Boston university transfer fall 2020

for people that received financial aid, where did you find it on the portal?

Wow! Congratulations!!! I’m in a similar situation and I’m happy to see that you still got in regardless of your past. I hope you have a great time at BU!!!

@vuvananh99 Yeah I got the same thing. A letter popped up said I was accepted but didn’t say which school. I closed it, logged out, logged back in, and the letter was gone. I guess it’s just a mistake on their hand, or we were accepted but they haven’t decided which school they would take us.

Accepted to College of Arts and Science specifically Anthropology!

My EFC is 0 and I only got $32k in aid. Is that normal? That’s a lot to pay.

i just got grants for financial aid, did anyone get any academic scholarships? i’m a 4.0 first gen college student so i was expecting some sort of academic scholarship

my EFC is 0 and same here with aid… 36 if I want loans 30 ish if I don’t… quite honestly its BS

Is it possible not to get into the school you applied to but they place you in another school like the college of general studies?

did you apply for financial aid? I saw people got admitted and had their aids also

I am also first gen with a 4.0… was expecting more from them. Disappointed.

just called admissions and they offered no information of substance. they said decisions can come out any day and to just keep checking in… certainly not the best scenario for those with anxiety

No decision for me yet :frowning:

@falltransfer2020 congrats!!! is that scholarship purely based off of your academics or is it financial aid?

Are decisions still coming out?

@ mill213 can you still view your decision now?

i got in!!!

@TenTsewang4 congrats!! is that 65k scholarships in grants for financial aid or did you get academic scholarships? i got a good deal of money from them as well but it’s just grants, no academic scholarship yet. do i have to wait?

Accepted to Questrom! 4.0 Community College GPA

I still got my financial aid checklist and it looks like I’m going to get 0 aid which makes no sense because UNC financial aid and NCSU gave me legit a full ride almost on financial aid. Plus the 650 enrollment deposit is crazy. Im probably going to decline my acceptance and attend UNC or NCSU, Stanford if I am lucky.

Hope this spots goes to someone else that is more deserving!

@vuvananh99 yes, my portal updated so i can see my decision, financial aid, credit evaluation, etc.
