Boston University-Fall 2019- Transfer

@“FutureIbanker/hfmanager” That makes me relaxed and scared at the same time lol. I think I’m above the average transfer applicant applying to BU. However, I’ve seen good applicants get denied and less competitive applicants get in. Keeping my fingers crossed now.

I submitted my application on 3/1 but haven’t received an email for a portal login yet, anybody else in the same boat?

I submitted mine earlier and still haven’t gotten anything

@riceballs it took me a week to get the email, so I guess you might want to give them one or two more days. If you still don’t get the email. I think you should contact them.

@penntousc I go to Syracuse and everything seems to be earlier for us than most schools. Best of luck to you on your exams!!

@ajsaxton oh okay, I actually just applied to cuse as well! Thanks!

@penntousc let me know if you have any questions about Cuse!

Hi! I’m currently a freshman applying from the University of Pittsburgh. I would have completed 36 credits by the end of this year, and here are my stats:

College GPA: 3.942
SAT: 1300
High School GPA: 91% or a 3.7
I took 5 APs and almost every honors class in my school.
Majors: Environment and/or Sociology
Jobs: currently have 3 as a summer camp counselor, research assistant, and Jumpstart corps member (preschool teacher)
Activities: many leadership positions, including Big Brothers Big Sisters, NHS, FBLA, Rotary Club, I’m a radio DJ, involved in many extracurriculars, and I edit the campus sociology journal, etc.

I just applied, I and am really nervous! Could anyone tell me what my chances would be? Thank you so much!

Does anyone know when BU sends admissions decisions out?

@amberly99 my guess would be 3 weeks from tomorrow, on April 1st. I’m pretty sure they started coming out April 2nd last year, so if they release them the same way, we’ve got about three weeks.

I applied to BU on 3/1. However, I have not received my portal. Has it happened with anyone else also?

@AshwinDamani I applied to BU on 3/1 as well, and I received my portal last week.

has anyone filled out the NACAC Request for Transfer Admission Application Fee Waiver? am i supposed to send it to BU through snail mail?

@ajsaxton
Hey, I go to Syracuse too.

I applied to Syracuse as a sort of backup/last choice option but I’ve already met at least a handful of people who are trying to get out this year so I can’t necessarily say I’m eagerly waiting for my decision lol

Hello! Have someone received their decision letter?

I haven’t. sadly

Does tomorrow’s decision date release apply to us (transfer)?

Are transfer decisions supposed to come today?

Decisions are supposed to arrive mid to late April, I called a couple days ago and asked.
