I think I would transfer to Villanova. Many will tell you that BU has the better repuation, but BU has way too many students and is mucho overpriced.

????? Villanova is more expensive than BU, about ten grand more.

I am a college counselor, BU gives awful Financial Aid. More expensive and overpriced are two different things.

Well, I was just suggesting that maybe that is why you are favoring Villanova. Financial aid packages are not guaranteed (to the full amount). Or are they?

To be completely honest, I think Villanova admits on a need-blind basis, but I might be mistaken. I do knoe that they do award a substantial amount of grants.
