<p>Hey, I dont know whether I should go to BU or Fordham LC. Im attracted to NYC, but I also want to experience boston. The two schools are essentially tied according to US News, and I dont know what to do. Please help!!!!</p>
<p>BU is only ranked that low due to their lack of generosity in financial aid. It is more internationally renown.</p>
<p>Thanks. So it would be wise to go to BU then?</p>
<p>Boston is a phenomenal place and in the surrounding areas there are over 250,000 college aged students. It really is a city for students.</p>
<p>As a student at Fordham with a brother going to school in Boston, I may be biased, but I say definitely Fordham. Esp. if location is a primary concern. My bro is constantly trying to come into the city to get outta Beantown…</p>
<p>ive heard great things about BU, and like sofy said, its really a student city, i mean, theres BU, Northeastern, Harvard, MIT, Tufts and a few more i think… so theres a lot of partying and stuff like that 
also, id say BU is more prestigious than fordham :)</p>
