Boston University (2022-2023)

[smoky tiger]

How abt we put our emails down and share them to each other?

[mint root]

[weary helm]

[smoky tiger]

If u want to ofc i don’t mind

I’ll put my email down for anyone who wants to share

[weary helm]

school email? or dont matter?

[open relic]

careful dont doxx

and go to dms

instead of sharing it here

[weary helm]

true yeah thats better

[smoky tiger]

oh ya shit lol

sorry

[mint root]

yea i was gonna say dms

[wintry knoll]

its considered

[smoky tiger]

Shared w u both

wait I meant I shared my email lol

[weary helm]

okay so who can i send it to?

[smoky tiger]

I’ll take a look if u want

No pressure tho

[iron void]

(international) kid from my school w 4 Bs got in ED

[weary helm]

i have like 4-5 Bs throughout my HS career so this makes me feel a little better

[kind cosmos]

Wdym? Why does that make a difference

[mint root]

it won’t because BU is need-blind for domestic students

[weary helm]

wait i have a question

so lets say I get a full ride scholarship, does that not improve my chances bc BU is need-blind?

[mint root]

it won’t

scholarships do affect financial aid though

[junior hawk]

i literally had a c on mine and i got in ed i think they dont pay much attention to it

i watch those taking a walk in boston in vids when im about to sleep and they are so 💗

usually when the portal is down that means they are about to update decisions

[mint root]

my friend who got in ed last year said it drops at like 6pm ET and the portal is down a couple hours/days prior

[junior hawk]

im also pretty sure that some minority students get like phone calls a day before, i did and i thought it was someone pranking me but it was real

[burnt zephyr]

OMGGGG

i have hopes fr

[mint root]

meee who’s a URM🤩🤠

[junior hawk]

yes for sure i promise the classes you take and essays matter so much more than grades like i had that c on my mid year and one from sophomore year on my transcript, as long as u show growth 💗

[junior hawk]

w

[burnt zephyr]

🥹🥹🥹

i’ve only taken like 8 ap’s and a couple of honors classes

[mint root]

i’ve taken 5 aps, 1 DE, rest are honors

[junior hawk]

thats a good amount, shows rigor

[mint root]

i wish i took more aps but they’re lowkey a scam

[junior hawk]

nah fr ive given college board like over $1000 for some silly test

the education system is just masked evil capitalism

[mint root]

they took like $500+ from ap tests alone

[digital iron]

They do!

[mint root]

and we have to take the ap exams or they remove you from the class which is dumb as hell

[junior hawk]

its such a cute thing i want to send out those phone calls when im an upperclassmen

[junior hawk]

this is bonkers

[digital iron]

Frrrr

[mint root]

they didn’t announce it or anything my gov teacher told me that i have to register for the ap exam otherwise i’ll have to withdraw from his class or it shows up as a W

and too much explaining to colleges that my withdraw from ap gov was not because i didn’t do well or was because i don’t want to take a damn ap test

[smoky tiger]

i Hope BU decides b4 the 15th

[mint root]

they usually drop like a week before

[smoky tiger]

2 weeks 🙏

[mint root]

more like 2 and a half but still🙏🙏

[smoky tiger]

we’ll take it 😭

[burnt zephyr]

i still need my mid report in

i hope my gpa went up despite i got 2 b’s

[mint root]

my quarter grades r mid

but i don’t think my semester grades will reach BU in time for ed2 tho which will help my gpa

[digital iron]

WWW

rn I have like a 101.55 weighted

My UW stayed the same at 3.9

[weary helm]

My unweight is like a 3.89 but hopefully it’ll be like a 3.9

[mint root]

my unweighted will hopefully a 3.71

[wintry knoll]

👍🏻

cant yall see you uw gpa?

[weary helm]

Well shit I’m going to end up with two B this semester shit shit

I might just cry rn

[mint root]

nah i changed schools

[burnt zephyr]

yeah my mid report might not get to them until later next week

[mint root]

i need to ask my counselor when my mid-year gets sent

if i recall it’s sometime in early february

[burnt zephyr]

when does ED2 come out

like around the 8th of feb?

[mint root]

yea around feb 8

[smoky tiger]

My school does it weird where they add bonus for having an A+ so I just calculated it online on a 4.0 scale and got 3.94 UW and 4.34 W

[mint root]

same here

an A+ is a 4.3

[smoky tiger]

ya it’s so weird

[mint root]

time to call admissions because my ED agreement is missing😍😍

[smoky tiger]

I mean schools calculate it themselves so hopefully they see

[smoky tiger]

Good luck!

[mint root]

my mid year report gets sent feb 3 aka in 2 weeks

for those who did ed did you sign the agreement via commonapp

[smoky tiger]

common app for me

[mint root]

yea i did the same but the lady i talked to told me that the ed agreement is a pdf you sign

now im on hold again as she’s looking into it for me

she hung up!

[digital iron]

Yeah

[mint root]

just finished with the admissions office and it’s a glitch on their end so i’m all set bless up

[smoky tiger]

Yay that’s good

[mint root]

this random counselor had to call them for me because when i called i got through to someone and they put me on hold and hung up

[burnt zephyr]

yes after i submitted my app

took a couple days to show up on my portal

[mint root]

it’s all good it was a glitch on the their end

[smoky tiger]

Any astrology signs for BU? 😭😭

[mint root]

none as far as i know

time to scour college confidential

[burnt zephyr]

guys

does boston fly u out if u get in

[mint root]

i don’t think they do

[burnt zephyr]

: (

USC does omg

[azure bloom]

My boy you would have to fly at the start of the school year, for thanksgiving, easter, christmas, and at the end of the school year

If u need to fly to a college it’s not a great choice imo

[mint root]

depends on where you’re flying from

rn i live 40 minutes from BU but after my first year i’m gonna have to fly there or drive like 7ish hours

[smoky tiger]

I’m a 6 hour drive away I think

[digital iron]

There were certain flyins schools had during the beginning of the year like ik bapson and tufts had them and it boost your admission rate + an extended ED deadline

[warped glen]

pls

i have all a's and got my first c as a 79 in ap chem in seniior year

our teacher fails everyone

kids get 5s ona p chem with 70s as year averages

idfk why i took it and im j hoping that mid years wont hurt me too much, but it probably will cuz loest grade throughout hs during senior year 😭 😭 stg its a teacher issue, i have like 17 aps so yay course rigor but like i already had a few scattered b's, adding this one just is so bad shouldve dropped the class

[mint root]

this is my first semester getting all a’s bc i have a bunch of b’s throughout hs🤡

[sudden ether]

i got a B in gym and a B in math

the best and worst subjects you can get a B on as a stem applicant

[mint root]

i have a C+ rn in gov bc i got a 40% a quiz

but it’s gonna go back up to an A

[sudden ether]

yall have quizzes that count towards your gpa??

