Experience Our Campus
Explore our magnificent campus, noted for its Collegiate Gothic architecture, award-winning Stokes Hall, and Bapst Library, consistently ranked as one of the most beautiful college libraries in the country.
As a Jesuit, Catholic university that challenges students to use their education to address society’s pressing needs, we compel you to combine reflection and self-discovery with action. We encourage you to look inward and act outwardly—to take advantage of the many reflection opportunities here and translate your growth into contributions to the common good.
We’re dedicated to the formation of the whole person—to your academic, personal, spiritual, and social growth. Our Core Curriculum broadens your intellectual horizons while shaping your character. Learn more about the BC difference.
We make the process as smooth as possible and ensure that your completed application receives careful, thoughtful, and deliberate attention from our admission committee.
We’re committed to ensuring that all admitted students—no matter their socioeconomic backgrounds—can succeed at BC. We're one of just 21 private U.S. universities that are need-blind and meet the full demonstrated need of all accepted students.
“We seek a new generation of leaders who are academically talented, intellectually curious, desire a close-knit community, and are eager to use their talents to improve society. As a Jesuit university, our students represent a range of backgrounds but share a commitment to personal growth, character formation, and service to others.”
We've curated a gallery of dozens of videos—from campus tours and incoming class welcomes, to features about the academic, social, and spiritual journeys our students take during their time on the Heights—to give you a better understanding of what it means to be a member of the Boston College community.
The Common Data Set initiative is a collaborative effort among data providers in the higher education community and publishers as represented by the College Board, Peterson’s, and U.S. News & World Report. The combined goal of this collaboration is to improve the quality and accuracy of information provided to all involved in a student’s transition into higher education.
