International Applicants
the world at a glance
Boston College, a university located in the Boston suburb of Chestnut Hill, is home to international students from 97 nations around the world. The 9,100 students who make up our undergraduate population provide global and national insights that make their four years here a truly enriching academic experience.
In today's complex and increasingly diverse world, the University believes that the best education is one that broadens a student's capacity to reason, to think, and to make critical judgments in a wide range of areas. According to several national publications, Boston College is in the top tier of the nation's colleges and universities. The foundation for that achievement is the University's scholars and researchers — 662 full-time professors who make up the faculty. The kinship between teachers and students is one of the hallmarks of a Boston College education.
