It gets better every year. The sky is the limit for BU
Always do your research on rate-my-professor before picking classes
Beautiful campus.I am amazed and thoroughly disgusted that BU is giving their residential assistants guides that state that men cannot be oppressed just as white people cannot be oppressed. If you have a dream or a passion, you can make it happen at BU.Evidently, these two groups don't fall under the Umbrella of Oppression that BU believes to be true.
If you work hard, and legitimately give it 100% of your effort, you will do well. For the most part, teachers want to help their students and will try their best to make you prepared for the industry.
The residence life staff at Warren Towers are rude and irresponsible. They never care what the students need and only care about their own convenience. Hanging up my call when I tell them I lose my debt card, uh?
Going to this school has been one of the most rewarding experiences I've ever had. I originally transferred from a public college in NYC and I can tell you the difference is NIGHT and DAY. I've seen some real unqualified staff that don't care about their students; but that's not the case at BU.
All nighters may happen...
I am a current student here. Beware if you are looking to go to this school, the name is good... But let's be honest, it's not great. Despite that fact, they make you work like a dog for your mediocre grades. I'm talking 150 page papers... 2hr midterms that end at 9pm and then you start another 2hr midterm the next morning at 9am. It's unnecessarily relentless. They push too hard. Also a lot of professors here are terrible. Use ratemyprofessor or a website like it. If you don't you will truly suffer. Some are good... But you have to make sure you get the good ones.
Words of wisdom:
If possible, try and find a nearby space off-campus living to save $
Here is my experience as an undergrad CS major:
Go to office hours if you need to and use all resources available
In addition, there are so many clubs and activities. Because there is such a diverse student body, there is something for everyone here. Just put yourself out there and I promise you'll meet some really cool people.
