Hard to say based on the percentage of what we saw. What we saw looked good-to-very good. Plan to return in January to do a School of Music tour and to see the Fitness & Recreation Center. [View Full Report]

The campus is very urban. The Charles River borders the campus on the north. The campus doesn't have a fence around it nor a green. [View Full Report]

The campus is what I expected from a university in a city. It had lots of concrete and buildings. Near the river, though, there was more grass and sunny areas. [View Full Report]

It's in the city so don't expect that traditional college campus. BUT, it is pretty nice in it's own little way. [View Full Report]

It is an urban and relativley modern campus, so there aren't really the old buildings seen at other campuses (I love the old buildings at campuses like Yale). [View Full Report]

The campus lacks the charm of a school like Boston College (though I prefer BU more). In some areas more than others it lacks architectural beauty & open space. [View Full Report]

Considering that BU is an urban campus, the grounds like they were maintained well. From one section of the campus there was a lovely view of the Charles River. [View Full Report]

Some buildings aren't that aesthetically pleasing, but BU is still nice. [View Full Report]

Completely urban feel made me hate the campus. Major road and T go right through middle of campus. T is convenient, but there is no definitive campus. [View Full Report]

For being in a city, there was a lot of green. The buildings were well maintained. There was a wee bit of construction, but it should be done before the fall of 2008. They're widening the sidewal [View Full Report]
