<p>I have seen all three schools and would say they are all good for science and it would depend on which one you thought you fit at best. Tufts has a reputation for being soley reliant on their frats for any parties. Tufts campus was very pretty. BC is known for great athletics and parties but freshman boys have a bit of a tough time being excluded. BC’s campus is one of the most beautiful I have seen. BU is an urban school but the street by the river with the brownstone dorms is very cool. BU gives a significant amount of merit aid if they want you. They are fond of giving 1/2 tuition scholarships. Since it is only 50% of tuition after you finish paying for the rest of tuition, room and board it is still a hefty price tag. BUT BC and Tufts are equally expensive and they do not give merit aid. You should revisit any school before accepting. You should apply to all three, since they are all in the same area if you get accepted you can revisit all three in the same shot rather easily. Good Luck</p>
