to clarify, does ā€œapplying for aidā€ mean directly to the school, or indirectly through the FAFSA and the CSS profile

Hello!! I applied to the SOM and hope to major in performance!

I believe that itā€™s to the school so that theyll actually consider your FAFSA and CSS profile Iā€™m not sure though

I did CAS neuroscience :slight_smile:

I bet all of yā€™all are incredibly smart and talented. None of us having anything to worry about, weā€™ll get in. And even if you donā€™t, Iā€™m pretty sure your application gets put in the pool for RD, so you still have a shot!!

CAS but I applied to an intercollegiate major with Sargent: Linguistics & Speech, Language, and Hearing sciences!

I applied to Questrom for an independent concentration, hoping to take classes on a few things (economics, public policy, etc.), Iā€™m not sure what my major will be yet though.

True. And even if it goes to RD, the fact that one had applied ED boosts the ā€œdemonstrated interestā€ category of the selection criteria when they look at it again.

Same!!!

Do you guys know if Sargent is really hard to get into? I applied to sargent and Iā€™m really worried and nervous. also I never had a financial decision listed so Iā€™m pretty sure Iā€™ve been rejected :frowning:

have a feeling they recieved a decrease in number of early decision 1 applicants bc they pushed the RD and ED2 DEADLINES back. I know several schools who had reported lower numbers then previous years have been doing this. This could mean that the odds r tipped slightly in ED1 applicantsā€™ favor. Also the fact that BU already has a low yield rate could mean they will accept applicants from the bottom of the threshold. WE got this yā€™all!!

All you can do at this point is wait, and Iā€™m sure thereā€™s no point in stressing (although itā€™s so much easier said than done) just try to have hope and reasonably prepare yourself for the worst. I hope you get in, I know Sargent is rigorous but Iā€™m not sure how hard it is to get in.

Oh my gosh really?? Thatā€™s so cool!! I hope both of us get in, I wish the best of luck to you!!!

Does any one know for those who did see the aid offer, do you think they most likely got in?

I saw an aid offer. It had my name, my BU ID number, and all the details that are included in financial aid offers. It came from BU, so yes I would say it was real. I definitely donā€™t think I was supposed to see it yet, but I would say I got in. I donā€™t see why there would even be an aid offer available if I wasnā€™t accepted. But again, nothing is confirmed.

does anyone know if people actually get rejected in ED 1? I heard a rumor that no one gets rejected and you either get deferred or accepted, but idk.

The deadlines were moved back 3 days. I wouldnā€™t read too much into that.
