I really do encourage anyone with a choice between the two to visit both. The cost, location, and employment stats are so similar that it really should come down to fit.

1) i haven't even got into bu yet and possibly may not, so no selection has been made.

you don't even know me and you called me a tool?! wow. just wow.
For the record, it was totally a joke and one that would probably make more sense to someone currently attending the school. BC tends to be a bit younger and frattastic while BU is a bit older and a bit nerdier. That said, all kinds of people attend both schools, and these stereotypes are broad and largely indefensible over-generalizations. Regardless though, who doesn't love hating on a rival every once in a while, especially when their hockey team is so terrible.
I do agree that BC has the younger student body.

So no one on this site got in ED? That's crazy. I was agonizing over whether or not to do it, guess it wouldn't have mattered because I probably wouldn't have gotten in anyway.

if we're going by those stereotypes i would definitely choose older and nerdier over "frattastic." im pretty nerdy myself and "frattastic" is probably my worst nightmare. I cringe every time I read that made up word.

Makes sense that they'd want to give you guys decisions first. Srsly wondering who they gave all that money to, though.

Do people usually get the call the day after an update to complete or is there an "under review" period?

Hey, congrats! Good to know they're doing calls again today.
