  Really depends on your major what your experience will be at this school. If you're picking a major that's relatively easy you'll be able to make the most out of the school. CS and engineering majors, we have the best professors but their grading is harsh creating unnecessary stress and limited time to enjoy what makes BU great however it was great

  My experience at Bu has been deeply disappointing. The school's grading system is excessively harsh, which creates unnecessary stress and anxiety among students. It feels like the administration is more concerned with maintaining strict academic standards than with nurturing the well-being and future success of its students.

  This school charges for everything and doesn't have a very nice or professional school building. Everything is about fees. There are some professors who can be lecturers for graduate students even with only a graduate degree, even with bad English and very disrespectful to students. I

  There are so many opportunities to meet new people and venture outside of your major through the 450+ clubs on campus. Definitely come to hockey games for free fun on the weekends bc the school spirit is unmatched. Coming from NY, Boston has the perfect city vibe without being too overwhelming. Staff is incredible and everyone is so happy to help!

  Everything except the food and dorm rooms is good, but that goes for most schools.

  Go to BU they said, shower in sewage water, they said. Seriously... bad medical care, broken down everything, 90% of BU is just office space for the rich and lazy. There is no campus, unlike our neighboring colleges. Tech here is a joke.

  Alright reputation and location. Not good for public transport tho. Clubs may be intimidating. Definitely hard to socialize because it is so big. Average food imo. Facilities vary on locations but overall okay quality yet lack in numbers. Closing the library at 2am makes no sense. Worst internet quality for sure. No idea where our tuition went.

  As I freshman, I think it’s an excellent school academically, but awful culturally. The environment is very competitive and suffocating. Opportunities are plentiful though, and the professors are top-notch. Some of the negative stuff people say about this school online is complete nonsense. Just beware of the sink or swim environment…

  I absolutely love going to BU!! I've met so many awesome people, joined tons of interesting clubs, and gotten a lot of opportunities already from my first semester here. As a vegetarian who lives at Warren, my only complaint is the food options being so so limited, but otherwise I love it at BU:)

  Great school! I have really loved my time here. It can be overwhelming and is not for the faint of heart, but I wouldn't change my decision.

  Great school through and through, speaking from a Questrom POV. If you need help with anything, there is almost always someplace to accommodate you. Very safe campus, good teachers, all in all I have no regrets coming here!

  Lots of stuff to do around Boston, as well as clubs and research opportunities at the school. Exams are brutal, especially the first two years for STEM, be prepared to work way too hard for a grade you probably will cry over. Food is fine but the dorms suck, go off campus if you can.

  This school is the greatest example of life is what you make it. Everything here involves effort but once you're over a certain exertion, you realize how great this school actually is. There's so many opportunities and chances to further your career and enough people where you're bound to meet a group just like you. Only thing bad is their logo lol

  Prestigious place for sure. The location is good and most teachers are awesome. Relatively safe as well. Facilities and foods are decent, but can have more spaces for students. Behavioral medicine is not so good. Socializing can be hard because there are so many people. Clubs are diverse and great. Internet is the worst part as it can be very slow.
