Boston University Transfers Fall 2018

I recently got accepted to the Questrom school of business. You guys know where they post financial aid info?

@“FutureIbanker/hfmanager” where it says financial assistance decsision. Should be right under Admission Decision.

Hey guys! I applied in late February and I still haven’t gotten my admission decision. I don’t know if it’s because I had to send in a waiver for my noncustodial parent financial aid form or what? Would they still give me an admission decision if the financial aid portion of my application isn’t complete but my admission section is???

@n0irnek0 I’m pretty sure sending in FA late will affect how much FA you will receive and not your decision. Had a friend who was accepted into Emory RD and did not send in FA till accepted.

does anyone know when all decisions will be out? this is getting ridiculous man

@msport probably may 1

@stephaniecarino I sure hope so! I called to be put on a waiting list for May 1st, but the person on the phone said it wasn’t guaranteed I’d receive a decision by then.

@fromma Is the 2p version you’ve had on your portal the one that has 2 par and then a line that says “Please verify your address (including e-mail address) by clicking Applicant Address”? I’ve had that version for a month too and nothing yet. Others here have told me that the actual 2p one that leads to a decision very soon is not the one that I have. Did you have the version I’m describing?

@msport

When I was also waiting for a decision, I also called BU last week to ask about when all decisions would be out. The person on the phone was saying that all the decisions would be out by May 1st. I am not sure, but that’s what I heard that time!

I hope they come out by May 1st. Even the schools. I applied to at the beginning of April are supposed to have their stuff out by May 1st so idk what’s taking BU so long I just want to know :,(

Mine changed to two paragraphs this morning. How long does it take to get the official decision after that? Could it be today?

@konjer15 Here’s what my 2P looks like:

@cocolipp it will probably be tonight

@fromma hey that’s the one I have! Glad I finally found someone with that version. You said that you received a decision after having this right? It didn’t change to another version for a few hours before the decision like it works with the other version?

@konjer15

Yes, to make things clear, that’s what my 2P was even “right before” getting the decision. Hasn’t changed to another 2P version. I am really sure about this because I even checked the portal an hour before receiving the decision.

Hey has anyone else received a Pell grant in their FA offer?

@cocolipp Mine changed to look like that this morning as well. I haven’t heard anything though and I doubt I’d hear today since it’s already after 5 on the East Coast :frowning:

people have gotten decisions at like 11pm with BU. if you’re at 2p your decision is coming

@ConcreteJungle1 i did!

I was rejected…
