Boston University-Fall 2019- Transfer

Thank you @zs2019transfer ! I didn’t apply aid this year, because the deadline had passed when I just finished collecting the materials.

Does anyone have an issue with their applicant portal? I logged on to check my status but when I click status it says “UISA.BU.EDU:1038 not available: Connection refused”
I dont think this is the paragraphs everyone is talking about? lol
HELP!

You should call their number and ask them for some technical assistances.

@roomba6576 i had that too but it just went away

@Suzzyy Hey sorry for a late response (Easter weekend is crazy). I took six classes this semester 5 were 3 credits one was 4 credits. The four-credit class was Calc ( i normally wouldn’t take this but questrom required it) I currently have a solid B (hopefully A- before the end of the year). I had four A’s in Organizational Behavior, Social Ethics, Intro to Finance, and International relations. Finally, I have an A- in Behavioral Economics. The B really made me nervous, but since I’m taking extra classes they might have been more forgiving. Also, two of my professors whom I have A’s in their classes are BU alum which may have helped my odds. as long as there is not a major drop in your performance you should be fine. Keep on working hard!

@zyjbbbb That is three paragraphs, I have the same on my account. Anyone care to post what two paragraphs looks like?

I’m an international student. I waived my TOEFL request and they said in email that request for TOEFL won’t disappear until a final decision has made. That message has been on for like a month and this morning it disappeared. But this is still three paragraphs? I am soooooooo confused.

i feel like its because of the volume of apps they have they just haven’t updated the portal try not to worry too much about it you should be fine! there have been people in the thread who had three and had their decisions posted

Does anyone know how many applications they received this year?

@McDrew123 @zyjbbbb this is the two paragraphs (when your portal changes to this that means your decision will be out soon):

@whereto2022 THANK YOU! So happy someone could finally give me a taste of the two paragraph life. Fingers crossed my portal looks like that soon!

The two paragraphs have been posted a dozen times already in this thread.

Does anyone know if BU’s classes are typically 3 cr or 4cr?

Anyone think a big wave will be released this week? Applied a while ago and just worried because transfer open house is in early May from what I’ve heard…still on three paragraphs

Has anyone not get their FA package yet? Got my acceptance last week and my financial aid status still hasn’t updated. I’ve called and they just told me to keep waiting

Appeal financial aid rejected. This sucks
