Describe your college experience
My college experience so far has been great as I have liked Boston College more and more as the years have gone by.
Tip for future students
One great thing that I feel Boston College offers is the opportunity to be extremely close to the city of Boston while being in an area that can feel suburban in some parts and is very safe.
Favorite class
My favorite class was called The Impact of News on Financial Markets. This class was an economics elective and it really intertwined economics and finance in real time as we would look at how the current events in the world affected global markets and trends.
Career goals
Currently, I am open to many different career paths, but am looking a little deeper into different analyst positions as well as real estate.
Ideal way to spend a free night
I am someone who really enjoys a fun night out with my friends, but also really enjoys to stay in and hangout around the dorms/house. BC offers a great diversity of students who share this opinion.
