<p>Is this just a community college affiliated with BU? Can you get on campus housing? Is this basically an easier way to get into BU if you are underqualified for the College of Arts and Sciences?</p>
<p>Do some research yourself:</p>
<p>[Boston</a> University College of General Studies](<a href=“http://www.bu.edu/cgs/about/index.html]Boston ”>http://www.bu.edu/cgs/about/index.html )</p>
<p>
Founded in 1952, the College of General Studies offers a two-year, general education core curriculum, taught through a system of team instruction. The extensive core curriculum is both interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary and taught solely by full-time Boston University faculty dedicated to teaching as well as scholarship. Considering the depth of the core curriculum and the faculty-student team approach, the College is virtually unique.</p>
<p>CGS freshmen are the second largest incoming class to Boston University’s eleven undergraduate schools and colleges.</p>
<p>All CGS freshmen are accepted as four-year bachelor’s degree candidates, who, upon completion of the core program and elective courses outside of CGS, continue to their choice of any of the liberal arts and professional degree programs in Boston University’s ten undergraduate schools and colleges.
