is boston a nice city, or is it like full of crime and stuff? i'm just wondering because i hear cool things and how beautiful it is and i just want to know if it's true/ is Boston University a good one? any info on the university or city would be greaaaaaaaat! thanks!
BU is a really good college. I know they have a good engineering program because I went there once for FIRST Robotics & they had a bunch of information about engineering. They also have things like psychology, and other majors too (I just know of those two because I research them frequently. Sign up at CollegeBoard.com if you haven't already; there is SO much useful information there & it's all free.)
I've heard that BU isn't located in the BEST part of Boston, but far from the worst. I've been there during the day, walking in group with friends (all high school age, with a couple teachers) and I felt totally comfortable, there aren't like, gun-weilding lunatics around every corner or anything. You'll be safe; there's campus security and police do patrol the city all the time. Just don't walk the streets alone at three in the morning... then again, you really shouldn't do that in ANY city. The location isn't bad, so I wouldn't let that stop you from going to BU if you're interested in going to college there. Massachusetts is a really popular state for college students- so you won't be alone =]

You can ride the train, there are great places to eat, and shop. BU, is a huge campus, and it is very pretty. Boston is not full of crime, and it is very beautiful. I go there all the time. If you like the Red Sox, Fenway Park is there too. Its not too hard to find. Boston is beautiful at night. Deffinetly consider coming here.
