I believe coming to this school was the worst decision of my life. I have gone from High School hero to a zero. The campus is filled with nerds and ugly girls. Its cold and you are isolated on a hill to a minute campus with about only 2800 students. It is not called Holy Hell for nothing. My life back in my home town was great; since coming here I despise my very existence. Do not come here.

School Princeton Review Academic Rating
Harvard 99
College of the Holy Cross 98
Boston College 87
Tufts 89

Boston Univ 84
Source(s): http://www.princetonreview.com/It also was ranked 8th in the country by Kiplinger's for Best Values in National Private Colleges. The campus is spectacularly beautiful and the classes are small and the professors all have PhD and it is strictly undergraduate. It has great division 1 sports and the basketball team often goes to the NCAAs and the football team won the Patriot League championship this year. 25% of students are varsity athletes. It is an amazing college and less than an hour to Boston and borders a medium size city with lots to do.
