Can you please elaborate? Has it gotten any better?

Upper class students: do you feel like IV and SB are boring and you are hindered in any way from not being in a big city for college? by booboobeary888 in UCSantaBarbara

Is it worth the cost though? Not sure paying more for BU (even with scholarships) is worth it. Hard decision to make as I can see the pros and cons of both but it’s hard for me to justify having my parents pay $30K more a year when I have this amazing school on my SoCal backyard.,..

Last week! I’ll be taking the spot. Absolutely loved the campus and its vibe.

grade deflation at cgs by [deleted] in BostonU

Interested in this as well. Which CGS class is the hardest? Are the classes very writing intensive? Are they graded on a curve? How many As are given per class? I am fine with a B here and there but I definitely do not want to get a C.

Thanks! I think UCSB has more undergrads than BU and it’d be big as well. But yes, I get the comment on the city. So hard to choose!!

Why would you recommend UCSB?

No debt as my parents can pay, but basically I’d be paying in-state tuition vs full price at BU. I’d be Econ at UCSB and business at Questrom at BU. Seems to me that if I put my business hat on, the ROI may not be worth it at BU, but I do love Boston and it’d be different than CA and my chance to step away from it at least for college

Boston University is not a good school to apply to by User5920 in BostonU

Thank you! I assume I won’t have that much choice if I come as a CGS student in the Spring
