This was just on the BC admissions twitter
“Baldwin can confirm that decisions will be released via email by the end of the week. Continue to follow for the most current information!”

Hey guys!! I got deferred EA, I have a 32 ACT and 4.2 w Gpa, 3.9 UW. I’ve taken 6 APs (European history, language and composition, chemistry, physics, government, and literature) plus honors, I don’t do many extra curriculars but I have a varsity letter in bowling. do you think I’ll get in? BC is my dream school, the wait since December has been PAINFUL. Good luck to everyone!!! hope decisions come out SOON!
My top school is tufts and I feel your pain @HeyaHeya I got deferred from EDII cause of a network problem and the wait sucks but if you didn’t get in I surely won’t :)) I bet you’ll do fine! After all they gave you a second chance for a reason!

I was deferred EA and I have a 33 ACT and 3.95 weighted hoping to get in regular… I got into Villanova early and northeastern off the deferral as well. I also go to a huge feeder school for BC in MA so I hope I get in
@ Willt31 crazy that you even got deferred id be shocked (and worried for myself lol) if you don’t get in
@viewsfromthe415 did you get an email from the director of admissions at tufts saying there was a glitch in the system and they didn’t have your writing supplements cause I did the day before decisions (it was a Thursday) and she said to get them to her by that Sunday but the decisions came out the Friday (the next day). So like I think they deferred me anyway cause there could not have been time for her to read my essays.
I was a QuestBridge applicant which means I had the opportunity to get a full boat scholarship to tufts through ED1 and I was a finalist but didn’t get the scholarship so I was no longer considered for ED1 so I’ve been waiting since October and I seriously have no hope rn :)) :((
Do they send an email with the decision or is it found on the portal?
They send it attached to an email
Does the subject line of the email give the decision away?
BC Admissions posted on instagram tonight that they are sending letters out today (March 15, 2017)
The decision is attached to an email. The subject line does not give the decision away, nor does the email. The subject line was “Early Action Decision from Boston College.” You will have to open the pdf attachment to read your decision.
EA decisions were released at 6pm ET, not 3pm ET as someone posted. The BC twitter account said decisions would be released between 5pm - 6pm ET and be released for approximately 3 hours. My son’s email came closer to 6:30pm ET. It was stressful reading the first posts on the EA thread because, as someone already mentioned, the first people to post were rejections.
On their instagram they just posted for sure its this week
I think they will come out tomorrow but I mean who knows and thanks @paveyourpath I was curious with all the different times being thrown around! I think it will be the same as ED
@paveyourpath Thank you for the clarification! Geez, so nervous!
Good luck and hang in there. Just a couple more days.
