Prompt: Students consider many different factors when applying to college. Briefly discuss who or what influenced your decision to apply to Boston University.

Please look for grammer/spelling problems. There also may be a problem with the flow and the phrasing of the entire essay. I don't know if this properly answers the prompt, so please look into that. Thank You!

Ever since I first discovered the existence of Boston University I knew it was the school for me.
One of the main reasons for my applying to Boston University is the psycology B.A/M.A/Ph.D programs that are offered. I have heard rumors of the mind-numbingly difficult work that is associated with these programs, but these are only factors that will ulitmately help me.

I am also drawn to the sophisticated study abroad programs; programs that I plan to partake in if I am accepted. It has always been my dream to take my academic career overseas to experience a different learning environment. Not only will studying abroad help open my mind to alternative teaching methods, but I will also be exposed to an unfamiliar language and culture.

Additionally, the impressively low teacher to student ratio at Boston University is one of my favorite aspects because despite the fact that it is one of the largest private universities, personal instruction and aid is still available to students.

Initially I was hesitant to consider Boston University because it is so distant from California; both culturally and geographically. However, I realized that the different environment and culture would allow me to become my own person; without any influence or help from my family and friends. I would also be allowed a new start in a place where no one knows me; an opportunity that only comes once or twice in one's lifetime. I know that once I am remove from my comfort zone in Irvine, I will be able to fully become independent and accumulate my own experience. Boston University is the door that will help me become the person that I have always dreamed of being.

In a similiar vein, I have been raised in a diverse community, and this is something that I will never let go of. I realize the Boston has many aspects that attracts people from all over the world, thus creating the perfect diversified mixing pot that I crave for.
