@therealez I️ can’t upload my course syllabi, either. Also, all of my documents have been received for a while now and I️ still don’t have three or two paragraphs yet, either.
What other schools did you guys apply to?
@OJJJJJJJJBK I agree with you it might be very different this year rather than paragraphs.
@hamlet123 I have all of my items checked off to and my checklists have disappeared, as for the course syllabi, I suggest you send an email or call admissions about that. Especially because I have heard the reviewing of classes takes a little longer, so the sooner the better.
@KindaCollegeBound I applied to NYU, USC, and the University of Washington. HBU?
@marlon01 I applied to NYU, Boston College,
University of Rochester, Northeastern, Tulane
and Lehigh.
Hey @marlon01 . what does you application status page look like now ? Since you said your checklists disappeared. Can you send like a screen shots or something.
@vutfs20 Sure thing I am not very tech-savvy so bare with me for a moment.
@marlon01 yeah np. I searched up if the current portal is new to our admissions cycle and found out this portal was released in fall of 2018. With that being said, that would mean last years cycle and the 3/2 paragraph indicator should apply to our cycle unless they fixed that. Here is the link: http://www.bu.edu/tech/times/spring-2019/my-bu-admissions-portal/
I also thought it would be smart to check the spring transfer and if they had the 3/2 paragraph indicator as well. If I’m not mistaken someone said earlier in this thread they had a friend transfer recently and experienced the paragraph situation.
@vutfs20 Hey so I think most people have this but my checklist has disappeared because all of my items have been updated. Therefore this is all that is in my portal.

@marlon01 thats weird. I had everything submitted and all my supplemental documents included course syllabi submitted by 03/01. But when i log into the portal my checklists are still there.
I just can’t tell if that it disappearing is supposed to happen or like an IT issue. Anybody else’s disappear ?
My checklist is under the “received” tab, but other than that my portal looks the same as @marlon01
@gmedeiros09 yeah same thing.
I haven’t submitted my syllabi yet. Having trouble getting copies from old profs. Called BU and they said it won’t affect admissions, it’s the last thing they need. Does anyone know if this is true? Starting to get worried I might get denied if they can’t see what my courses were like.
submitting syllabi is completely separate from admissions
@california203 I also spoke with them about the same issue and they said you can upload them after you are admitted.
has anyone’s portal changed?
Mine still looks the same with no checklist. Still no 2 or 3 paragraphs like others are saying.
Yeah same here my portal is the same. Checklist gone, no paragraphs
Anyone think there is a chance we hear back this week?
