definitely knew this was a hard reach school but decided to give it a shot and apply, because why not right?
Good luck!!

I don’t understand. Why was I accepted to the Honors College? There are a lot of CC users here who have better ACT and GPA than me and they are all either getting deferred or accepted but not in the Honors College. Does BC put a lot of weight on EC’s?

Also are the acceptance letters personalized?

Congrats to everyone who got in and good luck in the next round to all who were deferred!

@vcq7890 I’m not sure what you mean by personalized. Someone posted a portion of their acceptance letter to BC’s twitter page so you can take a look at that. The college accepted to is plugged in and then a couple of paragraphs down it seems some have been notified of 3 or 4 years of guaranteed housing so that is another way it varies. Much of the rest looks the same to me.

For those of you that did not receive an email (@shmacc @ethan7) did you receive the 11/17 email advising that decisions would be emailed out? In that email, when you clicked on it the email referenced in bold on top “early action applications” or something to indicate these were early app candidates? Are you sure you selected EA?

Got deferred.

Low-key super bummed. Didn’t realize it would be this crazy, and didn’t realize I am just not up to par. It was a dream school but still thought I could have maybe made it… :frowning:

Oh well. I am still very happy that so many with AMAZING stats got in! You all deserve it and well done!!!
