I am currently taking BSLW1021, ACCT3301, THEO1401, and BSLW3345. For my last class I am between PHIL1070 with Tone Svetelj, and CLAS2206 with Kendra Eshleman. Which is easier and the lighter course load that would match my schedule?? With PHIL1070 my days would end at 2:15 and with CLAS2206 my days would end at 12;15, but i care a lot more about how easy the class is rather than the time. Any advice is appreciated

Hello! I am a huge women’s college volleyball fan and my favorite team is playing Boston College in September. I see on the website that admission is free and first come first serve? I will be driving 2 hours to come to the game. How busy is it usually? Like do I need to show up 3 hours before the game starts to make sure I get a seat??? Please let me know. Thank you!

Please rate my teachers and tell me anything you know about them/your experience:

1. Wesner, Thomas L for Law I

2. Beebe, Jonathan R for Excel (btw can anyone tell me what you really do in this course since it's asynchronous)

3. Kaplan-Maxfield, Thomas for Literature core

4. Mo, Yajun for Asia in World II (can anyone tell me what are the best/easy teachers for HIST I and II)

5. Mendelsohn, Stephen for Portico

6. Meyer, Amy for Intro to Theatre

Hi! I’m an incoming freshman with federal work-study and I’m interested in getting a job on-campus. However, I’m also trying to fit in marching band and orchestra as my extracurriculars, which means I would be at rehearsal every night from M-Th. I start class pretty late every day so I would definitely be interested in working during the morning. Is it feasible to balance work with both extracurriculars + classes, and what jobs would have flexible hours? Are there any jobs that easily hire freshman?

Ugh, incoming first year who used Eagle Evals to pick my classes at registration - recently went to check some more professors/classes in case I add/drop and see that all the Eagle Evals are gone!! Seems like the students who ran it, graduated and no one took over and unfortunately the data that was there is now inaccessible

Any chance someone will pick it back up? I know some of the info is on rate my prof but i found eagle evals more informative

Hi. I was wondering if it was strongly not recommended to take Gen chem II + lab, bio I + lab, and physics I + lab in the same semester? If its not recommended, could someone tell me where I should fit it into my plan now? Any help is so appreciated!!

Hi! I am not too familiar with either BC or BU, but I do know that both schools are very prestigious and well regarded. So ofc that being said, both of these schools are definitely NOT just party schools, but I’m wondering which one is more known for their parties. Lmk, thank youu!

hi guys incoming freshman with orientation session 7. i recently sent my ap scores to BC, and was wondering if we need to take any placement tests besides english (i believe i don’t need to take it because i am american but my chinese friend needs to). and do the credits we get from ap scores automatically factor into the system when we are registering for classes?

also, how many credits are usually taken freshman year?

thank you x

Apologies if this is common knowledge, I’m not really big into football. My sister goes to Pitt and my family wants to come up for the BC v. Pitt game in October. Is there a way they can get discounted tickets, as I am a student, or is that not impossible? I also have a gold pass, but does that only apply for the student section? We all want to sit together.

Appreciate the help.

I got a 5 on AP Calc BC this year as a high school senior and just got an email invitation to join Honors Multivariable Calc and its spring sequel Honors Linear Algebra. On the one hand, I really enjoy math, but I'll be a biochem major on the pre-health pathway (also considering a minor in CSOM) so not sure how it would help me work towards my goals. My original plan was to place out of the beginner Spanish that I signed up for so I can fill that space with econ/business classes, and take Calc 2 in the spring. Have any of you taken the Multivariable/LA combo? How was it and do you think it would be worth it for me?

Any insight on Professor Ingram or Professor Ehrich for FWS?

How is Professor Devine for Principles of economics? Compared to Professor Bejan and Regan, how difficult is his course and any tips to succeed with him?

Im at a conference and the mattresses are like cardboard. For how expensive the university is, why aren't the beds at least a little more comfortable? It's the worst I've experienced, including at land grant state schools.

Hi! I am starting graduate school at BC in the fall and will be commuting (around an hour drive, public transport not an option). I’m looking into parking permits and I am a bit confused by the options for the SGS permit and if the price is even worth it.

Any guidance or advice on this would be super appreciated!!!

I feel like literally every professor I've looked into in the art department has such bad ratings on rate my professor. Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated. I'm also not sure how much I'm supposed to trust that website.

Hi everyone! I'm an incoming international freshman trying to plan out my classes ahead of time.

I got a 5 on AP Lang, so from what I understand, I should be able to skip the First-Year Writing requirement as long as my online writing placement test went well. I already finished the placement test a while ago but haven't received the results or any notification yet.

Does anyone know around when the university usually releases these results?

I'm considering applying as a philosophy transfer student for the spring 2027 semester, and I'd like to ask, what's the avg stats for accepted transfer students?

I dropped massively in IB by 13 points. However, I was awarded the Diploma and my final transcripts for high school was already sent in before getting my final IB grades. I’m stressing very hard. On the admissions letter it does not give a specific requirement/condition. I was enrolled ED2.

When are freshmen room assignments finalized and posted for us to see?

Hi folks! My family and I moved to MA a few years ago and I’m a big CFB fan and like to experience different college games at all levels (FBS, FCS, D2, etc). I’m hoping to check out a BC game this year, likely FSU on 11/7.
I’m an Alabama grad and I’m not expecting an SEC like experience, but I’d like to make the the most of it!
Any tips on BC game days would be appreciated! Best seats, pregame activities, unique things to see or do, or anything else you can share. Thanks very much 🙂

Hi everybody! I’ll be on campus over the summer and I’m learning piano on my own. Anyone know where I could find open pianos on campus that don’t require being a music student? Thanks!
