2017学生评价
Academics 学术
BU boats some of the best academic programs in the country.
BU拥有全美最好的一些学术项目。
Great opportunities for different courses.
在这里你能有机会上到各种丰富多彩的课程。
BU has a very challenging grading system, but it makes students very dedicated to their studies and go the extra mile.
BU的分数成绩很难拿，但也正是因此，很多学生都得以更加努力让自己在学术上更上一层楼。
Campus 校园
Facilities are great. Some buildings are a little old but they're working on improving them.
校园设备很完善，虽然有一些建筑年代有点久远，但是学校也在努力维护修缮。
Boston is an amazing city and you'll fall in love with it.
波士顿是一座你绝对会爱上的美妙城市。
Boston is a great city with a lot to do. Public transportation makes it easy to get around the city.
波士顿是一座丰富多彩的城市，你总能找到喜欢的事情做。而且公共交通非常发达，想要到哪里都很方便。
Food 餐饮
You can get what you want if youre willing to pay but most things close early
只要你愿意花钱，什么想吃的都能吃到，不过学校不少吃饭的地方都关的挺早的。
Definately and all dining points plan would be the best.
学校的食堂很赞，我推荐首选all dining points的meal plan。
There aren't a lot of student discounts, but options are great. The food is overall really good.
虽然学生没什么特别的折扣，但是选项很多，而且总体来说吃的真的很不错。
Health & Safety 健康和安全
Administrators enforce drug safety, but it's still prevalent on campus. Honestly, if you're not involved in it, you won't hear much about it.
学校管理禁止使用毒品，但是校园里还是挺流行的。不过说实话，除非你参与这件事，你几乎了解不到。
Although I feel safe walking down campus at night, one step into Allston and I need to be in a group. Sexual assault issues are very real, just as any campus in the country. It's best to just watch your back and you'll probably be fine.
虽然我感觉晚上在校园走挺安全的，但是一走进Allston我就觉得我一定得跟着大家一起行动。性侵真的会发生，就像其他学校一样。不过如果你注意个人安全的话也不会有什么事。
Only on the main street
我感觉只有大路上会比较安全。
Housing 住宿
Freshman/sophomore housing is usually typical dorms. Stuvi and 1047 are the best places, with 1047 having laundry machines in each room. Proximity to classes depends on where you live on campus - West is pretty far from most colleges. If you want a more social/party atmosphere, live in west.
大一大二的住宿就是普通的学校宿舍。Stuvi和1047两个宿舍是最好的，1047每间房都有洗衣机。住在不一样的地方，离上课的教室也远近不同，West离大部分教学楼都比较远，但如果你更喜欢社交party，还是住在West比较好。
Campus housing looked very promising and inviting - I just don't do campus housing.
学校住宿看起来很不错，虽然我个人不大喜欢住校园。
There is no AC in most dorms. The heater is cranked up during most of winter to the point where it gets too hot. I like living on campus because classes are very close (5minutes walk).
大部分宿舍都有空调，冬天也会一直开暖气。我喜欢住在校园是因为离教室比较近，大概走个5分钟就到了。
Overall Experience 总体体验
Boston University offers a wide variety of courses no matter what your major is. Some Professors are better at teaching material than others, but overall the workload is very competitive among students. Resources are available for academic advising, graduating, etc., but the University needs to do more to help students as they progress through their undergraduate studies.
BU的课程十分丰富，不论什么专业都能上到各种各样的课。有一些教授比其他教授教得都好，不过总体来说，课上学生间的竞争还是挺大的。关于选课选专业毕业等等的帮助和资源也都有，但是学校真的需要增加多一点针对本科生的学术帮助了。
Excellent professors that teach using real world examples. Encouraged to participate in weekly discussions with fellow classmates and facilitators. Workload is manageable if you stay current with assignments and readings. Courses are not easy, but a great challenge.
教授都很棒，他们教课的时候会用真实的例子帮助教学。学生们也被鼓励着去参加每周和同学助教的讨论。如果你一直保持作业和阅读的进度不拖沓，课业就还不会太重。虽然不少课都不简单，但这也是很好的锻炼。
The campus isn't traditional and not my favorite because of how far everything is from each other, but it's really incredible and unique to be nestled right into the city of Boston. There are wonderful opportunities and the professors are really willing to help you grow. As an International Relations major, the amount of resources available to me are really encouraging.
