<p>^^ It’s not really more selective or prestigious; The stats of the undergrad student body is identical.</p>
<p>I’d choose BU because their course selection is unbeatable, even compared to the Ivy Leagues. I often wish I could take some of the very unique courses offered there. Plus he’s getting an additional 12k from BU, which could very well be the tie breaker. </p>
<p>Also I believe coop takes an extra year to complete. Why waste a year working at $20/hour job through the program when you could work full time for much much more? and not pay anymore tuition to boot.</p>
