Boston U Transfers

<p>Can you guys give me the rundown on stats and figures and good/horror stories (if any) on transfers to BU? I'm particularly interested in film and I'd be transfering from UChicago for sophomore year and beyond. Also very interested in fin.aid and need it!!! Are they good to transfers at BU with grants? Thanks!</p>

<p>lol you don't need to ask any questions. BU probably has an auto-admit for ppl transferring from Chicago.</p>

<p>id agree. ill take your spot at chicago when you leave</p>

<p>lol no i answered first...i get it.</p>

<p>well i wont be able to compete with your 4.0, so maybe you will get it...:(</p>

<p>HAHA! a 4.0 from a CC is a far cry from a true 4.0 - trust me. It's all about reasons - but I do hope we both get in.</p>

<p>uhhhh.. uchicago to bu? you must have some compelling reasons to transfer.. haha. but anyways, financial aid is nonexistent at BU.. so good luck with that.</p>

<p>lol yes I'm sure BU will be interested as well when they get an applicant from Chicago and crap their pants. </p>

<p>"WTH?! We've got an applicant from Chicago!"</p>

<p><em>music starts playing and adcoms start dancing</em></p>

<p>Seriously, you are in. I'm just so confused right now.</p>

<p>Thanks forgiven, that's all I needed to know. No fin.aid means no me. </p>

<p>I need to go into film and UChicago just doesn't have the classes I want. I really only accepted UChicago because I was peeved I didn't get Northwestern U (which is what I WANT THE MOST) and because it is Chicago! But now I know I can't stay there more than a year so I'm stuck with a good-name school and a need for fin.aid and a need to transfer. I am now just checking out specific schools that interest me with their film prospects.</p>

<p>Sry not really sure which schools have good financial aid for transfers, but why not give Northwestern another shot? Your determination to attend there and the fact that you currently attend their rival should be enough to get you in. Do they not offer enough aid either?</p>

<p>I got really good fin.aid from UChicago which is why I need a school that can match it but also has a good film program. NU really meets everything I want - because IT'S WHAT I WANTED ORIGINALLY! Sorry, still peeved about it. :)</p>

<p>So if NU meets everything you want (including film school + aid) then apply there. As long as you have a decent GPA, there's a very high chance that you can finally go to your dream school. ;)</p>

<p>northwestern's financial aid for transfers isn't so great.</p>

<p>is anyone's? not being a smarta$$. I'm serious...is there any school that has good financial aid for transfers. I've been unable to find one.</p>

<p>most of the ivy's i assume :]</p>

<p>lol most...not columbia. :(</p>
