    No Boston College? Northeastern is a diploma mill for people from other countries. A few years back it had several students from China caught having people paid to take their SAT -- so that is the kind of high quality person you will find at that school. That is why they have the money for new buildings. They let in students so they can overstay their visa.

    Which one would you recommend?

      @@ScottA2345 Listen, BC is a recurring issue in this section, and I'm getting a bit tired of it. In the summer of 2016, I spent five days in Boston with group of selected international school counselors (Boston Area International Counselor Tour, see end credits). We were hosted by the participating colleges, shown around campus, and had an opportunity to talk to students, professors and admissions staff. It was two schools a day, on a tight schedule. I had no time to visit or film at other colleges. Boston College used to be part of that program (it was 10 colleges then, not 9), but they decided they didn't need that kind of exposure any more and dropped out. As a result, they're not featured in my video. Easy as that. ( I did include BC on the website that accompanies this video, see the link).

By highlighting BU and Northeastern among your picks, you inadvertently chose two of the most popular (and familiar-sounding) schools among overseas students. Foreign students made up around 57% and 32% of total student enrollment at Northeastern and BU, respectively. There are already over 10,000 international students studying at Northeastern. Why are they still considered "unheard of" or obscure? You could have substituted these two popular Boston schools with Berkelee College of Music and Simmons University.

But believe it or not, none of the German high school seniors or graduates I've worked with over the past decade had ever heard of Northeastern before (which currently enrolls "only" 18% international students, by the way, according to the 2018-19 Common Data Set). I don't know where you're based, but I find that colleges that are household names in the US are often virtually unknown among 17-year-olds in my corner of the world (Europe) unless they're expats or third culture kids attending international schools where US schools like to recruit. But the point is, really, that this is my personal video of the Boston schools I visited in the summer of 2016, and hence I am free to show the schools that I like and that I believe might be a good fit for the kids I work with.

      ​@@consult-US Northeastern was and is never a well-known name even in its own backyard in Boston. Like BU, it mainly caters to the working-class in Boston to provide Co-op programs or career-focused internship training for its undergraduate students to find jobs upon graduation, focused more on undergraduate education and post-graduate professional programs. The small 73-acre downtown Boston campus does not reflect its true presence. So, your video doesn't quite capture its real scope and scale. In recent years, it has transformed itself and expanded into multiple campuses across Boston and Massachusetts and across North America in places like Charlotte (NC), Seattle (WA), San Jose (CA), and Toronto (ON). It is also building new campuses in Vancouver (BC), Austin (TX) & Minneapolis (MN). Unfortunately, the Common Data Set that you so reliant upon does not include all student enrollments of every college. International students are sometimes lumped into a category called "nonresident aliens"; foreign students taking professional programs are not included in these data set. You should study these schools in greater depth before recommending them to your prospective audience in Germany. I reside in North America and my wife went to school in Boston.