BU虽然没有传统意义上的校园，也不是我最喜欢的，因为很多地方都隔得挺远的，但是我一直觉得它能这样坐落在波士顿城区内是挺特别的。学校给学生提供了各种机会，教授也都很愿意帮助学生。作为国际关系专业的我，能得到这样多的机会和资源让我觉得很受鼓舞。
Party Scene 校园派对
Party scene exists, you don't have to party if you don't want to.
学校有不少party，但是如果你不想去也不需要参加。
There are parties that you can go to if you want to.
但是你要是想去也有不少选项。
The BU frat parties aren't too great in my opinion, but there are people who like them. I enjoy off campus parties more, which are always an option.
我觉得BU的兄弟会party很一般，但是不少人也挺喜欢的。我更喜欢在校外party，而且校外也有不少选项。
I am not a person that likes to go out too much, however the Fenway area is very nice to go to. There is also a bowling place there which also has a bar. Around the city there are more places to go to as well and they are easy accessible on the T.
我不是特别爱出去玩，不过Fenway附近还是不错的地方。那里也有带酒吧的保龄球馆。城里也有各种各样可以玩的地方，而且坐T就可以轻松去咯。
I don't know much about the bar scene, but there are always parties to go to, especially off campus.
我不大了解附近的酒吧，但是还是有不少party可以去，尤其是校外的。
There aren't any huge frats on campus, but there are always off-campus parties to go to.
虽然校内没有特别大的兄弟会party，校外还是有不少party可以去的。
Student Life 校园生活
There are so many people from diverse backgrounds, and you'll end up meeting a variety of different people.
BU充斥着各种不同文化背景的人，在这里你会遇到各种各样的朋友。
Honestly, Greek life is insignificant at BU. You can join one, and no one will really treat you any differently. The nice thing about BU Greek life is that you can be involved as little or as much as you want - it doesn't take over your life. It's a great way to find a different group of people to hang out with as well.
说实话，BU的兄弟会姐妹会真的不大多。你可以参加，但是没有人会区别对待你。很好的一点是在BU的兄弟会姐妹会，你想深入参与或者就是玩玩都可以，它不会占有你所有的时间。当然，这也是多多交友的好方式。
The only popular varsity sport is hockey, and I really only go to one a year. The school spirit is definitely lacking, but there are people around campus that are die hard Terriers. Club sports is a great organization that is fantastic to be a part of.
唯一一个很受大家欢迎的运动项目是冰球，不过我每年都只去看一场。我觉得校园的团结气氛有点缺少，不过也有不少很热情的人。各种运动俱乐部都是不错的组织，我觉得作为其中的一员也是很棒的体验。
Way too much Greek Life. I am not in Greek life nor am I interested in it. Fraternities and sororities do not seem to do anything but party. Some of my greek friends are quite intelligent and nice.
这里太多兄弟会姐妹会了。我对这个不大感兴趣，他们似乎也就只会开各种party。不过我的一些参与这些的朋友也都挺和善而且聪明的。
I am not a big fan of sports in terms of playing and also watching. I have only been to one sporting event. A lot of people care about hockey, but I have never seen a game, nor do I plan to. It placed 2nd in the nation in the 2015 season, but I could not care less.
我对体育运动的兴趣不大，我只去看过一次运动活动。很多人都很关心我们学校的冰球队，但我没有看过他们的比赛。2015年他们打下了全国第二，但我个人其实不大关心。
Value 发展价值
BU has a great reputation in the jobs aspect. Most students are employed in some way or another after graduation.
BU在职业发展方面很出名，很多学生刚毕业就能找到工作。
Highly rated school in the same class as NYU - in a world where reputation matters, this is essential whether we like it or not.
和NYU一样评价高的BU是一所非常注重名誉的学校，无论我们喜欢与否。
Although I do not like the school very much overall and would probably not recommend it to anyone pursuing a career in classical music, I have to admit that the BU Center for New Music did change my goal as a composer. I used to want a career in commercial music such as film scoring, but now I am going for purely artistic music.
虽然总体来说我不是特别喜欢我们学校，而且并不会推荐给想要从事经典音乐行业的人。我不得不承认BU的New Music中心确实改变了我想要成为一名作曲家的目标。我曾经想要从事商业音乐或者电影配乐方面，不过现在我想追求纯粹的艺术音乐了。
