this may be a late response but my daughter wanted to transfer after her freshman year from an excellent school and was accepted by BC and PC. BC gives no merit aid and they are so smug to deal with. BC is higher -ranked and all that business, but at the undergraduate level, it’s best to go for the scholarships and not get caught up in this student loan nightmare that is in the news today.Better to save for a top notch grad school when your child really knows what they want to study. I think BC is over-rated and housing is not guaranteed last two years.It’s the draw of a great city like Boston that does it for all these schools there that now enjoy higher rankings. BC was a commuter school some years back and in my opinion, it was the Flutie -factor that propelled them into the status they now enjoy.
