Professors do not have the power to get their kids’ friends into their school. You know this, right? And Legacy at BU just means that if you’re qualified, you may be chosen over some other qualified applicant. It doesn’t mean they accept Legacy applicants who aren’t qualified. There is the College of General Studies, which accepts students with some weaknesses in their qualifications… but BU doesn’t publish separate stats for CGS (and it starts a lot of the CGS students in the spring because that keeps them from counting toward the published stats), so I don’t know what it takes to get into CGS… but that’s your best shot, BU wise.

Wentworth (right next to Northeastern) might be an option for you. I have known a few motivated students who have had great experiences there and gotten good jobs with companies where they had internships.
