Tom, do you know when BU normally releases ED1 data? Do they wait for completion of the ED2 cycle?
Thatâs terrible. Is it the first time theyâve been asked? Surely not! Youâd think guidance would have seen it all. They should know ED wants grades before the deadline. Itâs inept.
Reject outright⊠Not even a deferment 
Funny weâve had no acceptances yet. Maybe they donât want to gloat 
. My Dâs friend got in for Art though so sheâs bummed.
BU wants 1st quarter grades for ED. Midyear grades are required afterwards.

Anyone have a clue how we figure out how many ED deferrals actually get in? National average appears to be 15%. Wondering if BU is higherâŠ

If you were deferred is there anything they should do now, like write or ask for an interview?
BU doesnât do interviews. You should send in a LOCI (Letter of Continued interest).
Hi TomSrOfBostonâŠI always click on your posts because you seem to know a lot. Do you, by chance, have any information about how many ED deferrals gets acceptances in regular decision? I know BU has a low yield rate so wondering if this impacts the otherwise abysmal 15% ED-deferred-to-RD national average. Thanks for any info or perspective you can offerâŠ
I have not seen any stats regarding ED deferred RD accepted. My guess is that there is a better than average chance because BU knows that the student has a real interest in actually attending.
does anyone know when ED2 decisions will be released?
Did some digging and found that ED2 decisions were released last year on February 8th on a Monday at ~6 PM. So Iâm not sure if that means theyâll come on a Monday again like the 7th or on the 8th.