[mint root]

yup

[sudden ether]

our gpa is just average of 3 tests

[mint root]

everything here counts towards gpa

[sudden ether]

plus some arbitrary points that your teacher gives you based on vibes

[mint root]

depends on the teacher tho

for psych tests are worth 70%, quizzes are worth 30% and there’s no homework grade

[weary helm]

Does anyone here know people applying as an international relations major for BU?

I’m applying for IR but I heard that it’s a unpopular major at BU

[mint root]

my tour guide was an IR major

[undone summit]

My school does standard based grading for regular and honors classes and do traditional grading for ap classes 💀

[mint root]

it’s actually a pretty strong non-dc program but yea not as popular as say engineering or biz

[mint root]

info sessions, touring (in person or virtual)

but it’s mainly the why bu essay

[burnt zephyr]

i mentioned one of the info sessions i attended in my why us essay 🙏

it was the a diversity one and it had like 120 ppl on it, it was so fun

[mint root]

wait i also went to a diversity one

[burnt zephyr]

the mosaic ?

[mint root]

yea

[burnt zephyr]

omggg

was that the only one they did

[mint root]

yea i think so

it was on a random saturday and there were 3 current students and one of the directors of admission

[burnt zephyr]

mine was like in october i think

[mint root]

yea mine too

[burnt zephyr]

omg then it was definitely only 1 they did.

[mint root]

mhm we prob went to the same one

2.5 weeks until i become a terrier (real)

[smoky tiger]

Praying

[weary helm]

I’m manifesting for you 😭

[mint root]

there no way i’m getting into neu boston campus and my higher reaches r barnard and penn💀

[junior hawk]

i rather spend money flying then spend another year in texas

[azure bloom]

wdym

[burnt zephyr]

all the way around me

[azure bloom]

also guys I still havent gotten my midyear yet is that okay

[mint root]

neu ea has a 6% acceptance rate and the rest of my bigger reaches r ivies🤩

[azure bloom]

wtf

thats cap

[mint root]

ur fine many schools r flexible on that

[burnt zephyr]

my teacher hasn’t sent my rec & BU asks for 2…

i literally emailed him about it like

[mint root]

you need one teacher and one counselor

[azure bloom]

okay damn

I thought I was behind

[mint root]

does it say it’s missing in ur portal?

that was due like 3 weeks ago he needs to finish that

[digital iron]

💀

[digital iron]

There no way

It’s like 20% I thought

[mint root]

the 6% figure is only neu bos

idk what the percentage for all neu admirs but your finaid doesn’t apply to nu in/bound from what i’ve been told so

[burnt zephyr]

i need to check

i didn’t know texas was considered southwest

[mint root]

when my ed agreement was “missing” they send me this

[burnt zephyr]

same lol

okay i was panicking at first but u only need 1

[mint root]

when did you ask ur other teacher for ur rec letter

[burnt zephyr]

october & in january again

[mint root]

atp they should’ve just told you they couldn’t write it in time

one of my teachers i asked for mine in march and she submitted it the DAY my ea school was due meanwhile i asked my calc teacher for one in mid september and she did it in like 2 weeks

[burnt zephyr]

Should I just ask another teacher atp

this is stressful

[mint root]

could someone else even write you a rec that quickly

[burnt zephyr]

yeah my english teacher did it in like 2-3 days lol

he’s awesome for that

[mint root]

hmm then u should be good you only need 1

unless you want another teacher asides ur english teacher

[digital iron]

Usually having a teacher that caters towards your major is good

I had like 3 Rec in total I think one from my CS teacher, another from my AP Chinese teacher then my college counselor

[mint root]

i have calc, apush teacher and counselor

[burnt zephyr]

mhmmm i should ask my bio teacher then

she’ll def make one within 3-5 days

[digital iron]

If she will then there is no harm in asking

[mint root]

yea email her like now

[wintry knoll]

do yall think i can add a third teacher lor to my Application

could i just email them and ask

[mint root]

they only accept 2 teacher ones

[wintry knoll]

yeh but i asked notre dame is they can take an additional one

they said i can let the teacher email it to them

idk if BU can tho

imma send an email to check

[mint root]

like i tried to add my third teacher in commonapp and it would let me

BU admissions takes forever to reply to emails

best bet is calling

[wintry knoll]

you have to let the teacher send it straight to their admission email

with your name and email

[mint root]

i don’t think lors add that much more to my app

also they might even read the third teacher LOR bc they get like 80k apps in total

[wintry knoll]

yeh i think ut would probably do more negative impact on my apps

im prolly not gonna do it then

[burnt zephyr]

is the ED2 pool bigger than ED1? 😭

[mint root]

i don’t think it’s that much bigger but who knows

i did the math here

[burnt zephyr]

ed2 est 😕

[mint root]

the 2023 numbers are only estimates tho

[burnt zephyr]

i saw somewhere that like 3k students ED1

[mint root]

yea that’s true

[burnt zephyr]

i think it will come out on february 7th

that’s my prediction

[mint root]

i based my 2023 ed2 and total numbers on the increase of ed apps from 2021 to 2022

[mint root]

that’s mine too

[smoky tiger]

ah fuck I knew I should’ve ED1d

[mint root]

same 🤩

[smoky tiger]

So now I’m fucked

[mint root]

i added fall 2019 and 2020 (back when test scores are required)

[smoky tiger]

Fuck

ah shit

so they only take the best for Ed 2

Wonderful

Guess I’m not going 😀

I was so hopeful too

[mint root]

it depends on how many ppl apply ed2

[burnt zephyr]

you never know

[mint root]

nyu/northeastern are def seeing record numbers of ppl applying there

[smoky tiger]

It’s overrrr r

[burnt zephyr]

i wonder how much applied EA for neu tho

i feel like that ED2 acceptance number should be a lil more

[mint root]

the 2023 ed2/total numbers i did are only pure estimates based on how many more applied ed in 21-22 cycle than 20-21

[burnt zephyr]

for the est

is this BU first year doing ED2

[mint root]

bu only accepts like 40% or so ed

[mint root]

nah they had ed2 for a while

[burnt zephyr]

okay then that makes sense

[mint root]

they used to accept a lot more ed

[smoky tiger]

Why r they so selective for ED 2 now wtf

I’m preparing to have my dreams crushed now

[mint root]

total ed acceptance rate is in the 30s with the exception of last year where it was ~25%

[burnt zephyr]

isn’t there more applicants this year ?

