“The only reason I never transfered were theQuite BrightComputer Science
The only reason I never transfered were the courses I didn't have to take. I'm going to graduate a couple courses short of a Japanese Minor, and the courses I took for that were incredibly rewarding. In addition, the extra CS courses that I took that weren't required have been very helpful, as they've been more about getting a job and programming in the real world instead of the intellectual bull that most of the CS courses are. This education is in no way worth the $40k you have to pay. Go somewhere else, but come here for grad school once you can actually have immediate access to the good professors.

“The Boston University School of Management really hasBusiness - Management and Administration
The Boston University School of Management really has an AMAZINGLY diverse student body. For the big group project junior year, my group consisted of
1) A Kuwaiti
2) A Russian
3) An Indonesian
4) An Italian
5) A New Yorker (Me)
These people were 100% from out of the US. They went home to these far away places during break. They are not Italian/American, Russian/American etc. These are truely international students (usually very very rich). The experience of working with people like this was very rewarding and eye-opening. I left BU with a much more developed world view than most of my friends back home and even most of my co-workers today.Oh yeah, and the building is wonderful as well.
