*****Official Boston College EA Class of 2018 Thread****

<p>@heycall123 it should have already</p>

<p>Mine just changed (I’m in Nevada) and it says I can submit a deposit so I think that means I’m in!!!</p>

<p>So they are still changing? Do you think this means mine could still change?? Is there still hope?! :/</p>

<p>where in the midwest do you live?</p>

<p>We are in bay area CA. Just received acceptance letter in mail. Portal did change this morning. yay !!</p>

<p>Anyone received their letter in MN???</p>

<p>I just had my daughter check her agora portal. It has changed. It shows three choices 1. To enroll 2. To withdraw admission 3. To postpone enrollment . Each choice has its own link. Best of luck!</p>

<p>This method of notification is so cruel. Looks like I didn’t get in.</p>

<p>@ewtoast make sure you click on " applicant status" . The change was on that screen</p>

<p>Sorry if I wasn’t clear on that .</p>

<p>i live in south florida and have not received an email or an agora change. i do know of someone who lives near me and received the package. do you think there’s still time?</p>

<p>bay area and received my letter today. Deferred. I’m heartbroken, 3rd deferral in a week. Now I just have to wait until regular decision, definitely bummed.</p>

<p>I think that everyone who has been accepted would have had their portal change by now.</p>

<p>has anyone gotten in without a portal change?</p>

<p>I just want my admission decision so I can know and don’t have to keep contemplating…</p>

<p>Did anyone not get a portal change who’s pretty sure they’ll get in but hasn’t heard anything yet? Like my chances are slim so it’s one thing if I’m denied and that’s why it’s not changing but I’m just wondering if for some reason there will be another wave of agora changes?</p>
