Boston university transfer fall 2020

They sent me an email and then I checked my portal, but it’s weird because the letter was dated April 17th

@buttercup8989 my decision letter was dated the day before I got it as well. Im sure more decisions will come out today. I didn’t get mine til 3:20 on Friday and that was me randomly checking my portal and then they sent my email an hour later.

Yeah you receive your decision the day after it was made i think. They don’t release decisions on weekends and yesterday was 4/20 so i think that’s why you received it today. congrats again guys

I bet there will a be lot tomorrow if that’s the case.

Did they also give reject paper?

Hey y’all,
I just got accepted to BU today still no financial aid but I wanted to give my stats so it could help someone out :slight_smile:

Applied for CAS
High School GPA- 4.0 out of 4.5
College GPA- 3.73
SAT- Didn’t submit them
Leadership roles in HS
Sports, Clubs, NHS, AP courses
My first essay was really good and my second for why BU was kinda eh honestly.

I’ve been checking my BU portal every day pretty much since February but they received my transfer college report on Wednesday of last week. They sent my decision today at about 1 in case anyone was wondering. Even though this isn’t relevant now (I’ll post my financial aid whenever I get it) my EFC last year was 0 and should still be 0. I called and asked when the financial aid packages should arrive and they said that within a week from today so hopefully I can update everyone in a week or maybe by Friday. Either way good luck everyone! I hope you all get your letters soon, I’ll update when I get some more news.

ACCEPTED!!
CAS // Anthropology
4.0 GPA from a CCC
Letter dated April 17th

It was actually pretty anticlimactic because I woke up to an email titled “Congrats on your BU Acceptance!”. I logged onto the portal and then saw the confetti and letter this morning! It’s $650 to commit by June 1st, that’s so much but aughhh I wish you all luck!! <3

i’m also transferring in as a sophomore!!

yay congratulations!

Should I expect to see changes to my portal before I receive a decision?

Have they been giving out rejection letters?

Have any history majors gotten a decision? I feel like I’m the only history major on here lol. Haven’t heard back. Coming from UCLA with a 3.8

Anyone applying for CS? And have you heard back yet?

Yes I got accepted today and applied as a history major!

anybody who applied to sargent hear back?

At what time did you receive your decision?

Have any accepted students received a welcome packet in the mail? I got a couple from other schools but nothing from BU

@ahy2000 I have not received anything from them yet.

Accepted into CAS Linguistics on April 21! Received an email notification at around 12:30 pm. I actually haven’t read my acceptance letter yet. They sent a separate email an hour later about joining BU virtual events and the very first sentence when I opened the email said “Congratulations again on your admission to Boston University!” so that’s how I knew. I was too nervous to view my decision letter, but I guess that’s one way to find out.
