does BC offer dorms and how can I get into it? I am also wondering as a junior what can I start doing to achieve that goal?
Boston College has a bunch of dorms! They guarantee most students 3 years of residency on campus, and 90% of seniors continue to stay on campus, so it shouldn't be hard to get a dorm.
As for getting into Boston College itself, some specifics may vary based on your school and demographics, but generally if you want to have an easier time at getting in, you'd want:
- 3.9 UW GPA
- 33 ACT or 1430 SAT
- As many AP/College/Honors or whatever the highest courses your school offers and allows are as possible.
- If you haven't already, get involved in extracurriculars. Ideally, these are major-specific, but if you don't know what you want to do, now's a great year to find out!
- If you're athletic, it'd be nice to have a sport on your application.
