First-Timers: The Stressed Parents Thread

<p>kansas city: What/where is the "BU decision thread"?</p>

<p>I swear I am having chest pain from the stress of this whole process. If I could be reborn as anything, I think I would like to be Amish, because as far as I can tell, the Amish don't do MT.</p>

<p>Skwidjymom, laughing really hard! OH my thank you. That is so true. I feel that way about my D and also my S who is a college golfer. Nothing harder than the 2 routes they have taken. I bet the Amish don't play golf either. And then I have the oldest S who actually wants to live in an Amish community...no doubt why. :0</p>

<p>letsfigure it out, look for the BU thread under Arts majors. My D is also waiting to hear from Emerson and BU. Acting for both. She thinks it will be regular mail but I really think BU does online, don't you? Or both?</p>

<p>My son is waiting on BU and Emerson also (and Otterbein) all for acting. I think Emerson says they will post online 3 days after mail sent out. Boston doesn't say, but I think I read on the BU thread that it does post online or that you get an email. I'm getting them all confused in my head! I do know that Boston had record number of applicants and they are saying it will be a little later this year (officially told me early to mid April....gahhhhh!!). I hope it turns out to be earlier though. Good luck to ya'll.</p>

<p>beachmom24, Good luck to you also. I see you have several acceptances also. Congrats on those. My D has had one acceptance so far, from Syracuse, and no rejections. She only did 5 auditions....also waiting on NYU and USC. She wasn't so sure about BU but loved Emerson, Syracuse and NYU. Hopefully she will get choices. But she loved Syracuse, she has been wearing the sweatpants and sweatshirt we bought all winter, and she fell in love with the castle, the campus, the dome....it was a gorgeous fall day so who wouldn't? When she did her audition in January, it was sunny and cold but no snow (and it was snowing in Atlanta that weekend! HA). It was her first audition and she thought it went great....apparently so. :) Does you son have a favorite? You can pm me if you want</p>
