CGS is a two year program, mainly for people who do not get into another program at BU but still want to attend BU in hopes of transferring into another program after two years. CGS is basically like high school, from what I've heard. You do a lot of work that is, no offense to CGS people, kind of dumbed down.
If you want to be able to choose the things you study but aren't necessarily sure what you want to major in, apply to CAS. You can dabble in many subjects without being constricted to curriculum that is decided for you.
I know many bright people who were fooled into applying straight to CGS because they thought it would be great because they were undecided. They aren't too pleased with their decisions after taking the classes.
If you are only offered admittance to CGS, then don't fret. It's a two-year program and afterward you can transfer into CAS or COM or whatever school you choose.
