In my credit evaluation, it list the 5 courses I took from Fall17. I didn’t send in any syllabi yet, so they must’ve gotten this info from commonapp/transcript. Underneath that, under the heading “Transfer Credit Evaluations,” it says BU Course
Equivalent 1 and under that BU Course Equivalent 2. The numbers go under the “BU Course Equivalent” which means it represents quantity. How come there are two different columns titled “BU Course Equivalent?” Do I still need to submit my syllabi? I never got an email asking me to do so.
@r3j3ct3d1 I would recommend calling BU
Hoping the 2nd wave is tomorrow :// although I still have 3 paragraphs. Man… a 4.0 freshman year isn’t enough? :((
I still haven’t received my transfer credit evaluation, which is a huge factor in determining whether or not I will attend. Hoping to get it at least by this week… I sent it in around the end of February.
@festivalgirl hope you hear back soon! I definitely think a 4.0 is incredible, and huge props to people who maintain that GPA. However, there are tons of other factors contributing to admission decisions. Don’t be discouraged that you haven’t heard back yet though.
Since you still have the 3 paragraphs they haven’t began looking at your application yet. So don’t expect a decision before they change it to 2. That’s not bad at all though cause for example for my case, I’ve had the 2 paragraphs for 3-4 weeks now and have yet to receive a decision despite so many decisions being released throughout the last week. This likely means that they are taking their time to decide on me b/c they’re not sure. You on the other hand might get a decision very shortly after they start looking at your application.
@konjer15 Not true at all. There are people oN THIS THREAD that have gotten acceptances while having the 3p prompt. It’s just more likely if you have the 2P.
Hey guys is there a GroupMe for transfers? Accepted or waiting?
Does anyone’s houisng portal say this when trying to log in “Access Denied. Please contact BU Housing at housing@bu.edu.” I was accepted into Questrom, but have yet to accept FA or submit the $650 deposit.
@r3j3ct3d1 Yea, same. I’m still waiting on other admission decisions so I haven’t submitted my deposit yet, that’s likely why we can’t acxess housing
hey guys! is there any fb page or anything for accepted transfers?
Does anyone got decisions today?
@Miamitransfer there is. Just search “Boston University 2018 Transfer Students” there are 315 members and it’s a closed group.
Find that I am asked to submit the Midterm report. Hope they can make the decision right after they receive the midterm report. Really don’t want to wait for another month.
weird, I cant find it @pink418
Applied as Computer Science, Admitted to College of Arts & Sciences. But I didn’t see any indication saying that I am admitted to CS major, is this same for everyone else?
@sifhsn Did you get your decision today?
@pok24647 yea, I got my decision at around 6:30 pst
Does anyone know if it’s still possible to get on the early review list?
I’m trying to arrange housing for next semester at my current institution but can’t until I know if BU will accept me.
@TheBrady6 I have called them last week for adding me to early review list, but the woman in the phone told me they don’t have this kind of list, so I’m confusing now.
For those that got accepted/enrolled already: if BU says that they won’t accept credits for a course, would it make sense to just drop it? I’m in a joke of a one-credit seminar tailored for my business school, and I don’t want to have to write the ten page final!
