I liked the environment that we were given and the experience is very nice. I was able to make a lot of my life long friends here and will value the opportunities I have been given.

What I like most about BG are the small class sizes. I had come from a public school which was very large. We also have great bonds with the teachers and staff. Each and every student feels as if they are part of family while attending and after graduating BG.
