Boston University Regular Decision 2025: Discussion & Decisions

There are conditions on that guarantee. Basically you must get a 3.0 GPA freshman year at another college and take courses equivalent to what your BU program would include. .

Yeah Im curious too. Could I possibly sent a LoCI to express my desire for Fall?

Syracuse does waves. There was one on the 5th, last Friday, and yesterday. There’s still more so you could get in.

yeah, the general studies program. i got into that

don’t say that!!!
I’m an International student too living in the Caribbean so I do the Caribbean version of A level (CAPE).
I got rejected from Seven schools so far and it took five rejections before I got an acceptance.
don’t worry too much it’ll all work out
you have really good stats and sound like a great applicant
Believe in yourself :yellow_heart:

Oh so for anyone with the University Scholarship

“University Scholars are selected from among those with exceptional financial need and outstanding academic achievement and promise. Total financial aid is offered up to the student’s full financial need, as determined by BU Financial Assistance. A special provision of the University Scholarship ensures that your total BU scholarships will increase at the same percentage rate as any future tuition increase.”

ohhh kk thank you!!

and this year is crazy weird
literally nothing makes sense so don’t be hard on yourself

@solarpower123 Don’t be discouraged! Definitely submit an LOCI and express that BU is your top choice and if admitted you will definitely accept. Colleges are protecting their yield and you have very high stats. It could be that they didn’t think you would accept the spot. Also, if you have any recent extra curriculars or honors that weren’t included in your application you definitely want to include them in your LOCI.

your post is very encouraging, thank you

I have offers of admission already but the ones I like seem to have passed me by like I wasn’t meant to live the dream. BC and BU gone. What else to do but move on.

Dear Boston,
I will never know you. Maybe someday, in grad school.

My D got into St Andrews in 2018. She so wanted to go!!! But she learned after acceptance, that if she wanted to go to Medical School (which she still hopes to do), her credits from St.A’s would not apply! So she turned it down. Its the ONE regret she has, but understands why she had to make it. Shes at NEU, and was accepted to BU as a sophomore transfer. It was a crazy year then too! Good luck to your son. Waiting for my son to get back from haircut so we can learn if he got in. He did get into NEU, so given the track record im reading, perhaps not a good sign for him!

does anyone know where we can view our full tuition cost in the bu portal and see if we got any scholarships?

hard to have any faith now. At least you got accepted somewhere. I’ve been rejected 8 times. The other 2 unis i have left are impossible to get into. Tulane and Harvard. Dont you think i have no chance at them? Thats why i’ve given up. I dont think anyone has ever gotten 1 straight rejections.
