6-lane Commonwealth Ave begins].</p>

<p>I've been to BU though, and you're right. There are three subway stops on the Green Line for BU (they're all above ground, actually); it's quite a long line of buildings on Commonwealth Ave, which is a pretty large road. I'm a little baffled, I've never seen (or perhaps just never noticed) any dorms. I wonder where BU students live. I mean, it's not half bad, it's just very bustling and in the middle of everything. Depends on your tastes; I like to have a campus.</p>

<p>Can't help you with the pictures though. Send for a catalog, perhaps?</p>

<p>BU has a few dorms but I think the school has brownstones for most students to live in.</p>

<p>here's the new dorm they are building/have built <a href="http://www.bu.edu/studentvillage/media/view03.jpg%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.bu.edu/studentvillage/media/view03.jpg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>If you want to see how the campus is set up, Google Maps is a good way <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=Boston,+MA&ll=42.350861,-71.107721&spn=0.003695,0.010729&t=h&om=1%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=Boston,+MA&ll=42.350861,-71.107721&spn=0.003695,0.010729&t=h&om=1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>
