Who’s still waiting for a decision?
@Kenybanana me!
meee
My S just called the admission asking to be put on the “Early Review List”. They said that they are puting him on it but it guarantees nothing. At least we are trying. He has been accepted to Emerson College last week, his top choice. We are just waiting for the financial aid package to decide what to do. Hearing back from BU would be great but now, we are less on the grill !!! 
Good luck for those who have BU on their top choice list. I hope you’ll be hearing back soon.
I was accepted to Questrom today. Excited since it’s the first school I’ve heard from but not my first choice
im still waiting!
Still waiting! But it says that my app and financial aid app are both complete (and yes I called to confirm haha)! I hope I hear back this week <3
I’m waiting also. Really hope that we all hear back by the end of the week. I hope this doesn’t drag onto may.
I hope so too. I want to go to BU so badly but my back up school has a May 1st deposit deadline
My Son’s portal changed. Someone on this thread said that, before he was accepted, his portal changed from 3 paragraphs to two paragraphs. So we are hopping that he will hear back tomorrow. This is what my S has now:

Hi im new to this thread, what did the admissions officer say when you asked to be placed on the early review list? would it affect your chances negatively?
Long time lurker, first time poster. I called yesterday and asked to be put on early review (I’m pretty sure it doesn’t affect your chances negatively or positively). I’m hoping I got in. I just got rejected from NYU today (top choice) so I’m pretty bummed out, and I haven’t been accepted anywhere else yet.
@redpucca I don’t think it affects negatively your chances. If you say that you need to make a deposit May 1st to another school and would like to hear back from BU before doing that, they’ll do their best. They said it doesn’t guarantee anything puting you on this list, but some candidates heard back the following day, so it worth it.
I GOT IN!!! I just happened to check my portal on a whim tonight (10pm) and my decision was there!!!
Others who’ve received decisions— when did you get your transfer credit evals and financial aid info???
Ok so Son just been accepted to BU. We don’t see the FA package, but we see the credits that have been transfered. Very happy, especially because he asked to be put on the early review list yesterday, and they did it and now he has his acceptance letter. Don’t know if he will attend because he has been accepted to Emerson, his top choice. All depends on Financial Aid. I encourage you to give a call to BU to be placed on this “famous list”/ early review. Nothing to lose here. And if you need to decide between severall universities, better to know earlier than later. Good luck to everybody.
I think I must have gotten denied 
I asked to be put on the Early Review List due to a May 1st deposit deadline, and I still haven’t heard back. I was put on it about a week ago. It seems people have asked more recently than that and have already heard back. I’m saddddd 
@porcelyn Was there a change on our portal from two paragraphs to one paragraph prior to your acceptance??
@porcelyn I meant from 3 paragraphs to 2 paragraphs***
@Calliefornia20 Don’t be discouraged. Perhaps my son’s file had been reviewed and evaluated earlier and they were ready to notify him. It’ s true that his portal mentioned that his file was complete for a very long time. Everything was complete since February, and we thought that BU would be the first university to notify him. It was not the case. So don’t make quick conclusions, stay hopeful.
I’m slowly losing hope as well. Has anyone been rejected? Or is all rejection withheld until the final wave and thats why some of us haven’t heard back?
