BU has a calc pre-req. I want to apply there but I have not taken calc and will not take calc because it is not required by my major. Does anyone know of anyone who has been excepted into their program without taking calc?

Schools usually aren't willing to budge on their course requirements unfortunately. I would still try calling and asking to see if they'd be willing to be flexible on that one, but don't expect much.

If BU is your dream school (I don't know why it would), you need to take calc. If not, spend the application money on some other school.

If you really want a shot at BU, you are going to have to take calc. I was in a similar situation with Harvard. I took calc only to satisfy their requirement.

Hey so I've been seeing a number of people saying that Boston is middle of the road. Any specific reason you think this?

Not one I should say on a public forum.
