Boston Page: Boston University

“Ever since I was young I’ve wanted to go to college in Boston (for one it’s my namesake, two I have a lot of family in that area, and three it is a hub for science and engineering). BU is a school that is in a great area of the city (right next to Fenway) and while it was a reach, it was attainable with my grades and extracurriculars. Plus, BU’s College of Engineering is well respected but on the smaller side compared to other majors, which means that my classes would be more intimate, which I personally prefer.”
