Boston College Class of 2025 -- Regular Decision

Yes, it came out at the same time as the acceptance letter.

Thank you :slight_smile: itā€™s just depressing because I was deferred and then waitlisted from Northeastern too And BC was my top school. None of my other acceptances interest me and itā€™s hard to find any positives in making a decision now. I regret not applying early decision

I feel that completely. I was rejected at northeastern which was my first choice and waitlisted at BC too. I have no idea what to expect for BU but Iā€™m not feeling great about it.

College decisions have been so unpredictable and weird this year. I read your stats awhile back, if these schools donā€™t want you thatā€™s their loss :woman_shrugging:t4: Good luck with BU, Iā€™m sure youā€™ll be accepted

I have a question. We submitted all of our financial aid documents quite a bit ago through the BC portal, and I was very fortunate to be accepted into BC today. Everything in the checklist was checked off when we submitted everything through the portal, but when I went to check my FA decision today, I was very confused to find that BC said that we were missing the 2019 tax return and because of this, they could not give an FA award yet. This was a little frustrating given that we made sure to submit all documents well in advance to make sure we would receive some sort of aid given our familyā€™s financial situation. We are calling BC tomorrow to ask about this. Will this impact the amount of aid that we will receive?

I feel like BC was one of the schools that had its own process for submitting the documents (not IDOC). Did you upload them directly to the website?

did you put your eagle ID and name on all the documents?

Yea we did. Everything was checked off on the list of things we needed to submit as well on the BC website.

Yep, we did. We made sure to. And itā€™s weird because it only says one of the documents is missing rather than all of them. We definitely sent all of the necessary documents in though.

Argh, Iā€™m sorry ā€“ thatā€™s very frustrating. Iā€™m sure it will just mean a delay in your FA but hopefully someone there can help you sort it out! We submitted it all but I know we wonā€™t get any aid so despite my son getting admitted today, itā€™s unlikely he can attend. Wishing you the best of luck, and congratulations on the acceptance! My dad and brother both went to BC ā€“ itā€™s a great school.

Hello! Is the button to enroll missing for anyone else? I canā€™t seem to find it.

DD rejected. Has acceptances and been waitlisted at several other reach schools with much lower acceptance rates, so sheā€™s not devastated. Strange year, but we believe sheā€™ll end up where she belongs, on the other side of the country!:joy:
