<p>If you expect to have many AP credits, take a good look at BC’s AP policy. As of a couple years ago when I last looked, they made it very hard to use AP credits. Last I looked, UVa did not have any maximum on the amount of AP credits you can use.</p>
<p>Also, with any religious-based college, take a look at the required religion classes. I know students complain at another Catholic college about how many religious classes they have to take, which cuts down on their electives their first year.</p>
<p>In addition, remember that you will be attending college during the coldest and darkest months of the year. Going to college in a northern climate could be a little depressing for some students.</p>
