First, most people who attend Rose Hill learn to love the Bronx even if they were slightly intimidated at first. Search the forum for posts by yenrod and sunshowers23.

Second, Boston is known as a college town but NYC has plenty of colleges, too, and I’m sure that you’ll find people with similar interests and have fun at either school.

When my S was considering, Boston College vs. Fordham, NYU last year, the deciding factor in ruling out BC was that it was in the “wrong” city. He didn’t think Boston was a “real” city given the cleanliness, small town feel compared to NYC and the fact that public transportation shut down at midnight! So if you have visited both schools and didn’t get that “this is where I belong” feeling, then consider which city you want to live in for the next four years and ultimately where you want to end up careerwise. Good luck! :)
