@bvbchamps are you applying as a sophomore or junior?
@sam127 freshman right now, so applying as a sophomore transfer into Questrom
anyone know what the chances are if you have a sibling that also attends bu?
@bvbchamps then they’re probably just asking because you only have 1 full semester and they want to see how you’re doing this semester
Has anyone else received an email?? I still haven’t hope it’s not a bad sign
anyone’d paragraph still at 3 ?
I’m still at 3 paragraphs but I didn’t get all my documents in until 2 weeks ago so I doubt I’ll be in the first wave of decisions
Just called BU…said having major portal issues and the emails/portal change is due to that. He said applications are still under review and decisions wont be released until mid april
@rbfall2019 I’m also at three paragraphs, but I submitted my application and documents back in December
@freethepuffles same here
I am still at three paragraphs and I submitted it in January.
which course have applied for?
@yoyoyoeyyy so the first wave of decisions won’t be out until mid April? That feels so far away. Ahhh this is brutal
@sam127 that might be the case but I wouldn’t buy into it too much. I think it’s more likely that the people who received those emails have already had their apps reviewed and will be accepted, while those whose portals haven’t changed yet probably haven’t had their apps reviewed… I’ll be surprised if decisions don’t begin coming out next week
@penntousc I hope you’re right. Last year the first wave of decisions came out the first Monday in April
@penntousc The portal however mentions that the decision will be made and informed in late march. Still at 3 paragraphs for me. What do you suggest I do? Call them and ask?
@123vgabc I’m not sure if that statement is directed towards transfer applicants or freshman applicants, or both. I’m still at 3 paragraphs as well and some other people commented and said their portals haven’t changed, so I think they’re still reviewing them. I don’t expect all of the decisions to be released at the same time, so I wouldn’t bother calling them because they’ll just give you some generic answer that probably isn’t accurate and then you’ll be thrown off even more lol
ACCEPTED!
@uhhhhtransfer congrats! Did you get an email or is it on your portal?
I got an email today saying that I was accepted, but they won’t update the portal until next week. It sounds like if you got the other email yesterday you’re accepted.
ACCEPTED! Boston University 2022!
I’m a Freshman with Junior status at SUNY Geneseo.
GPA: 3.92–honors program, double major in Spanish and Psychology
Was accepted initially last year
In psychology research at Geneseo, in Hall Council as mental health advocate, speak 3 languages, 33 ACT, 98 HS GPA from southern NY
Applied to CAS for Psychology and noted that I planned on taking Neuroscience courses w/goal to be bilingual psychiatrist/clinical psychologist
So super excited!
My portal changed to show my change of major, so I haven’t been rejected! Also means apps are still being reviewed and it’s possible that they haven’t even rejected anyone yet, so no reason to worry
