@thetransferguy21 did u submit a midterm reprot? Do you know how they choose to accept who first? Maybe I got rejected since I did not get in today

@bobsmith5101 I didn’t get a decision today either. My applicant Link updated to ask me for an midterm report. I sent that in, hopefully we can hear back soon. Fingers crossed.

Congrats to everyone who found out they got in today!! I’m so jealous that you all know so soon!

I submitted my CommonApp on February 28 and mailed some supplemental materials on that day as well (my final college report, midterm report, and high school transcript) but my ApplicantLink still shows that they haven’t received those things yet! I emailed the admissions office about a week ago and they told me that it’s all down to processing delays and it’s been killing me! I even called again today and asked them about it and they were just like “We have a large volume of applicants, it’s normal to wait this long for application updates,” but I’m dying here haha! It’s just so stressful waiting for those decisions.

@porcelyn same!! I am so sad that I did not find out today-it says I don’t have a certain document but sent it weeks ago:( maybe we are rejected since we did not get in today since a lot found out today??

Do you guys think people will continue to hear today?

Thats great news. Congrats! That means we may be expecting to hear any day now.

Congrats! Did any of you guys have any outstanding documents? The only transcript their missing from me is from a 4 credit summer program that I did at BU :confused: Annoyed that it’s probably why I haven’t heard.

@transfer1017 my fall grades were missing up until last week. I called BU and they said that they had received them and processed my transcript while I was on the phone.

My applicant link current says they’re missing my mid term grade. I sent them in via email 3 days ago. How long do you guys think after that should my applicant link update? Should i give them a call?

I just submitted the last outstanding document I had. I really hope they process it quickly, so I can find out soon. Anyone have a guess on how long it will take? The rest of my app was completely submitted before the deadline.

@Calliefornia20 Im wondering the same thing. I submitted my midterm report could of days ago and they still haven’t processed it. How did you submit it? By mail or email?

@LinkandZelda Yeah mine was a midterm report as well. I submitted via email!

Congrats to everyone who got in!! I did yesterday as well, to the college of arts and sciences :slight_smile: I just have a question about transfer credit evaluations. Are they finalized yet? Because my page only shows the courses I took last semester, and I sent the syllabi for my current semester as well. My main concern are the credits because I hope most of them are transferable
