<p>We got a call Thursday saying my DS was removed from the waitlist and they would be happy to take my $650 deposit. We go the official letter today. Anyone else get similar news?</p>
<p>Congratulations!</p>
<p>That is fantastic. I think the last few years only between 0 and about 25 kids were offered spots off the waitlist.</p>
<p>Great news! I'm assuming BU was his top choice because your user name is "redsoxfan."</p>
<p>I still on the waitlist, but my hopes aren't that high. Even if I get accepted I would still need a good amount of financial aid which porbably won't happen any ways.</p>
<p>i got a message today from admissions that it said that they needed to speak to me about the waitlist and to call back immediately. i called but the office was closed. does everyone on the waitlist get this call that i missed?</p>
<p>I GOT OFF THE WAITLIST!! i called back and they said that they can admit me. i dont know if i should go there over wisconsin...</p>
<p>I got off the waitlist too, now all i need to do is rob a bank to bay four the 4years at BU</p>
<p>I also got off the waitlist. Never got a call though, just got an email and the offical admission letter came in yesterday. I'm pretty sure I'm going to BU.</p>
<p>I called them since I am also waitlisted. The woman said they are taking a good deal of applicants off the waitlist this year and that they have yet to finish reviewing all the waitlisted appliacants, so to expect many more shortly.</p>
<p>I also got off the waitlist today,.....</p>
<p>Got a phone call....</p>
<p>Did not get any mail yet.....</p>
<p>It was a good surprise/</p>
<p>BUT!!! Not sure if I can pay.....</p>
<p>Still undecided between CUNY Honors and BU - - ; ;</p>
<p>For those of you that got off the waitlist, did they mention financial aid yet? I know the letter said we'd receive very little since the money has already been given out.</p>
<p>I heard they are offering more waitlist spots this year, it was practically zero the last few, because they had to be very careful not to "over book" in regular admissions since the last couple of years about 50 kids had to live at the Commonwealth or Hyatt for the first couple of months. I wish I was one since they had maid service and great bathrooms.</p>
<p>May I ask which BU College and what your stats are? I wonder if they start with high to low, by location/state, or if its more random.</p>
<p>I wonder if the kid that was on here about a month ago got off the waitlist since he had ridiculous stats and everyone was shocked he didn't get in.</p>
