Official Boston University Fall 2013 Transfer Thread

<p>It’s almost June. I guess you guys have made your decision whether going to BU or not.
For those who will come in this fall , I think we should talk or connect more …
It is said that transfers are not easily fitting in the new environment. I am a little nervous about the new school, what if I can’t make any friends?
:(</p>

<p>Yeah u heard that too about how it takes time for generally all transfers to find a new niche in the new environment. And I pretty much decided to go to BU like 85%. Yeah we should connect more.</p>

<p>For sure. I already paid my deposit and made my email account and what not. I’m 99% sure I’m going to BU just waiting on USC though which will tell me their decision June 1st. </p>

<p>Everyone who is going for sure should exchange emails/phones/facebooks maybe if we don’t want to be friendless. There was a transfer facebook somewhere around here I can’t find.</p>

<p>Oh and since most of you seem to be international, you’re lucky your orientation is the one in august. I have to to go the one in July and spend a lot more money for plane tickets.</p>

<p>I’ve checked the last 2 year’s BU transfer post
and some people got their acceptance June.
We still have hope!</p>

<p>@marmun
I talked to someone in the admissions office a few days ago, and he said the reply date is usually related to how close you applied to the deadline. So someone like me who applied very close to the deadline, should hear back in June.
Don’t worry, its coming up fast!</p>

<p>@Dargor13 @Aimeewnts2trnsfr @marmun
Good luck!! Looking forward to hearing your good news!!</p>

<p>Yeah best of luck guys! And am sure they don’t work don’t like letting the acceptances know early and rejects know last. Universities tend to go through transfer applications on a rolling basis going reviewing only a hand full at a time. So each applicant will have the same chances is admission regardless of which batch it is reviewed on. So those of you who are still waiting have as much chance of getting in as any of us when our application was reviewed.
Again good luck</p>

<p>I had my meeting with an advisor today about classes. Pretty excited! :smiley: I hope to see you all at BU yeah? We’ll all chill (also literally when it gets cold haha).</p>

<p>Just declined my offer. Hope someone gets my spot. Good luck guys!</p>

<p>:O NYU for you then? Well best of luck wherever you go! I thought you were set on BU?</p>

<p>@Bosbr100, good luck!</p>

<p>they have just updated my account again,
it is a little bit too late, but they now require me to send them my national exam results back in the days when I was in secondary school in Hong Kong. </p>

<p>I thought it is not required for transfer students, but now they ask me for that.
My application has been completed more than 1 month, I hope this is a good sign

  • I have been studying in a California CC for 2 years.</p>

<p>@Aimeewnts2trnsfr</p>

<p>I applied the day it was due and I got in like May 16. I think some decision notices are random, but at other times they accept people early and wait for people to deny/accept on a rolling basis. Hope I helped and good luck!</p>

<p>Dargor13, thanks!</p>

<p>that1guyy, yes, NYU! I thought I was going to BU as well… But for my future career, I realized that NYC will offer more internship, job opportunities, and possible networks. And some of my classes did not transfer to BU, as they did to NYU… so I balanced everything to make this decision!</p>

<p>Good luck everyone! Which school are you guys going?</p>

<p>@626transfer
Oh okay. I can’t handle the wait anymore, i check my email and the applicant link about every hour! so I’m hoping ill catch your luck and maybe get word back soon? Unlikely but here’s hoping!</p>

<p>Oh god I got into USC!!! If I got as good financial aid as BU I might end up there instead!!! OMG</p>

<p>Hey that1guyy,</p>

<p>I cannot stress more on how similar our stats are. I would really like to get in touch with you via e-mail, so I could get some good advice. I hope you could help me out. Thanks.</p>

<p>@CCtransfer for sure. Send me a pm. </p>

<p>But, I’m just curious here, what kind of advice are you looking for? You already applied right so at this point its up to admissions to decide right?</p>

<p>I’m applying for fall of 2014. I’m doing early preparations you know :).</p>
