Joint Information Session with BU Academy
Thanks to all who joined our Directors of Admission as they took questions and shared their insights on our respective academic programs and unique communities for the 2021–2022 admissions season. If you missed the event (or just want to rewatch!) you can view a recording.
There's such an amazing community. And that's the reason that I decided to attend Commonwealth. Everybody knows everybody else's name and seniors will hang out with freshmen. And that's just normal. And that's without even getting into the superb academics and extracurriculars offered here.
