I went to to PC and had many friends that went to BC so I visited there often . Also grew up about 15 minutes away from BC. I know lots of kids attending both schools currently. I would not say PC is any more religious than BC. Both have clergy on campus, both have theology requirements, and both are into service. Both will have masses on campus and many attend but just as many (if not more) do not attend. I honestly didn’t even know the religion of most of my classmates from PC, most were pretty apathetic, even the Catholic ones like me. Both schools have lots of kids that like to party but also work hard. PC did have pretty strict rules about single sex dorms and visitors of the opposite sex but not sure if those have been lifted over time.
