<p>this is a really, really late response but maybe it will help somebody out there out. </p>
<p>i think ohio state is a far superior school than boston university. i think the novelty of bu is that it’s IN boston. the location is great. but i think in terms of education, osu is better and far more affordable. ohio state’s med, vet, law, business, education, pharm schools etc are all top tier (top 50)… you can’t say that about many of BU’s programs. </p>
<p>but if what you’re looking for is a big city environment with tons of culture and what not, boston is probably the way to go. educationally, ohio state is the stronger institution.</p>
