BC is not urban.

She said big OR urban. And BC is pretty urban anyway, it's not like it's in a rural location. However it's pretty competitive from an admissions standpoint and a 1340 SAT is at the 25th percentile.

You are not familiar and have not visited BC? It is on the large side, but urban it is not.

It is about 8 miles from Boston. That’s pretty urban.

Big and urban are relative, at least in this context. We can let OP decide.

OP here - I went to UVM and DH did grad school at GW so she does not want to follow in our footsteps. ;(

Drexel- right in Philly steps away from Penn. I visited with my DC and we were both impressed. It is similar to Northeastern with its co-op program.

For sake of accuracy, edit that to 8 miles from downtown Boston. The campus itself is partly in Boston, with the city line cutting through the middle of campus. The campus is suburban. The lifestyle (especially for juniors living off campus) tends toward urban.

That said, indeed as noted above, the middle 50 percentiles for students enrolled in the class of 2022 was 1340-1480. The average score for students admitted to the class of 2023 was 1461, with a 27% acceptance rate and most in the top 10% of their class. Would be a reach for a 1340, but ok to add to the list if it turned out to be desirable.

It’s hard not to love, but Univ of Miami is neither big nor urban. But check it out anyway — it’s not tiny or rural.

With her major, high probability she may not be employable after college. You sure this is what she wants to do and what you want to spend your money on?
Sounds crazy to me.

University of Florida has best undergrad Sports Management in country but that would be a reach with your kids stats. Definitely big and definitely East Coast.
