Boston university transfer fall 2020

Is anyone still waiting for decision? I haven’t gotten anything yet. no rejection or whatever.

Yep still waiting, I got into more competitive schools so I’m wondering why they haven’t accepted or rejected yet.

I was accepted yesterday into CAS coming from a NJ CC with a 3.1 gpa as a bio major. I had an alumni recommendation so i’m sure that helped. Wish you guys all the best good luck

Got accepted into CAS as a rising junior on 5/22!!! I saw that there is a Facebook group for transfers, but has anyone started a groupchat somewhere else?? If so, I’d like to be added :slight_smile:

I emailed to BU admission office, and they said they are still reviewing our application.

Did anyone try extending the deposit deadline for BU? I want to extend my deadline from June 1 to June 15.

Are they going to review the rest of the applications until end of May?

Did anyone get to request to waive their admission deposit?

Where do you do that?

Has anyone noticed how low their financial aid awarded is? Legitimately my family makes less than $16,000/yr. and my EFC is 0 (and would be much lower into the negatives if 0 wasn’t the ultimate bar). It’s making me reconsider whether I should even try to attend BU or not, I noticed schools like BU as well as others like NYU make this kind of unrealistic promising of 100% need-met financial aid but they really don’t do that. How are you guys going about this?

To clarify, I was accepted and have an EFC of 0, yet their aid is so, so low (I figured this was a likely possibility, but it’s pretty frustrating).

@phytoplankton Same thing happened to me… they barely gave me any financial aid even though my efc is 0. I got an email saying it was because i submitted the fafsa around 3 weeks after March 1st, so I wasn’t given full consideration. Did you submit something late as well? I’m calling financial aid again on Monday to learn about the appeal process.

Does anyone still waiting for the decision? I still in the review process for one month. Nothing change in my account. I send email to the admissions office. They told me the decision will come up to me in the next few weeks. But the website said the announcement will be end in the mid-may. I’m confused. Does anyone has the same situation as me?

is anyone else’s portal down? I can’t even reach the applicant status page because it tells me that the website is not secure… I’ve tried both on chrome and safari and neither seem to work

@jessyyyytransfer im still waiting for the decision, bu admission is a joke. a friend of mine emailed them a few days ago, and they said the decision will be out before Friday, now its Sunday so loll

It says international transfer decision comes out in late May.
I am an international transfer but haven’t heard back yet huh?
I’m just gonna go to NYU

Still waiting. Why are east coast colleges late for their decision? like UCs already announced without delay.

Is anyone still waiting for a decision?
