Boston university spring 2021 transfer

@alee14 no problem, maybe? I would email them to clarify they usually answer rather quick and it also never hurts to ask questions!

Did anyone upload the Midterm report? I don’t see a spot for it. All of my professors wrote really nice things in the comment section so I def want to upload it! haha

@nontradishbish hahaha I was just thinking about midterm reports too and I’m quite confused about it as well… I think it might be one of those things once they see you have submitted everything they’ll ask for it? Technically the application deadline isn’t until Sunday so maybe after that too not so sure tho

I submitted my midterm report by just emailing them. I emailed it to schforms@bu.edu. It said to do that under transfer requirements

I submitted my transfer application a couple of days ago, and I was just wondering if anyone else is having trouble getting into their MyBU Portal? When I try to log into MyBU from the link on the admissions page, all that pops up is “Sign-on Error”. Does anyone else have this?

@nontradishbish is your MyBU portal working? mine sayd “Sign-on Error” whenever I try to log in

@joybox24 I am not having that issue, did you call admissions? I’m sure they’ll have it all figured out for you if you call.

turned in my application good luck everyone!

@karpem where did you see the midterm report? I submitted everything on the transfer page, including the ‘transfer reports’ but never did a midterm report. i just want to make sure i’m not missing anything!

My portal is working! I ended up emailing to submit my midterm report and it is shown on my portal as received.

@fran1234567 yeah I called them and they told me to email BU tech support, which I did. Tech support offered some options on how to fix it, but so far I’ve had no luck.

Some background info: I’ve applied to BU before, back in 2019 (RD) and got rejected in March that year. So I think I already have a BU portal attached to the same email I used for my transfer application, and I think this is where the problem is stemming from.

I just emailed BU tech support asking them if they can create a new BU portal for me or something, so hopefully things get figured out.

Wait, is the midterm report optional? I did the transfer report but I didn’t know I needed a midterm report I don’t even have a portal yet omg I’m a mess

@Kam2001 i think according to a transfer mentor they will be asking for a midterm report eventually? I could be wrong I only have it done because another school I applied to asked for one so I knew it probably wouldn’t hurt if I sent one in. Maybe just call admissions to clarify bc I’m not 100% sure. Hope this helps!

@Joybox24 i hope things get figured out as well, it’s a very stressful time for them so hopefully they’ll be able to help you. Fingers crossed!!

@fran1234567 cool ty im gonna try to call them either today or tomorrow!

Is anyone’s portal under the required section complete (like nothing is on there anymore)?

@fran1234567 Mine isn’t, but it’s financial aid stuff which I assume takes a bit of time. I did send them an additional transcript and mid-term report and it hasn’t been put as received just yet!

I feel like there’s a lot less applicants this time around especially because of the pandemic, this forum itself is usually bumping with tons of people as well!

@ramily17 yeah I was looking at previous forums and they had way over 30 pages full of people, crazy!!

And okay I feel better about mine still having stuff there! Thanks!

i wonder if this year because of covid and because its spring if our chances are better or worse lol
