Did anyone receive an email from BC asking if they’d consider changing their application from RD to ED? My son received that email on January 3 and was given until January 6 to make the change if he chose to do so. He declined. Just wondering if anyone else received that email.
That’s really interesting. Do you mind sharing when he submitted his RD app? My D has high stats and applied RD, but did not submit her application until 1/3. She did not receive that type of email from BC. Interesting tactic on the school’s part.
Submitted before 11/18 in order to be considered for Gabelli.

my thought is BC will release ED2 decisions on the 3rd of Feb, the only reason I’m saying this is because their enrollment deposit due date for ED2 applicants is on the 13th of Feb-

Early Decision II Deposit Deadline: February 13
Regular Decision Deposit Deadline: May 1
which I’ve copy-pasted above.
And for ED1, iirc, they released 9 days early, so it would make sense for them to release early for ED2 even though they’ve said we’ll hear “by Feb 15th”. Just my two cents, if I’m incorrect in my hypothesis, feel free to correct me. <3

Last year 3 years they announced ED2 decisions:
Thurs, Feb 3, 2022
Thurs, Feb 4, 2021
Tues, Feb 4, 2020
Maybe on Feb 2? Good luck to everyone applying!

since it’s been thursday the last 2 years, I would assume the 2nd, as well. Maybe even the 3rd if they want to go with that pattern.

I have a quick question. I was deferred from early decision one into regular decision but my application portal still reads early decision one instead of regular decision. Is this the case for anyone else ?
If it helps, I applied ED 1 to a different Boston school and was deferred to the regular round. My portal still says “ED1”
I’m in the same situation, when I scroll down though it says “Submit an RD Update” so I’m assuming once I upload the LOCI it will update to Regular Decision. Fingers crossed that I’ll get in!
Yes fingers crossed I have already submitted the LOCI but I assume that eventually it will update. When it does i’ll update this thread.
Do you know what the statistics are on deferrals being accepted in RD?

Got an email an hour ago about EDII decisions being uploaded this week!
I read something on an old thread that said the acceptance rate was 20% however i’m not sure where that user got that information from so i’m taking it with a grain of salt.

Waiting on RD. Would appreciate any stats that ED2 applicants are willing to post if accepted, rejected or deferred. Thanks in advance.
