OP, be more specific what you mean by community wise (Jesuit?) and campus wise (size) and maybe we can help. |

| You’re going to have to be more specific because what one likes about BC another can’t stand. For example, student population at BC and Lehigh seem similar (both skew UMC/wealthy with tons of private prep school kids) but BC doesn’t have a strong engineering program like Lehigh (or Santa Clara for that matter). |

Georgetown - though the students are a little more high-octane
Villanova - a pretty campus like BC, but the school isn't as vibrant |

| My DC applied ED to BC a few years ago. The other schools they really loved were UVA and Tulane. Schools they applied to but didn’t love quite as much were Wake Forest, Syracuse, Villanova, UGA and Richmond. YMMV |
