I brag about how good of a school it is both academically and athletically. I feel accomplished for having been accepted into such a great school and love telling people where I attend college when asked. My classes are challenging and I have a tough work load so doing well is all the more rewarding. I love bragging to my friends, especially those from Northeastern, that BU are the hockey east champions. Other bragging rights include having a brand new gym with numerous facilities available to students, such as racket ball courts, rock climbing wall, and even a lazy river!

I brag about how welcoming and fun it is. You easily find friends here and activities to do on campus. There may not always be social events like parties every weekend, but you can be guaranteed that you will find something fun to do. BU is also in the heart of Boston, and it's right by almost everything you could possibly need.

Boston is a great city to live in.

I brag most about my amazing professors, and the city of Boston itself. It is such a hub of cultural events, sports games, and history; I feel like I barely scratched the surface during my first year. It is an amazing place to go to school!

I always enjoy braging to my friends about the scholarly appeal of my school. I feel a great amount of pride when telling people the name of the school that i attend because it has a very good reputation of excellence. Also the fact that there is a large diversity at the school makes the ability to make friends eaisier.

Top Notch programs, great city envirment, tons of fun.
Lilun
the very strong science and liberal art program. Boston University has stronger academic program than Boston College.

The location -- Boston is a great town to study in because there are cultural and business opportunities not available in small, college-only towns.

When I speak to my friends about the Boston University, I brag about the big campus, and how accessisble it is to go to CVS, the banks, food places, Kinko and etc..... It's so easy to find my way around compared to many schools where I often get lost. In addition, the library have all the sourceful information to get my research papers done. It's important to me because I want to do well in school. I don't lack anything there, I feel blesssed and secured for God to have chosen me to go to Boston University!
Alexandra
The location is amazing for a city person; being immersed in a city keeps life interesting. We also have an amazing Orientation program.
Michelle
The immense number of extra-curricular activities available to students.

BU has a great rep, great professors, and is a very difficult school. Most people get great jobs upon graduating.
Laura
BU was fantastic because it was so big there were always lots of choices. There were never problems getting into the classes you needed, and no wierd restrictions/prerequistites on half the classes. There were some huge lecture, but most classes were small and contained lots of discussions. Plus, being right in the middle of Boston is great; there was always something to do - a museum to go to, a show, shopping, etc.
Maureen
You have to have better grades to get in, supposedly.
lauren
That it is far from home. It's large and makes it easy to get lost.
