Has anyone called to ask yet?
I dont think 2 paragraphs mean anything but they have reviewed my app. Cant imagine that it would turn to 2 paragraphs today and I would get a decision today. It may well just mean an early rejection. It is better to know early either way… GOod luck to everyone!

lets hope they get released at 2 today
@bklyngal The thing is that the 2 paragraphs means that your application has been reveiewed and thus you are getting your decision early. It’s been proven that most early decisions made are acceptance rather than rejections because why would BU reject so early on without looking at everything and asking for mid terms. Even BU worker said themselves the majority of first round decisions are acceptance and they only reject those who are out of their range. As a result of this we associate the 2P with early decision which is mostly acceptance.
I agree with @r3j3ct3d1 . All the info we have so far is based on precedents BU set themselves in the past years of transfer admissions. While they could very well have changed it, it seems quite unlikely.
As for early rejections, @bklyngal , I doubt you would be rejected this early unless you were so far out of BU’s range they’d have no reason to keep you for consideration (I don’t know your stats but I’m going to guess this likely isn’t the case). If anything, you could receive your decision perhaps sometime this week if not today. I remember from last year’s thread that the decisions started being released the first Monday in April, continued throughout the week, and then continued (I believe) almost every week after in a similar fashion until May, when rejections/waitlists were released. If your paragraphs changed today, perhaps you can expect a decision later in the week. It’s all speculation.
Regardless, I wish you all the best. We’ve got a little less than two hours to go until 2PM EST–we’ll see what happens
Is it 2pm yet? lol If I don’t hear back today I might explode inside I can’t wait much longer
I’m so mad that I’m still at 3 paragraphs I don’t want to waitttttt til the next wave
How do we know when decisions are out? Do they send email or we just check portal?
Less than an hour until 2pm. Keep your emails open and hope for the best!
(@yankeebanger They said they’ll send an email when your decision comes out–I applied as a freshman last year and they emailed me when my decision was on the portal)
@yankeebanger They send out an email when they update your portal
I really hope they don’t make me wait 2-3 weeks and then just ask for the Midterm report…
I wouldn’t expect it at 2PM unless they’ve done that prior to last year too lol. It could be anytime during the day
@msport they’ve released it at 2 pm the past 2 years
I was in the transfer process last year and received a decision around 11 am on the first wave. I am re applying this year. I could not attend last year due to family financial issues.
I am also a bit worried since I only have three paragraphs this time around but was accepted before. Are any incoming juniors who are applying to Questrom have an update of two paragraphs?
@college457 I am applying as a junior and have two paragraphs but I am applying to CAS not Questrom
Did the BU Admissions Office market a mid-April release date for decisions back then as well?
@college457 I am applying to Questrom as a junior and I have two paragraphs
they are up
