Babson Community

I have heard from several people that most of the kids at Babson belong to pretty rich families. I am an international student and it is a big deal that my parents are able to afford the Babson education. I am from an upper middle class family and I would not be able to go to Babson and spend money freely like other kids.

Do you think this is a problem? Do you guys feel that I will be able to adjust into the Babson atmosphere or is it going to be a problem?

Thanks in advance

the internationals are wealthy, the American kids are a "mixed bag".

Well I come from a working class family and would have to pay my way through babson.Doesnt that seem a bit more problematic? I am sure if you find your way with the right people right friends everything will turn out okay. I am sure of that, at least i hope. haha

Anyone else with opinions?

Don't worry about it. Babson has become a lot more inclusive over the past couple of years and the international students tend to be very tight knit regardless of how much money you have.
