Has anyone appealed financial aid and heard back? If so, did your appeal work and how much more did they give?
Just got into CAS.
Did anyone get the requirement for midterm grades?
@gp1556 yes, they asked me for them last week. It kinda sucks to wait so long, see so many acceptances, and then they request more. I downloaded the document off of their site, got all my professors signatures and grades, and I finally submitted them via email to schforms@BU.edu. Hopefully, after submission, we will hear back early, but I talked to a lady on the phone in their admissions office who said it takes 5-10 days for the forms to process and they don’t know when we will hear decisions(before June). Hopefully, that was helpful. Also what major are you applying for i am shooting for question (international management).
TWO PARAGRAPHS!! good luck everyone !
You probably will get an acceptance tomorrow, because I got two paragraphs a day before my acceptance, which was also on a Thursday
@nyctransfer123 congrats!! can i ask what major you applied to ?
I applied to Chemistry in CAS.
wow! I submitted my midterm report this morning and they already got it. Hopefully, I will hear back soon.
My application just updated. It says:
"We have received your application to the College of Arts & Sciences for the September 2019 semester. If you would like to change the college or school of application, or if you would like to discuss your application, please call BU Admissions at 617-353-2300 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Eastern Standard Time to speak with an admissions staff member.
Our records indicate that your application for admission is complete. Admission decisions for September 2019 will be posted starting in April."
Are these the famous two paragraphs I’ve been hearing so much about?
@mikeobrien21 Yupyupyup
ooooohhhhhh snap. So do you think I’ll hear back today?
To those who have been admitted and have received your fa. What was your fa? I received $65,995. However, $8,500 are in loans. According to BU’s website, the tuition for 2019-2020 will be $72,052. Do you think that the aid I received is good?
Can someone please help me understand this
Need to accept aid award by may 1 but enrollment deposit is due june 1. Does that mean enrollment is binding if I accept the award?? orrrr???
@jinkim528 I believe you just need to accept the award by May 1 and that has nothing to do with enrollment. It’s just acknowledging that you saw the financial aid package and if you do end up enrolling at the school, thats what you’ll be receiving.
@whereto2022 okayyyy got it! thanks so much:)
I haven’t gotten my financial aid award yet, but previously on the portal all my financial aid items were received on March 1, but when I went to check today it said they were received yesterday. Is this something that would negatively impact my package?
