Official BU Class of 2018 Regular Decision Thread

<p>Guys, Twitter indicates that a lot of people got called yesterday and were told that they got accepted. If we didn’t get this call, are we rejected?</p>

<p>It may be that the Admission Counselor for the region where people were accepted was proactive and called the candidates. I know something like this happened to us for UMD. </p>

<p>The wait is killing me :(</p>

<p>2hours, right? </p>

<p>How long do you guys think the rolling release of decisions will be?</p>

<p>Do you think it might stretch from 9AM EDT to something like 4-7PM EDT or will it only last an hour or two at worst?</p>

<p>@IBDiplomaVictim, same… I didn’t sleep at all…</p>

<p>@IBDiplomaVictim Have you checked the page’s HTML and JavaScript? I’d do it myself but my computer is down :frowning: (you can probably tell I’m kinda impatient lol)</p>

<p>@IBDiplomaVictim
they could also be the one’s who are receiving scholarships! There are thousands of people after all who will be accepted…oh gosh…but I do have greater doubts now…</p>

<p>@Skatergirl175</p>

<p>Yes, I have. Numerous times. Every week since early March.</p>

<p>They haven’t implemented anything on there yet. There is, however, an object of a loading bar as a resource for the page, but it is not implemented in either the homepage of the Applicant Link or the Application Status page.</p>

<p>I have a feeling that the decision page is on a different URL, and this URL’s link is not present on the Applicant Link Homepage. They might initiate an automatic redirect to the URL where our decisions are once they are available.</p>

<p>You can (i’ve done this before to see products from companies before they’re released and see decisions early) try to GUESS the URL itself at this point but that seems to be the only way.</p>

<p>For example, the current application status URL is <a href=“System Error”>https://www.bu.edu/link/bin/uiscgi_application_credential_status.pl&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>But that is a credential status. I’m sure there is a variation of that end of the URL where the credential is swapped out for something like admission/admissions/decision. I’ve tried my luck guessing different combinations, but to no avail. If it is in a different extension (something other than .pl) then we may in fact be S.O.L.</p>

<p>I applied for Finance not Computer Science, though!</p>

<p>I’ll keep you guys updated if I do find anything.</p>

<p>Hi all! Applicant from Rhode Island, got rejected from Northeastern so I’m really scared about BU. Applied as an engineer, 3.8 UW, 4.57/5 W, 27 ACT. Rhode Island All State rehearsals today 9-5 so I will be really anxious sitting there today, checking during breaks. Good luck everyone!!!</p>

<p>ALSO, does anyone know what time they will release?</p>

<p>I GOT IN</p>

<p>Did you just receive your email???</p>

<p>Mine was on the applicant link I did not get an email:

You win some you lose some</p>

<p>same here im going to a competition today so i will be anxious the whole time</p>

<p>No email, on the portal! I think I was the first to see it!</p>

<p>Didn’t receive an email either.

Not even surprised after receiving my Northeastern rejection this week, lol.</p>

<p>I GOT IN WITH 13K GIFT AID PER YEAR!! </p>

<p>It’s on the applicant link. I got rejected.</p>

<p>ACCEPTED! Thank you so much!!!</p>

<p>Accepted! This totally made up for my Northeastern rejection. Staying up till 2 am was definitely worth it.</p>