[mint root]

but the general acceptance rate is like 14% now

yea fs for bu but not as much as northeastern

[burnt zephyr]

demonstrated interests is so hard for NEU🙁

[mint root]

for reference bu and neu has ~75k apps in 2021 meanwhile in 2022 bu had ~81k apps and neu had 91k apps

[burnt zephyr]

& also where’d u get deferred from ?

[mint root]

gtown

[burnt zephyr]

it keeps going upppp🥺🥺

[mint root]

what i think is gonna happen is neu reaches 100k apps (they already have 60k from ed1/ea)

lots of ppl took gap years in 20-21 tho

[burnt zephyr]

60K?????

[mint root]

yup

[burnt zephyr]

my personal essay is NOT gonna save me

they should’ve had a supp ngl

[mint root]

ed1 for neu is like ~3k and i assume ed2 is around the same or lower

yea fs

[burnt zephyr]

i was gonna ed 1 but i didn’t feel prepared

[mint root]

same

[burnt zephyr]

yeah my supp is okay

some girl who got into bu & yale helped me edit it

thankfully

[mint root]

my friend who got into bu ed2 last year helped me edit my supp

he thinks my supp is good and his is fucking amazing so🤠

[burnt zephyr]

lolll i bet it is !

[digital iron]

It’s because after this that test optional getting cut off or at least for most schools idk if nyu or neu will keep if they do it will prob have a lower acceptance than test scores

[mint root]

nyu i believe is reporting 100k apps

[burnt zephyr]

wait i don’t understand the whole schools deferring to lower acceptance rates thingy

[digital iron]

Neu was one of my EA

[burnt zephyr]

lol did u withdrawal

[digital iron]

I had to

I never got to see any other college acceptance or denials

Lowkey I wish I could of kept it tho I wanted to see the outcome

[mint root]

see i wish i did ed1 but my why bu essay was subpar at the time

[digital iron]

oh my why BU was made in like 3 days

[smoky tiger]

I thought it was rlly good too!!

[burnt zephyr]

lol do they check or something if u don’t withdrawal

[digital iron]

Before that I wanted to ED to USC but like I learned that they didn’t have ED 🥲

[burnt zephyr]

i don’t want to look at supps until decisions lolllll

[mint root]

but apparently ed2 doesn’t offer that much of a boost compared to ed1 so 🤩

[smoky tiger]

It’s practically just RD w less ppl

[digital iron]

Yeah they do

[mint root]

yea but mine now was generic

[kind cosmos]

if you apply ed2 and then switch to rd, would that help because it shows it’s very up on your list or the opposite

[burnt zephyr]

wtf how

[mint root]

sharing lists and shit

[digital iron]

It says it when the admissions looks into your profile

[burnt zephyr]

i’m telling u if i get into neu and bu i’m telling bu i’m too broke for them

🤭

[digital iron]

I mean my ED were either BU, tufts or some other schools

[mint root]

ed2 to rd??

[digital iron]

BU was chosen in the end

[digital iron]

LMAOOO

[kind cosmos]

Yes 😭

[digital iron]

Nah fr I couldn’t even compare financial aids since I didn’t have any other offers

[kind cosmos]

I didn’t ed2 I’m j curious

[digital iron]

Tbh RD acceptance is low but you got to think about how high the application number is

[undone summit]

so basically im not getting into bu and nyu

[mint root]

nah it would be a hot mess bc ed2 is binding or whatever

[kind cosmos]

You can rescind that though

[mint root]

if you back out of an ed agreement colleges might reject you because it doesn’t show commitment or sum shit like that

[digital iron]

I mean technically

You could back out

If you just say you can’t afford it

[mint root]

you can but i don’t think you should

[smoky tiger]

I’m rlly fucked aren’t I

[mint root]

for aid reasons it’s different

[digital iron]

Yeah but I don’t think you should do that

[smoky tiger]

I thougnt i had a good shot too w my ECs and stats

Fuck my life

[digital iron]

BRO YOU HAVE A VOOD SHOT

[kind cosmos]

Like if I ed2’d to five colleges and the next day I rescind them all would that help my chances for those schools

For the record I did NOT do that

[digital iron]

Ok

if one of the colleges found out

It be CRAZY

[smoky tiger]

Then ur fucked

[digital iron]

hypothetically

[smoky tiger]

387 OUT OF 3380

ITS OVER

THEY AINT TAKING ME

IM A BROWN DUDE WHO WANTS TO BE A DOCTOR

[kind cosmos]

True

[digital iron]

you would probably get blacklisted or something because ED you sign a paper

[digital iron]

BRO IM AN ASIAN DOING CS

ITS OKAY

ASIAN MALE

[mint root]

my guy those r estimates by doesn’t release data on ed1 va ed2

[smoky tiger]

I KNOW BUT THE PROJECTIONS R PROLLY CLOSE

[mint root]

but less ppl will do ed2 than ed1

[digital iron]

tbh I mean like numbers are numbers plenty of vals don’t get into their dream school

[undone summit]

woohoo nothing more relatable

[digital iron]

In the end it’s all about your essay

Your essay makes you stand out and determines a lot

[smoky tiger]

I Hope my essay is good enough

@mint root read it

[mint root]

it is fs

[undone summit]

i applied rd tho

[digital iron]

Ik my ranked two in the school didn’t get into amhers

[mint root]

some of the ed1 ppl i’ve met had mid essays and still got in

[smoky tiger]

Ok but we have to be real

Race is a factor

I’m prolly not that good compared to all the Asians

[digital iron]

Ok but at BU

You have a pretty good chance if it’s factored on race look at that diverse population

