Visit Activities:

Information Session: Yes

Classroom Visit: No - We were not taken into a classroom.

---

Campus:

---

We did not see many students but at other schools, the students spoke. Here, they kept walking!

---

Cold environment.

---

Beautiful! The architecture of buildings is amazing!

---

Very clean

---

Did not see any dorms.

---

They did not address security. Newton is and always has been in the top three for the "safest cities in the country".

---

Greta campus but not friendly.

Off-Campus:

---

So much to do in Boston. Boston College is in the suburbs but just minutes on the trolley to downtown.

---

This is a great place to be...close to Boston but not in the city.

Campus Visit Notes for Boston College

Visit Description:

Boston College was one of my top choices but after visiting several other schools, I felt they did not present their school well. My mom is from Newton, Massachusetts and worked at Boston College for a summer. Her impression changed after the visit.

Hotel/Lodging Recommendations or Comments:

Plenty of places in the downtown area or the Cambridge area.

Dining/Restaurant Recommendations or Comments:

Great restaurants from Italian, Greek, Seafood...you name it! All within a ten minute trip on the "T".
