@stephaniecarino i have not heard back yet
However my paragraphs just changed from 3 to 2 so I’m pretty pumped @stephaniecarino
Between this thread and my applicant portal I am checking like every hour lol… definitely not healthy but the anticipation is killing me!
Can anyone verify / predict whether or not they are sending decisions out in order of when you applied, or is it totally random?
@3521jordan it’s not by when you applied. My application wasn’t final until March 5th and I got in on the first wave. There are people who applied months a month before me that are still waiting
@pink418 Weird—the applicant portal indicates the decisions are to be released on a rolling basis.
I don’t think all my application materials were received by BU until mid-March though, so I suppose I have to hope that they’re not releasing decisions on a first come, first served basis, because I’ll be waiting some time if that’s the case.
@Malcontent Rolling admissions just means that there is no single release date. It doesn’t mean that the first applications completed will be the first to receive their decisions.
I hate to be the one spreading rumors, but on a previous transfer thread for BU i saw some people saying that if you got an email about submitting syllabi that was a hint you may be getting accepted. Any insight on this?
Ugh this is taking forever
@3521jordan I got one last year and was rejected. Wouldn’t get my hopes up.
@3521jordan no. literally everyone got it at the same time this year if you applied before a certain date. a lot of us on this thread got it the same day lol
@TheBrady6 @msport thanks for the info. I think it’s time to stop overthinking and over analyzing this before I go insane lol
Just got in. Portal changed from 3p to 2p around 2 pm, just got accepted around 9 pm
@vdoan17 Congrats! You’re one of those people that they immediately accepted without second thought. My case is different than that. I’ve had the 2p for almost a month now I believe and no answer back. I’ve heard there are a few other people in this situation too and it probably means that they’re just waiting till the end cause they’re unsure.
The portal is down for me…
@konjer15 thank you! I think me being part of the guaranteed transfer admission program has to do it. Hope you get in, good luck!
Does anyone know when the last of the transfer decisions usually come out? My portal has been three paragraphs after submitting the additional requested midterm report for about two weeks now. Although I’m still holding onto the hope of being accepted, I’m starting to think I’m going to be rejected. I want to finalize plans for my study abroad program this summer though.
@TomSrOfBoston Oh. Huh. Thanks. All this time I’ve been so misinformed. Seems like a fewof the schools I’ve applied to have rolling admissions then, despite the fact that most of them claim to only offer “regular” decisions.
my portal has been three paragraphs since I applied 2/26. however, my admissions counselor emailed me yesterday asking me questions about my essays
@stephaniecarino you were assigned an admissions counselor ? Where did you see / how did you get assigned one? I was unaware we were assigned specific counselors as transfer applicants.
@stelliferous I wouldn’t get too discouraged, if it’s anyrhing like last year, decisions will still be coming out for a while. Stay optimistic!
@3521jordan Aww, thanks for the encouragement!
