#

Does anyone know how transfers at BU get treated?

#

Does anyone know if the "BU Grade Deflation" is a thing across the whole uni ?

#

or just certain colleges/schools

scarlet anvil
#

Whole uni

#

And it’s bad

tawdry frost
#

i heard like a -B isnt a 3.0 or something

#

@scarlet anvil

scarlet anvil
#

Idk about that but it’s that the professors barely give u an A unless your work is like Nobel peace price level or some shit

tawdry frost
#

wtf

smoky tiger
#

Is anyone here doing pre med at BU?

#

I have some questions

tawdry frost
smoky tiger
#

that’s what I’m scared of for committing

#

I’ve heard it’s horrible

#

Like can I get an A

scarlet anvil
#

@smoky tiger I have a friend who’s a first year who had a professor tell them he hasn’t given a student an A in years

#

The benefit is though that if you got any scholarships the minimum grade you need in order to keep them is pretty low so you’d be fine lasting through

smoky tiger
#

well for med school they want a 3.7 GPA minimum and I wanna be able to get that soooo

#

The issue is i rlly wanna go to BU

#

But I also know it’s gonna be hell for pre med everyone says it

#

NEU has negative rizz

narrow lion
#

Any current BU students or alums here that can say anything ab how the dorms are?

mystic nexus
#

^ i am also pondering this inquiry

#

i’m thinking about just staying in warren since it’s closest to the college of engineering but i’d prefer quality when it comes to dorms

#

i wouldn’t mind a little distance

digital iron
#

Idk might want to reach out on insta to current students or ask the reddit

10-15 minute walk to get to nearby stores you want, takes like 20 minutes to walk to the stadium or to any classes and 20+ minutes to walk to any of the frats. Only benefit are the busses which sometimes stop at places and sometimes are super late

#

For the summer and spring it’s a really nice vibe

#

And it’s fun to walk or to run around

#

But in the cold times it’s actually painful to do

#

Especially when you live in the whitestones

#

I think warren towers wasn’t that bad but those are another level

#

Brownstones are the top

empty veldt
#

meh its not too bad from my perspective and i cant care less about frats 💀

#

i love the cold too

scarlet anvil
#

Welcome to BU

empty veldt
#

💀 im a boston native so that changes my perspective compared to others

scarlet anvil
#

Oh okay BU is basically home for you

#

Where’d you go to high school?

#

I know a lot of Boston latin kids

#

That are commuting

#

To BY

#

BU

empty veldt
#

I go to O'bryant

scarlet anvil
#

👌

empty veldt
#

im staying on campus 😭

scarlet anvil
#

Aren’t you close to home tho you could just save money

#

And unless you get whitestones as a freshman Warren towers is not fun

empty veldt
#

i have a full ride through the bps community service scholarship

#

i dont have enough knowledge about dorms tho

scarlet anvil
#

BU for free

#

Hell yeah

#

That’s great dude

#

Don’t worry about it then

#

But try to avoid warren towers

mystic nexus

scarlet anvil
#

So don’t worry and stay strong

#

unless they factor in grade deflation during the admissions process or idk

scarlet anvil
#

They are extremely cramped and overall really must and bad, apparently they also started having leaky ceilings

#

to anyone who lived in The Towers-- is it a decent dorm for freshman year? im debating whether or not i should choose this or warren as my number 1 preference since i am in the college of engineering, and proximity is quite important to me. thanks!
