******BOSTON UNIVERSITY RD 2019 thread*****

11 days guys!!! does anyone know what time they’re aiming for ???

@bubbles9 ED came out at 2 or 3pm so I would think roughly that time for RD :slight_smile:

I confess…I called D’s admission rep to ask him a couple of questions. He said the emails will be staggered , not go out all at once and stressed not to check before you receive the email. They don’t want the server to slow down. I didn’t notice that the 21st is on a Saturday. Yikes !

Hello everyone!!! I applied ED and got in for SMG. Please ask any questions and I’ll try to answer ~

Oh and just for reference, I applied to ED (admitted) with these:

SAT (2400): 2050
GPA (uw): 3.66

And a whole lot of EC’s (PM if you would like specifics)

When I access the application link (BU) it refers to another link stating “We recommend that you also click on the Applicant Address link at the bottom of the page to be sure we have your correct mailing and e-mail address on file”

I can’t find another link at the bottom of the page… can someone access this “link” to check this??

@Stvincent1 That’s acutally not a new message on the portal. It’s been there since my D’s BU log-in account was established. But there is no link on that landing page you see this message at. You need to click on “Application Status” link at the top or on the right of the screen and then click on “Admissions Status” link. On that “Application Credential Status” page, you will see the last sentence at the bottom "Please verify your address (including e-mail address) by clicking “Applicant Address”. That’s the link in RED that you click to verify your address info. If all info. is correct, you don’t do anything else as there is no button to confirm no change. That’s all there is.

Have any of you guys received idoc notification for BU?

@beczhou‌ I haven’t received that. What is it?

It’s collegeboard income verification where you have to upload copies of tax returns. BU participates in idoc but I didn’t get any notification yet. I’ll call them tomorrow to ask!

Thanks @Shoot4DStars‌ ! I don’t have that RED “address check” option in my “application credential status” Never had it… No wonder I couldn’t find it! Thanks

@beczhou‌ I understand fin aid ask for documentation through IDOC after admission…that is what they told me when I called fin aid.

I got in ED to the CFA’s Theatre BFA, Performance core. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask! Best of luck to all the RD kids.

I got in ED to CAS (computer science), decisions came out a little after 3pm
gpa: 3.34 (terrible I’m but I have 8 APs and and everything else is honors)
& sat: 2080
So if u don’t have a great gpa don’t be discouraged! They look at your whole application not just that stats and everything happens for a reason

@acxdic do you think i have a lesser chance with a high gpa but a lower sat test score?

I’m not a good test taker :frowning: but I take several AP’s and do very well in them

any estimates for when decisions will come out?

they already announced the 21st…check your portal and the email you gave them when you applied

Does anyone know if admittance to the honors college will be stated in the acceptance letter?

@waterpolo14 yes, I think it is supposed to mention honors college
