Boston university transfer fall 2020

@ahy2000, nope i plan to do it next semester if i don’t get into BU, i’m not eligible for Fall 2020.

Does anyone know what will determine who gets decisions in the first wave or is it completely random

i think it’s completely because when i looked at last year thread i saw people who uploaded all they documents late and were among the ones that received decisions first.

completely random*

In regards to not having paragraphs because it is an updated system, I don’t think we should rule out the possibility of it appearing. Rather, I looked up when was the last major update to their application/portal site and it was in the fall of 2018. That would mean, last year had the same portal as we do now and since they had paragraphs I don’t see why we wouldn’t. Unless that an update was done and that they didn’t publicize it.

We should expect something today at 2pm EST

What makes you say 2 PM?

In previous years they released transfer decisions around 2 PM

Please guys if you receive your decisions, let us know!

Hi guys I’m new to this group and I’m an incoming sophomore I think… based on my credits. I wish all of you luck. I hope I’m one of the first ones I’m just so anxious about this.

Has anybody gotten their decision yet???

nope nothing has changed. if they start releasing today it wont be until later i think. good luck everyone!

Good luck! I hope everything works out for everyone in the end :slight_smile:

Just a friendly reminder that most colleges teach you the same material the only difference - which is slight - is the job placement & alumni connections. Don’t get caught paying 76k per year to get the “prestige”. Make sure you see the value in all your options. Good luck to everyone!!

Hey guys! I’m so stressed bc my application still isn’t marked as complete. They ended being confused about my hs transcript and asked for another one. I explained the situation last week and emailed another unofficial transcript yesterday, but haven’t gotten a response and it still shows as missing in the portal. I’m so anxious to find out the decision!

@lanib22 It usually takes two weeks to process any documents you send so you may get your decision a bit later but I’m sure you will be considered all the same!

does it come out at 2PM exactly

@dinwood222 I don’t think anyone knows for sure if they’re even coming out today… admissions gave such mixed answers to the people who called and asked so who knows honestly. It’s really anxiety-inducing lol

Thanks! I’m fine with that, but I just wish I could get a response. I feel like this could go either way for me because of my hs situation, but I don’t even know how much that will factor into the decision.

What makes people think that the decisions are coming out at 2pm today?
