accepted to College of Engineering for Biomedical Engineering program. Transferred from the school in town with equally high ranking as BU. GPA is 3.3 (typically lower compared to most transfer). Currently take a gap year
Were you accepted today?
BU financial aid came out, nothing. Got no money. Let’s hope my other three schools are more helpful.
@dinwood222 did you get any need-based financial aid?
@dinwood222 Is your EFC low? If so you should do an appeal, maybe they made a mistake.
I still haven’t got my decision. Anyone else? All of my stuff was sent in months ago too so not sure why it’s taking so long
@lau2555 i haven’t heard back either and my app was done in February
My EFC was 0, and got no need-based financial aid. I do not think I am going to go with the appeal process, BU is not my top choice and want to make sure other people get the money.
I don’t think when you turned in your materials is a factor in the decision process
BU didn’t give me a lot of financial aid either. EFC ~20k and got ~15k in grants. I don’t think I’ll be attending even though BU is my top choice.
Anyone here applying to CAS for Computer science heard back yet?
@dinwood222 I’ve heard that BU is quite generous with aid if you’re dirt poor (for transfers too). I have an EFC of 0 and no assets and got bad aid. I then realized I made TWO MAJOR MISTAKES on my CSS profile. You should check if you filed your documents correctly.
For those who got accepted on 4/15 and didn’t receive financial aid yet, did anyone hear back anything? I am still waiting… let me know!
I got accepted 4/23 and got my aid today.
i just called and asked when the next wave of admissions will be released and they told me this week.
If I don’t get a decision back this week I’m just gonna assume it’s a rejection and move on because I can’t keep up with my anxiety
I’m trying to stay optimist but i think i’ll do the same if i don’t get a decision this week. I’ll just move on and focus on my other applications.
I’ve already come to terms that it is a rejection. If it is I won’t be surprised if it isn’t then I’ll be thrilled.
Has anyone been accepted today or yesterday?
I don’t think so… I feel like it’s all rejections from here