[mint root]

^

[digital iron]

My guy you are miles high above me

💀

[kind cosmos]

Was it only me who thought that BU wasn’t like crazy selective when they applied 😭

[smoky tiger]

BRO NOT POSSIBLE

[mint root]

me who’s not white or asian

[kind cosmos]

Like I knew it was selective but not 10% selective

[mint root]

the acceptance rate is like 14%

[digital iron]

I don’t think Bu is that selective 😭

[kind cosmos]

Ah I left our a crucial piece of information

[digital iron]

It’s the fact it will prob have over 100k applicants just like NEU because rest optional is going awya

[kind cosmos]

I’m a pretty average applicant 😭

[digital iron]

so 14% is reasonable

[mint root]

we need to gatekeep bu frr

[smoky tiger]

Do u think they eliminate a ton of applicants straight away

[digital iron]

No

[mint root]

nah not rly

[digital iron]

Admissions looks through everything

[kind cosmos]

Like I don’t have bad stats but it’s small things like I’m in pre calc and not honors science

[digital iron]

It’s their job even people with a 2.0 gps will get looked at

[kind cosmos]

For me 14% is WILD

[mint root]

unless you didn’t put in any effort into your app

[digital iron]

Don’t worry I’m in pre cal

[undone summit]

so ur saying my 4.0 gpa gets looked at too

[digital iron]

I currently have a 87 and we heading into trig

[smoky tiger]

I feel so defeated rn 😦

[undone summit]

im just joking lmao

[digital iron]

Yup

[smoky tiger]

I should’ve done Ed1

[digital iron]

I had a 3.9 but it’s all a scam fr

[undone summit]

did u apply somehwer else for ed1

[digital iron]

[smoky tiger]

Ya UPenn got shit on big time

[digital iron]

My 3.9 is inflated asf

[smoky tiger]

This is scary

[undone summit]

if i only have no worries for tuition, i would of applied somewhere for ed 😭

[digital iron]

UPenn is crazy my friend got in and ima say this because he even knows it, he was not the star candidate so I mean I think you guys are good

[undone summit]

either bu or nyu

[undone summit]

trust im not good at all

ec's r wack

[digital iron]

You don’t need to be the perfect candidate and at the end of the day college admissions is such a dice roll

[mint root]

i think i’m the only person who did ed to bu at my high school

[digital iron]

The “perfect” students get deferent and rejected from dream schools all the time

[smoky tiger]

I put so much effort in and all my stats r abive the average plus my ECs bruh I did wayy too much for this to blow up in my face

[digital iron]

Colleges also want a diverse class too

They don’t want a bunch of perfect on paper students :)

[mint root]

and like 60 ppl applied as well (most rd) out of 300 ish seniors bc they all r banking on northeastern

[undone summit]

dang i must be diverse. i spend 6 days a week during the summer helping out at my family business

[burnt zephyr]

my ec’s r not all that bc i live in a rural area in texas

[mint root]

you’re giving me hope fr 💓💓

[digital iron]

Nah fr

I just took leadership positions at school

That’s it

💀

[burnt zephyr]

what state r u in

[digital iron]

Texas

[smoky tiger]

If I don’t reply on decision day y’all know what happened 😐

[burnt zephyr]

do ppl in texas even apply to bu ☠️

i feel like that’s so rare

[digital iron]

You getting in

Fr

[undone summit]

so nhs, deca, hosa and stuff like that?

i don;t have any leadership positions in school clubs so i just use them to fill up my honors section

[burnt zephyr]

omg lol what if we all got into BU🙈🙈

[undone summit]

we will have a big summer party

[burnt zephyr]

i don’t rlly have leadership positions per-say

i could lowk send my ec’s

[digital iron]

I’m in like NHS, Chinese honor society, comp Sci honor society president, Senior committee treasure, plus I did things tailored to my major like Cyberstart got finals so out that in honors I was top 5% then CS50 and such

I didn’t do much

Then I had work and care taking

[mint root]

my most impressive EC was building carrd.co websites using html, teaching myself german, and this internship i had with a student led nonprofit based on social justice awareness ish

[burnt zephyr]

def in a texas suburb

[digital iron]

Aight see this is more impressive LMAO

😭

[burnt zephyr]

mine is rural-suburbish

[smoky tiger]

I rlly hope so bro I’m losing hope 😦

[digital iron]

Don’t lose hope my guy you got it

Trust 🤞

[mint root]

kids in my school have whole ass research positions with college profs

[digital iron]

Yeah fuck no not me LMAO

[mint root]

boston day🥰🥰

[undone summit]

[smoky tiger]

[digital iron]

That’s more of Cali and like Boston kids things since it’s hella competitive

[undone summit]

[smoky tiger]

he’s already in bro

[digital iron]

Oh I got in I did ED1

[smoky tiger]

Man is goated

[undone summit]

wow good stuff

[digital iron]

More like I was blessed by the fucking dice of RNG

[mint root]

yea i live in the boston area

and i go to a public school as well

[digital iron]

Admissions people were feeling real generous when they saw the Asian CS major wanting to also minor in economics

[smoky tiger]

😃😃😃

[burnt zephyr]

my EC’s were my clinical hours at hospitals & doctor offices, managing a environmental club to raise money for “environmental friendly” water fountains for our school, 4 year varsity athlete, stuco😭, & more lol

[mint root]

but all those harvard researchers kids ed to ivies and ed2 to northeastern bless up🧚🏾‍♀️

[smoky tiger]

The question is will they like me

[burnt zephyr]

i’ve also done some volunteering

that’s about it

[digital iron]

See this tailors to your major

So it’s some good ECs

Same with everyone else here

[burnt zephyr]

bio pre-med😋

[digital iron]

Pre med in Boston is crazy btw

The grade deflation is horrible I heard

[burnt zephyr]

huhhh

[digital iron]

💀

[burnt zephyr]

nooooo

[mint root]

yea bu for pre meds = pure hell

[digital iron]

Yeah

[burnt zephyr]

welp

[digital iron]

like usually pre meds go to some liberal arts college

So they can sustain the 4.0 GPA for med school

[mint root]

or brown

[digital iron]

yeah or brown

Brown has the best grade inflation

[undone summit]

bruh mines is 4 years manager in family restaurant (nonpaid obv), tutoring 40+ students, self learn to program/about hardware, NHS, and 2 summer programs

