No, they are not the same schools. Boston University is a private, nonsectarian university (with a Theology School that is affiliated with the Methodist Church) located in the City of Boston. Boston College is a Jesuit institution located in chestnut Hill section of Newton, Massachusetts, a few miles west of Boston.

Both schools have national reputations. Whether one school is "better" than the other depends on the particular field of study you intend to pursue and your preferences for academic and living styles.

Both institutions have the preferred regional accreditation by the New England Association of Colleges and Schools. Therefore, the coursework and degree completed through either of these institutions of higher learning will be recognized by all other colleges and universities as well as employers. Issues you should be considering are as follows.

  • accreditation (we already know both have the best accreditation)
  • location
  • campus environment
  • programs of study (majors)
  • entrance requirements
  • cost
  • financial aid availability
  • student services (to include counseling, career advisement, placement, etc)
  • academic learning center (tutoring should be free)
  • computer labs and access
  • classroom size
  • student to professor ratio
  • student activities
