Fall 2017

Let’s not be discouraged. Today might be the day. If not today, it has to be next week. @bling0202 did you apply to others schools? Is BU your first choice?

Be patient. If today is not the day for you, you will likely be waiting until the new year. This is normal. Very annoying, but normal.

@Paidela I also applied stony. hopefully we can get the acceptance today. So nervous now.

@STEM2017 yeah…I don’t think they will still keep working next week. Maybe I need to wait for more than 10 days.

I get accepted today, but how do you know that you also get accepted to the honors

???

Woo!

Got accepted!
87.8 GPA
28 Act

@Sesameopen congratulations! What time did u get the acceptance?

I still got nothing. waiting is torture. :frowning:

@bling0202 Thanks! 3:18 they sent email and i literally checked an hour before, so they send the email as they release.

@Smartisan5 In the acceptance letter they posted in my admissions portal there’s a line right after they told me I was in UB Class of 2021 that goes “I am especially pleased to notify you that you have been selected for admissions into our Honors College.”

I’m getting so excited for next year as I hear about more and more acceptances! Congrats to all the people who have been accepted and good luck to those still waiting! :slight_smile:

Got in! Haven’t gotten the official letter in the mail yet but I got an email saying that there were changed to my status and I opened my account and there was my acceptance letter! Got in for pharmacology and toxicology. Whoa they accepted me so fast tho. Got in yesterday and only applied December 15th. Hopefully they gave me money or that I got into the honors college but I probs can’t go cause its kinda far. Nice surprise just in time for Christmas tho!

Tons of extracurriculars and around 1000 hours in volunteering and a pretty dope essay

For you guys who haven’t heard back yet, I’m sure you will get in!!! Be optimistic!

My son got in UB Honors with Provost Scholarship. Sooooo proud of him.

He applied on 12/14, got acceptance email on 12/19, got email for Provost scholarship yesterday 12/23 and finally received the acceptance letter in post today 12/24.

Hello all.
Are they working on applications this week?
Shouldn’t early decision get the answers by 1/1?
I hope the delay does not mean…
I thought that a 25 act, 93 gpa, tons of volunteer work and strong letters would trigger an early decision from them since the app was ED sent November 10th. :frowning:

@Smartisan5 Did you hear about honors from UB yet? My daughter got accepted on Dec 23rd but did not hear anything about honors so I called them today. They had to transfer my call to 3 different department and found out that they never reviewed her application for honors because they have marked her app as she did not apply to honors. They are re-sending her application to the admission office to review for honors and we were told that we should hear from them by mid January.

I called them about early decision and they said that we should hear in a week or two.
So it does match the 1/15 date. But the fact that so many people from regular decision already got accepted, makes it interesting.

She got in. Got an email today.
Two more schools to go…
Best of luck to all.

@Paidela …Great news! Still waiting here!

Since they have very similar stats is just a matter of time for you guys. I bet you guys will hear it by next Friday.