[burnt zephyr]

yeah it’s too late now🤩

[mint root]

all the smart premed kids ik ed brown

[digital iron]

I mean 4 year manager shows commitment

The rest is good

Imo wording is everything

[mint root]

you’ll be fine fs and med schools in the boston area are aware of bu’s grade deflation

[digital iron]

Making it sounds fancy

is everything

[undone summit]

badminton as a hobby 😎

[burnt zephyr]

my wording was bleh

[digital iron]

You think working in a restaurant is a crazy activity no yk what I said on my EC I made it sound like the most godly given task job ever

😍

[mint root]

The opportunities you have as a premed student at BU are insane

[undone summit]

fr didn't know what to say

[undone summit]

just opportunities in general is already insane

[mint root]

there’s like some accelerated med program that like, if you do well in your classes, you don’t have to take the MCAT and you get directly admitted into BU med school

[digital iron]

I “handled” 2k plus income over seeing the operation is part of what I said in reality I just serve food and use the cash register 🤷‍♂️

BU does have really good opportunities tho

You just have to go out of your way and chase them

[undone summit]

😂 real

[digital iron]

I’ve connected with people on LinkedIn and that’s the reoccurring advice I have been given that things aren’t handed to you

[undone summit]

i just said responsible for opening and closing of the restaurant

[digital iron]

Fr

[undone summit]

lowkey liked my why bu essay

commonapp essay eh depends on who's reading it

[mint root]

the why bu essay was one of my favs fr

[burnt zephyr]

wait i wanna read y’all why bu essays😭

[digital iron]

Don’t think about admissions too much as it will freak you out + cause anxiety you all will make it in just relax and let the college process take you where you need to be :)

I can hand y’all mine

[burnt zephyr]

plssss

[mint root]

yea dm me

[undone summit]

^

[digital iron]

It’s nothing crazy

[mint root]

it better take me to bu tho😃😃

[digital iron]

FRRR

[mint root]

pls

i think my grades r holding me back fr but my mid year will save me

[weary helm]

Dude you have a good shot, don’t lose hope!

[digital iron]

^

[weary helm]

I’m the only person from my school applying to BU

If i find another person I will literally track them down

[smoky tiger]

u got this

[weary helm]

i got deferred from my ED1 William and Mary which was a target school for me

that really made me lose so much hope this app seaosn

[mint root]

deferred from w&m is crazy

[weary helm]

so is UVA

[digital iron]

Don’t lose hope!

[weary helm]

what hurts even more is that everyone said I would get in..and then i didnt sooo lmao

[weary helm]

thank u!! ❤️

[mint root]

maybe they think you would get into a better school or something

but the fight isn’t over

[weary helm]

nah some other guy who applied ED got in, compared to him I'm average

you're absolutely right im doing my best to not give up

[mint root]

did u do ed2 anywhere

college apps are random as hell

[weary helm]

no

i really wanted to for BU but parents wouldn't allow me

[undone summit]

y

[mint root]

r u instate for w&m

[weary helm]

yes

[undone summit]

oh nvm

u did rd then like me

financial reasons

[weary helm]

we could definitely afford full price if it came to that.

[undone summit]

nvm again

[mint root]

then you should’ve ed😭

[undone summit]

full price is insane

[weary helm]

but in general it's unjustifiable to pay 80K a year for ANY school

[mint root]

yea fs

[weary helm]

higher education should not cost that much for anyone imo

[undone summit]

i need like a package of like 60k to even consider bu if accepted

[mint root]

bu’s full need bless up🤞

[weary helm]

if BU gave us like 30-40K i would be okay

[mint root]

the most i’d pay for bu is like 25k ish

[undone summit]

hmm need more hehe

yeah 25-30

im not paying 40-50 even if cs pays wells

[mint root]

but my estimate for them is lower than what i thought so parents let me ed there

[undone summit]

mines was higher 😭

[weary helm]

that's fair

honestly im going to major in international relations, its not like boston is the ideal place to be for government/politics lmao

[mint root]

i thought i was gonna pay like 35k+ then my bu estimate came back and it was like half that

bu does have a good ir program tho but gw/georgetown woild be better for ir

simply bc you can do hill internships in fall and spring

[weary helm]

it does

and also tbh i dont want to go to college in dc simply bc it's dc

boston seems like a much cooler place to be for college

[mint root]

yea dc’s a great place to be post grad

[weary helm]

exactly

[mint root]

college in dc is mid

boston’s hella fun in college

[weary helm]

yeah fr i cant think of any really cool things to do in dc other than museums, white house, or Georgetown

[mint root]

georgetown in the summer is crowded asl

do not recommend driving there

[undone summit]

if i go bu, i will get to attend my first hockey game ever

[weary helm]

gt the neighborhood/university is mid location wise

GTU is so far away from the city anyways that's why gwu and au > gt

[mint root]

yea there’s no metro stop there

pretty school mid location

all the ppl ik who go to american transfer after the first year 😭

i was gonna apply there but their stem is on par with georgetown so i didn’t bother

[weary helm]

im touring au next saturday

i honestly like gwu better

[mint root]

american had a pretty campus tho

[weary helm]

im touring when it's like 40 degrees out lets gooo

[mint root]

oh i toured american in august

[weary helm]

i like schools with no campus 🤪

i wished i toured au in summer

[mint root]

same 😍😍

[weary helm]

coming from a rural ass town in virginia im so done with schools with a defined campus

also done with being the only POC in my classes sometimes

[digital iron]

Keep in mind if you are rd the money pool might be limited and tends to dry up because ED and earlier RD acceptances

[mint root]

felt so hard i hate defined campuses

[weary helm]

im just curious but how did you guys discover BU?

[smoky tiger]

Someone told me I’d fit in bc im loud as f but then I went into detail and loved it 😀

[digital iron]

I looked at 100% need met schools where I could major in CS with a high pop undergrad

[mint root]

lots of ppl at my high school apply there (i’m from mass) and one of my good friends is a freshmen there

[undone summit]

Nationally known school, heard of bu since 7th grade

And always a big fan of college decisions reaction videos on YouTube

[mint root]

i’ve known of BU since i was like 10

but then again i live 40 minutes away

[weary helm]

Originally I wasn’t going to apply to BU but then I toured the school on a whim bc I was in the area. But ever since touring and researching I fell in love with the school

[mint root]

same here

i didn’t want to stay in mass but i toured BU and loved it

[weary helm]

I told myself I never wanted to go to a big school in the city but BU changed that

[smoky tiger]

It’s a social place i love it

[mint root]

yea fs

[smoky tiger]

Any astrology for BU 😭😭😭

[wintry knoll]

anyone submitted a peer rec on common app?

