Commentary while polished isn’t accurate. Tufts for example has 10k students half grad and is not focused on undergrad. It has one the best diplomatic schools and various engineering., Medical, dental as well as liberal arts
There are a ton of great schools around Boston that you won't need to spend the rest of your life in debt. Many of the State Schools are in great locations in and around Boston. Check out UMass Boston and smaller schools like Framingham State University. The places here will keep you in debt for the rest of your life.
No Boston College? Northeastern is a diploma mill for people from other countries. A few years back it had several students from China caught having people paid to take their SAT -- so that is the kind of high quality person you will find at that school. That is why they have the money for new buildings. They let in students so they can overstay their visa.
I have the opportunity to do an exchange semester at either Babson or Bentley. The study fees would be paid by my home university, so financially it would not make much of a difference (obviously I'd have to pay for food and housing myself though). I do study Economics. Which one would you recommend? I'm looking to get the best in Quality of Education, Where I could meet the best people and have the most fun, which area is better, where the student life is best, nightlife too etc. etc. I'd be very grateful if someone could give me some tips
Super cool University compile video. I recently have been watching videos about Boston University. I am in my 40's and have schizophrenia so college life is not a reality for me due to my mental illness making it difficult to learn higher education.
Just out of curiosity, how does living with schizophrenia affect college education? The topic of mental illness related to access/support of education has always interested me and if it’s ok with you I’m interested in your experience.
@@consult-US What did you do - charge the colleges to be in your video - b/c you don't need anyone's permission to take the kind of video footage in this video.
@@kenb3552 Listen, BC is a recurring issue in this section, and I'm getting a bit tired of it. In the summer of 2016, I spent five days in Boston with group of selected international school counselors (Boston Area International Counselor Tour, see end credits). We were hosted by the participating colleges, shown around campus, and had an opportunity to talk to students, professors and admissions staff. It was two schools a day, on a tight schedule. I had no time to visit or film at other colleges. Boston College used to be part of that program (it was 10 colleges then, not 9), but they decided they didn't need that kind of exposure any more and dropped out. As a result, they're not featured in my video. Easy as that. ( I did include BC on the website that accompanies this video, see the link).
@@teddygray8598 Boston College IS located in both Boston and Newton. BOTH. Main campus straddles both. And Newton borders Boston so how can it be "a good deal west" of the city?? Know your facts before you post, bud.
Hi Jeremia, you're a very keen obsever! Yes, that's Berklee School of Music in the intro section but the school was not part of the college tour during which this was filmed.

There are some 50 colleges and universities in and around Boston, and yes, I deliberately missed out on 41 of them. That said, if you had watched the video, you would have seen me standing right there on the MIT campus explaining why I picked these 9 schools over all the others. Cheers!
@@consult-US Thank you for replying to me, Carsten. I understand that your motive was to introduce the less well-known or "more unheard of" colleges located around the Boston area. By highlighting BU and Northeastern among your picks, you inadvertently chose two of the most popular (and familiar-sounding) schools among overseas students. Foreign students made up around 57% and 32% of total student enrollment at Northeastern and BU, respectively. There are already over 10,000 international students studying at Northeastern. Why are they still considered "unheard of" or obscure? You could have substituted these two popular Boston schools with Berkelee College of Music and Simmons University. www.timeshighereducation.com/student/news/25-us-universities-most-international-students#survey-answer
@@JSLeow Fair enough. But believe it or not, none of the German high school seniors or graduates I've worked with over the past decade had ever heard of Northeastern before (which currently enrolls "only" 18% international students, by the way, according to the 2018-19 Common Data Set). I don't know where you're based, but I find that colleges that are household names in the US are often virtually unknown among 17-year-olds in my corner of the world (Europe) unless they're expats or third culture kids attending international schools where US schools like to recruit. But the point is, really, that this is my personal video of the Boston schools I visited in the summer of 2016, and hence I am free to show the schools that I like and that I believe might be a good fit for the kids I work with. The video doesn't claim to present an official, complete, well-balanced picture of the Boston higher ed scene. But thanks for taking the time to engage here!
@@consult-US Northeastern was and is never a well-known name even in its own backyard in Boston. Like BU, it mainly caters to the working-class in Boston to provide Co-op programs or career-focused internship training for its undergraduate students to find jobs upon graduation, focused more on undergraduate education and post-graduate professional programs. The small 73-acre downtown Boston campus does not reflect its true presence. So, your video doesn't quite capture its real scope and scale. In recent years, it has transformed itself and expanded into multiple campuses across Boston and Massachusetts and across North America in places like Charlotte (NC), Seattle (WA), San Jose (CA), and Toronto (ON). It is also building new campuses in Vancouver (BC), Austin (TX) & Minneapolis (MN). Unfortunately, the Common Data Set that you so reliant upon does not include all student enrollments of every college. International students are sometimes lumped into a category called "nonresident aliens"; foreign students taking professional programs are not included in these data set. You should study these schools in greater depth before recommending them to your prospective audience in Germany. I reside in North America and my wife went to school in Boston.
Wellesley is #1 women's college and the #3 liberal arts college in the US (tied for 3rd place with Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania) Students can take courses at Harvard and MIT.
I studied a semester in Bay Path University and I fell in love with the staff and life there. It was extremely quiet over there but I felt so good for some reason. I was planning to move to some other university that is cheaper than Bay Path.
No Boston college, that is surprising, it's a highly ranked university, you go out of Boston, film some non Boston colleges, come back into Boston then miss MIT, and Harvard, go figure.
The first full minute of the video is filmed right on the MIT campus, so it's a little odd to say that the film "misses MIT". The whole point of this tour is to go beyond the most obvious choices. I explain this in the introduction but maybe you didn't get to that point.
I watched this video a year ago and discovered my dream college. I got accepted ED1 in December, and I just wanted to say Thank you for publishing this video and exposing me to other colleges in the Boston area.
@@BestVideos01 I'm afraid I can't because I don't do graduate admissions. I specialize in helping international students apply to undergraduate programs in the US, Canada and Europe. Good luck!
