Hello! I am interested in a career in business, specifically related to stock investment/financial planning/marketing. Since I want to be near Boston, Babson seems to be a good option. I have a few concerns/questions: I am not much of a partier, but I want to have fun in college. Would I be able to find a fun party a couple times a month? Are the sororities fun? Do students go into Boston at all? Thanks!!
It’s a great school. Have a family member who went there a couple of decades ago. Caveats: It is tiny. It’s close to Boston but not in Boston and that can matter in terms of socializing on weekends. Have you visited? Pro: There are so few alumni/nae that they stay in touch. It is widely respected.
Every Thursdays and Saturdays there are parties all over Babson. A lot of people go to Boston too to go clubbing or have dinner with friends too. You’ll most likely find a group of friends to hang out with most of the time. Babson’s community is small so you’ll know a lot of people around campus.
Thanks for the responses. I recently visited and got a good feeling from the campus. I am curious to learn more about the social scene. Overall, the school seems awesome.