[mint root]

only the portal going down the day before/of decisions drop

[digital iron]

Nah fr

[mint root]

there’s NONE for bu

except some urm students getting phone calls the day before

[digital iron]

That’s only for minorities tho

Sadly we all can’t get that nice phone call

[junior hawk]

i dont think so, i havent withdrawed from my others yet because i want to see if i get in even tho it doesnt matter

[junior hawk]

well nvm lol

[weary helm]

did you get into your ed school>

[mint root]

don’t you have to withdraw by deposit deadline

[digital iron]

Yeah I think something like that

[junior hawk]

i only had one other friend apply there most people at my school want to go to ut

[digital iron]

UT so hard to get into without auto 😭

[junior hawk]

no its actually wild im so scared

[junior hawk]

i can dm u mine!

[junior hawk]

i got 65k

[digital iron]

That nice needs met

🙏

[junior hawk]

yeah i got into bu!!

i literally have no clue how to withdraw apps and i asked my counselor and she was like no ur fine

but the only other school i applied to was ut

[digital iron]

If it’s was instate it’s okay

[junior hawk]

bro everyone applies there its so crazy

[digital iron]

You just have to withdraw out of state schools through their individual portals

[junior hawk]

ohh ok ty!!!

[weary helm]

oh nice!

you should get the prefosh role then

also @junior hawk did you apply test optional? sorry, im just curious

[junior hawk]

no dont be sorry but yeah i did my sat was horrible

[mint root]

how do you keep yourself sane

[weary helm]

This gives me hope ❤️ I applied test optional

[mint root]

me too

actually most people don’t submit a test score to bu anyway

[weary helm]

Oh man what would we do without test optional 🫠

[mint root]

yea my 1300 ain’t shit here

[weary helm]

Didn’t think so bc the freaking average is 1490 💀💀💀💀💀

[junior hawk]

sleep the crazy away

[mint root]

i wish i can sleep until decisions come out

[weary helm]

Literally my school Average is like 1000 or 1100

Bro same

[mint root]

how do u find ur sat average for ur hs

[weary helm]

I asked my counselor for the school profile

They have to send colleges the school profile

[mint root]

oh gotcha

i’m pretty sure my sat is either average or below average

[weary helm]

For your school?

[mint root]

yea

mfs grind the sat here

i prolly could’ve gotten a 1400+ but didn’t bother bc all my schools r test optional except georgetown

[weary helm]

All the people who got 1500+ paid more then a thousand for prep

[mint root]

same here

[junior hawk]

its def not worth it if ur applying turning a test optional year

[weary helm]

No one here really takes it seriously expect top 5 percent of the class

[mint root]

hella ppl have private college counselors and sat tutors

[weary helm]

Thank god for test optional idk what I would’ve done

[mint root]

no fr

[junior hawk]

the junior number 1 at my school got a 1600 😭

[mint root]

college counselors r like $10k+

[weary helm]

And all of them are rich af ppl who could afford sat prep

[mint root]

who tf got 10k to drop on a college counselor

[smoky tiger]

i self studied bc my dad said it was the way to be successful in life 🫶

[kind cosmos]

So true

For me I like didn’t really study enough 😭

[junior hawk]

my mom almost got me one but for a lot cheaper than that but in our intro meeting she told me that i probably wouldnt get into bu and then we stopped seeing her

[kind cosmos]

I got a really good score but I’m j wondering if I could have hit that 35 mark if I actually learned science

[junior hawk]

its all a scam

[mint root]

i’m pretty sure 10k is more money than i’ve ever seen in my parents bank account

[undone summit]

Manifesting acceptance plus this. Hope that’s not too much lol

[weary helm]

Literally college Board is a monopoly. If everyone would just stop taking the SAT or act they would go out of business.

[mint root]

fuck the collegeboard fr

[smoky tiger]

SAME

[mint root]

charging $100 a pop for an ap exam that some schools don’t even accept

[weary helm]

Oh and IB

[smoky tiger]

I WOULDVE GOT 35 IF IT WASNT FOR MY STUPID SCIENCE SECTION

[junior hawk]

you will achieve just be postive

[weary helm]

Fuck IB

[smoky tiger]

WHY TF IS THE SCIENCE SO EZ FOR EVERHONE ELSE

I STRUGGLE SO MUCH

[undone summit]

My ap exam was 19 dollars

Ap comp sci was free

[mint root]

that’s my best score

[undone summit]

But nah the sat r mad expensive

[junior hawk]

only 4 of my ap classes count as credit for bu

i could cry

[weary helm]

When I realized I had to PAY to SEND my scores after paying 90+ to take them like bruh

[mint root]

most of mine count for elective credit and a hub requirement💔💔

[junior hawk]

oh my god my school is like $95 + taxes and fees

[mint root]

nah you can send your scores for free until june 20th after ap exams

wait until ur committed somewhere then do it

[smoky tiger]

My dad also said I could only take the SAT once bc it had to be “one and done”

[mint root]

my parents have no idea about the sat or act

[junior hawk]

when they make you pay for your own responses to the test thats what gets me

[undone summit]

Right 12.50 like r fing kidding me

At least css profile was free

[junior hawk]

i cried filling out css with my mother

[mint root]

$60 for sat just to get a mid score

[undone summit]

She talking about sat

[mint root]

SAME

[weary helm]

Oh yeah sending schools your CSS profile cost MONEY

[undone summit]

No it was free for me

I guess I had a waiver

[mint root]

yea you can do that as well until but you won’t be able to see your scores

[weary helm]

I had to pay money to send schools my financial aid like give me a break

[mint root]

ur family must not make hella money

[undone summit]

Now quizlet is requiring money too

Like that’s why I don’t hate khan as much

[weary helm]

Education system is so corrupt

There’s this site called knowt and it’s literally like Quizlet but free

[smoky tiger]

I NEED THAT

[mint root]

knowt doesn’t have an app yet tho

[undone summit]

Gramamrly helped out for my essays cuz I’m not a grammar person

[smoky tiger]

Yaaa let’s just say I was 1 off a 35 🥹🥹

[junior hawk]

quizlet selling out was horrible

[weary helm]

Tip: if you need to hear your essay read aloud just put it into Google translate

[junior hawk]

i did not mean to respond to that sorry

[weary helm]

All good

[mint root]

$16 per school + a $9 one time fee 😇😇

[weary helm]

Literally

[junior hawk]

what majors did you guys apply to?

