You don't really believe that Boston University is a better school than Boston College, especially in economics and finance, do you?
The fact that they are both in MA is two strikes against them, which means I don't care much for either one {although Boston College has a beautiful campus with cathedral like buildings} Boston University is more like Newark, NJ or the upstate NY prison, Sing Sing.
BU is just as good as BC,it’s an urban school,BC is more suburban,but they are both great universities.
