BU Early Decision for Fall 2022 Admission

BU doesn’t have EA

can we hear the call too?

doesn’t let me add the video but this is what they said
girl calling in: “Hi I was just wondering if you know when your early decision application results will come out”
person in admissions: “That’s gonna be on the 15th if this month”
g: “is it for sure the 15th or could they come out earlier?”
a: “they’re not gonna come out earlier but it might be true that some get a little delayed but it should be all around the 15th”
end

Does BU defer you to the general pool in all cases or are some people denied outright? Also, will you only be offered CGS after going through being deferred first?

Only 5% of applicants in ED get rejected. Way more likely to be deferred than rejected.

How do you know?

does anyone think its gonna be today

I heard about it in a really long interview with the BU director of admissions a little while back. He said that in terms of Early Decision, most students do not get rejected. Only 5% get rejected because they want to give people a second opportunity to be considered. While the chances of getting accepted are still low, it’s higher than a flat out rejection.

No they haven’t sent out an email saying that we should expect them. But the admissions office only opened like 30 minutes ago so I shouldn’t speak too soon. Although, most schools notify students 1-2 days in advanced of ED decisions coming out.

ohh cool but does bu usually send out emails to notify before they release the decisions?

northeastern and Boston College didnt send out emails and I believe BU didnt send out emails last year bc no one knew when they were going to come out for sure

I heard that as well, BU does not send emails prior to release. It likely will be out today.

My school doesn’t send first marking grades, only mid-year. Will this affect my decision?

I think you need that to be considered

but again dont stress I think they received it because mine was like that too until I called and they said they received it, its just processing in their system