[undone summit]

, google translate hurts my ears

[weary helm]

Senior is the most expensive year ong

[undone summit]

CS baby

[smoky tiger]

And mentally draining 😍

[weary helm]

IR

[smoky tiger]

Bio

[undone summit]

Then we have to pay a deposit fee to attend a college 💀

[mint root]

CS

[undone summit]

Money for a graduation gown that we are borrowing

Like bruh

[weary helm]

Senior portraits of you choose to get those done

[mint root]

oh we keep our gown

[weary helm]

Senior trip

Same here

[digital iron]

Wait till you see BU has a $650 enrollment fee

[undone summit]

Huh

Sbu only has 150

600?

[digital iron]

You can get it waved tho maybe

[weary helm]

On top of 80K😍

[digital iron]

FRRR

😭

[undone summit]

Not sure on the my head, but meal plan prob like 10000 right

[mint root]

meal plan is like 6k yearly

[digital iron]

Idk I got like 74k in aid that’s with a 3k work study

Meal and housing is like 17k

[undone summit]

I’m living in the warren towers if I go

[weary helm]

Warrren towers gives me the creeps

[undone summit]

Really

[digital iron]

You have to stay there your freshman year

I think

It was warren

😭

[mint root]

nah freshmen have warren, towers, or west campus

[weary helm]

I’ve heard freshmen’s getting bay state dorms

[junior hawk]

i literally told my parents all i wanted for christmas was my enrollment deposit paid bc the amount was so crazy

[weary helm]

But they were prob rich

[digital iron]

Did you ask about getting it waved 😭😭

they prob would of waved it for you I’m ngl

My ass did not and was not paying that 650

[junior hawk]

WAIT i didnt know you could

oh my god stop it

[digital iron]

NOOOO

[mint root]

you can stay in bay state as a freshmen but it’s expensive

[digital iron]

WHYYY

😭

[junior hawk]

I WISH I KNEWWWW MAN WHAT

[digital iron]

I’m bffr rn

[junior hawk]

thats on me i shouldve called them 😞

[undone summit]

Warren has a dining room unlike the west campus right?

Or am I trippin

[digital iron]

Should of dm you b4 the enrollment fee date LMAO

[mint root]

warren has a dining hall attached to the building so you don’t go outside

[junior hawk]

we live and we learn i will never make that mistake again

[mint root]

west dorms do in 2 of the 3 halls

[digital iron]

Nah blessing

Test optional 😍

[mint root]

my friend who lives in warren said it wasn’t horrible but not like peak confort yk

[junior hawk]

i almost didnt apply to bu bc of the communal bathrooms im so scared for that

[weary helm]

The only blessing that came out of CVOID

[digital iron]

As you rise you can get better living standards

[digital iron]

Ong bro

Too bad they don’t have that next year

[undone summit]

Dk how I feel about this yet

Won’t know til I experienced something like it

[digital iron]

But at least they taking away asking about race

[azure bloom]

is it better than nyu dorms

or worse

[weary helm]

Omg we lucked out then

[mint root]

most schools haven’t announced yet but many will go back to test required

[digital iron]

Freshman dorms look cramped

[digital iron]

A lot of schools announced that they are removing test optional after this year

Some will keep but most want test scores again sadly

[mint root]

ik purdue and MIT is test required

[azure bloom]

well we have new sat and that shit sooo

[junior hawk]

yeah sat is digital now

[digital iron]

Oh yeah the new SAT is online

[mint root]

the new sat will be for co’ 2025 in the us (intl it’s for co’ 2024)

[digital iron]

Forgot about that

[azure bloom]

also only like 1 hour

[junior hawk]

i took the test digital sat and it was so weird from the normal test

[digital iron]

I wish we could of taken digital like 4 hours in a room testing is always hell

💀

[azure bloom]

at 7:30 am dont forget

[digital iron]

Especially in Texas when we have state exams It made me want to jump

[mint root]

a lot of my college freshmen friends never bothered with the sat

[undone summit]

I submitted mine bc I felt that a datapoint is better than none even if the score is below what is likeable

[digital iron]

[junior hawk]

not the staar

[mint root]

in mass we have mcas sophomore year and it’s pure hell

[junior hawk]

i have never taken a staar test without falling asleep in the middle of it

[mint root]

but if you go to a private school you don’t have to take it

some states make you take the sat or act instead to graduate and i’d rather have that

[weary helm]

Oh no

[mint root]

shits like 6 days long

[digital iron]

Good thing we didn’t have to take the 3 staar test during freshman year

[mint root]

for my state test it was only english and math

we usually have a science and covid section but they got rid of it for us bless up they should’ve gotten rid of it

they also r gonna make mcas harder for the current freshmen but that not my problem

[undone summit]

My state KY does that with the ACT

[mint root]

anyway ✨BU wants me✨

my midterms r this week and i barely studied

[smoky tiger]

I’ll say that too!

