[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Boston College is better academically and ranked slightly higher (if you care about rankings). It’s harder to get into [/b]and has a better reputation overall. BC has more of a traditional campus  - beautiful architecture and grounds. BU is an urban campus. BC also has better athletics with football, basketball, hockey, and lacrosse drawing good crowds and school spirit. BU really only has hockey. Know many people who  did not get into BC and ended up at BU.[/quote]

BU is the slightly easier admit, punts some students to spring (following in NEU's footsteps a smitch) and even after that still having test scores just a tad under BC's, and has less of a self-selecting applicant pool. That said, they are fairly close for admission, and it's possible to get into one but not the other.[/quote]
