This poll is relevant to my interests...BU in a landslide?
Why is this a landslide and then the other GULC v. BC poll is so much closer? Money is comparable IMO.

I agree they are comparable and BC should be winning that one in a landslide too.Perch wrote:Why is this a landslide and then the other GULC v. BC poll is so much closer? Money is comparable IMO.
I think the reason they are different has to do with the irrational side of people seeing 6 figure debt for BC in that poll versus 5 figure debt for BU in this poll and that having an influence on the votes.

This - the debt is a little less and I think people generally equate US News with how much they'd pay - which is terribly silly.

Just realized how awesome this offer is. I got 15k/yr and 10k housing stipend, and was thrilled. Now I am g lous. I might go for around 125-30k in debt. So yes...

Just out of curiosity, how does BU notify people about whether or not they received a scholarship?