They want us all

[burnt zephyr]

No bc i’m definitely gonna need a type of aid to get to this school

[mint root]

fr

low efc gang🧚🏾‍♀️

bu decisions dropping dates and how long between them 🥰 have fun with this

if they stuck to schedule ed2 drops feb 7🤣

[burnt zephyr]

we r so obsessed

no bc it’s definitely the 7th idc

[digital iron]

Frrrr 😍

[burnt zephyr]

mine is like 3327

[mint root]

idk mine

cant fathom how people have 30k+ efcs

my fafsa only includes my moms info but my dad actually has money so my estimate is higher than it should be

[digital iron]

Oh buddy

Someone here at my school had like 150k +

[mint root]

WHAT

[digital iron]

It’s because they also take into account investments and such

[mint root]

THATS MORE THAN MY FAMILY MAKES

[digital iron]

LMAO

[mint root]

like on fafsa or in general

[digital iron]

I know people who have 100k EFC on the FAFSA

[mint root]

mines like 8253

[burnt zephyr]

hmm

[digital iron]

Oh on the FAFSA

The highest I’ve heard is 150k

[burnt zephyr]

i’m broke 🤩

[mint root]

i just barely don’t qualify for a pell grant

[digital iron]

Same my EFC was 0

But my CSS fucked it up

[mint root]

cuz my mom got a fucking raise in 2021

[digital iron]

Stupid non custodial parent

[mint root]

but she lost her job

[digital iron]

Should of just said my mom was single

[mint root]

this my dad makes more than my mom so my dads profile is gonna fuck it up

[digital iron]

If you need to dispute for financial aid you should tell them that

[digital iron]

😦

[mint root]

yea i prolly will

[digital iron]

Bruh if I didn’t have to put my dad like on my FAFSA I would of probably been going to BU for like 3k or lower something

[burnt zephyr]

my mom doesn’t have a job anymore (i think) ☠️

[digital iron]

But no I have to put my other biological parent

[mint root]

u had to put ur dad on ur fafsa

[burnt zephyr]

wait didn’t someone get 60k from BU here

[digital iron]

My parents are divorced

😍

[mint root]

oh my parents never got married

[digital iron]

Yeah so I had to put my dad down

[mint root]

but i haven’t seen my dad since i was 14

[digital iron]

It wasn’t an option saying my mom was single

[burnt zephyr]

did u get aid

[digital iron]

If it was never in the courts

[digital iron]

Oh yeah I got 71k, 74k with work study

I still have to pay 8k tho a year if I take the work study

[mint root]

ah

[burnt zephyr]

mmm 8k not bad

[digital iron]

But it could of been less if I didn’t have to put my dad on my CSS

[mint root]

my aid situation is complex because my mom has nothing to her name

but my dad has shit to his name

but i haven’t seen that man since like pre covid

[digital iron]

Sadly my dad is remarried and is financially well

[mint root]

he’s financially stable sadly and has assets and shit

[digital iron]

So that boosted my stuff on my CSS profile

[digital iron]

Fr bro

[burnt zephyr]

no but if i get in i’m def touring on spring break😋

[mint root]

i did the npc with my moms info only and i would only have to pay like $6100 w/ work study

[burnt zephyr]

okay but i’ve heard that bu is bad w aid

[mint root]

if ur rich

[digital iron]

Nah I mean bu isn’t as bad but they don’t hand out hella money unless you poor

At least it’s not like NYU

[wintry knoll]

i have 18efc💀

[mint root]

REAL

[smoky tiger]

Based

I don’t Need a calendar for that tho it’s gonna be ingrained in my brain 😭😭

[mint root]

my schedule that day is so good

i only have class until 11:45

[burnt zephyr]

MBN

i have practice until 6 cst

so bu def will be out

i might open in front of my team 😭

[mint root]

omg that’d be epic

but i would personally cry

[burnt zephyr]

yeah honestly i’ll probably just open it in the car LOL

[mint root]

ooh r u gonna record

[burnt zephyr]

mmm probably LOL

[mint root]

me too

[rapid vault]

gl to all the ed2 applicants!

[azure bloom]

Maan my semester hasn’t even ended yet so I haven’t sent my mid year

[smoky tiger]

mines not gonna send till the first week of Feb so I doubt it’ll mean much

I got an A- in AP stat in the 2nd MP but we don’t talk abt that

[undone summit]

A- is bad?

That what I have in ap stat too

I think it’s okay

[mint root]

my semester ends this week but grades are finalized next friday so they should get my mid year

my qtr grades are good tho but my mid year is better

[smoky tiger]

It’s not bad I just know other applicants r gonna have A+ in everything

[mint root]

i have 2 B+‘s in my qtr grades ur def fine

[burnt zephyr]

omg should i just send in 2 grading periods bc my teacher legit won’t grade my final

[mint root]

depends on when do final grades get published

but yea u should if those grades r better than ur other grades

[burnt zephyr]

i want to but my counselor keeps saying “we only send sem grades for mid-report”

[mint root]

bu requires senior year grades for ed ppl tho

so they must have like first quarter grades from u or something

[azure bloom]

Yeah Boston U literally says they accept 1st period grades too but my school wouldn’t send them

[mint root]

if ur rd it doesn’t matter if you don’t have first marking grades that much

[smoky tiger]

Ya I had to go thru some admin to get my MP1 sent

Took a min but we got it

[mint root]

does ur school not do it automatically

[smoky tiger]

nah they send mid years automatically

but those don’t come in for a while

So I did MP1

[mint root]

i mean like quarter grades

aka MP1

[smoky tiger]

Nah they don’t send them automatically

Dumb Ik

[mint root]

we have those automatically sent because so many schools ppl apply to require them

[smoky tiger]

My MP1 grades were immaculate so hopefully they gimme a little push

[mint root]

same bc my gpa is teash

but bu apparenly loves an upward trend

[smoky tiger]

Ya that upwards trend gonna come in clutch w my APs

I got all A+s and an A in stat

If that ain’t enough for em idk what is 😅

[mint root]

i went from a 2.8 to a 3.7

[smoky tiger]

Ayyyyy

Clutch

[mint root]

if that doesn’t show something i will cry

[smoky tiger]

Dw it will

U showed a big jump

I have faith

That acceptance rate just scares me lol

Will I rlly be one of the ~300

I’m so pissed tho like I feel I could’ve got in easily ED 1 but at the same time I rlly revamped my thing for Ed2

[mint root]

no same

i wish i did ed1

i’m hoping the BU content on my tiktok is a sign i’m getting in

[smoky tiger]

My app is so strong tho now

Idk

If I did ED1 w my last app I might not have gotten in tbh

I kinda did a full revamp w this one

[mint root]

yea my app this time around is much stronger

[smoky tiger]

My parents also wouldn’t let me do Ed1 ugh

[mint root]

i did ed2 so i can have a stronger app/mid year grades

i’m hoping more ppl apply to neu/nyu ed2 deceasing the competition for ed2

[smoky tiger]

My essay is good I think

I kind of made it different

More out of the box

[burnt zephyr]

uw or w?

[mint root]
