Hi! So I’ve been trying to find a thread about BU spring transfers for 2020 but I don’t think there is one yet so I decided to make one
I just submitted my application for the College of Communication this weekend and I am already so nervous to hear back!

Here are my stats
HS gpa: 3.83 uw 4.14 w
College midterm gpa: 3.94 (I’m a freshman so I don’t have a final gpa yet but it should stay the same for the rest of the semester)
ACT: 32 (33 superscored)
pretty good essay and a good rec from a professor

Extracurriculars in HS – 2 part time jobs, captain of ski team junior and senior year, captain of a saferides team for 2 years, internship at a local business, volunteering at local hospital, national honors society, organized and ran a NHS coat drive, summer camp counselor for 2 years, club VP

College extracurriculars – photographer & graphic designer for lifestyle magazine, photographer for spoon university chapter, member of social media committee for service-dog training club, member of podcast/film production club, volunteered during a school wide day of service

please lmk my chances and also if anyone knows when decisions might start to come out!!!

I just applied as well! Good luck guys

I applied too!! I think they started sending out decisions on November 15th last year, so hopefully we’ll hear back at the end of this week. Good luck :slight_smile:

It would be interesting if applicants who get accepted were offered guaranteed transfer by BU when applying as freshman

6

It seems like from reading on the guaranteed transfer threads that the guaranteed transfer program is aimed at Fall entry, maybe not Spring transfer but I am not sure.

I have to submit my syllabi; is this a good sign?
Do we know when we’re supposed to find out?
