IT'S NOT JUST
WHAT YOU LEARN,
BUT WHERE
YOU LEARN IT.

There's the college experience
and then there's the BU experience

THINK YOU'RE UP FOR IT?

At BU, we love active participants. And judging by the record number of freshman applications we received this year, they love us.

They especially love the idea of being pushed and challenged everyday by Guggenheim fellows, a MacArthur fellow, or Fulbright scholars at a university ranked 39th in the world. *

After reading through this handout, we hope you'll arrange to come visit. And see for yourself what it's really like to be part of a world-class university.
