Bro last year they took an ed1 full pay from my school
Most ppl at my school are full pay
their income prob high then
Ye
i come from low income area
Im one of those broke kids in a rich area
damnn
😭
rightt
It was atleast like 3.5k square feet
is international and domestic tuition the same?
I think so
Also I sent a loci to my admissions representative in the region as well as the admissions office, am I supposed to send it somewhere else too
Ye but internationals don't get any federal aid
only aid from the school
if they decide to give you any
Anyone else get this? I don’t see anything new to submit in my portal
yeah I got it too
Did u have sum new to upload
nah
I think it's just automated
when is the speculated decision date
they say by April 1st, I'm fairly sure
so it could be before that
it’s normally late march
they’ll announce it on their instagram within the next few weeks
I didn’t get that 😭😭
Do all dorms have private washrooms
Communal
common restrooms are probably going to be the case across the board for freshman housing at uni
does BU not use naviance
they somehow didnt get my rec but all m other schools did and i just realized
It uses naviance
uh oh
email asap
they got mine through naviance
ask abt it asap!!!
is it too late to update bostonu abt any new achievements
I don’t think it’s too late
Does anyone know when regular decisions came out last year 🤔
it was march 23rd
a saturday morning
Ty 🫶
I thought it comes out at 1st april
I think BU comes out towards the end of March not April 1
When do transfer decisions come out? Asking 4 a friend
I remember not knowing BU came out until one of my friend told me 😭
It was right before my calculus midterm (On a Saturday)
Counselor email
o
Boston University RD Decision Date
Saturday, March 22, 2025
Source: counselor email
@everyone
oh shit
Oh
why so long fr
the 21st should have a lot of schools too
why cant we all collectively agree on 14th fr
great date
why wait until 1st of april
wdym
takes so long fr
tons of rd
cooked they still dont have my recs
they sent it but our naviance broke down or somethin
and i asked my counselor they ain responding
Should I send them an email asking if they received my materials from an email last two weeks ago?
The portal still says they don’t have it
March 22nd is so tuff
Right
I thought I was going to have no decisions between 21st and 27th
i'm so cooked ong
ive just been on a rejection streak 😭
i mean i only got rejected from two schools but still
praying rd takes me because I got rejected from every single early school escept 1
are you transfer?
hi
Heyo!
they responded in a day for me
they finally submitted my transcript holy
They ghosting me 💀

bu dead
also I live too close to Boston tbh it wouldn’t feel like I’m away but if I got a ton of money then yes!!
W
I got asked to apply to the honors college so if I get in all go
*i’ll
Jesus I’m tired
cause we like that
bu next fri?
it’s next saturday
why on sat 🤮
isnt office of admissions closed on weekends
Do yk what time bu releases
Morning I think?
i thought it was always 7 pm
tbh it was better to wake up to it than have to wait around all day
what's wrong w it
it is ugly
go to received
true
Please please please take me Boston 🙏🙏
is it coming today
22nd march
good luck everyone!
7pm EST or another time?
is it confirmed?
8 am I think
8 AM EST ye
how do we know its actually march 22
cuz they assume everyone applyign to bu is rich and has a counselor
so they just tell them
Idk boss I took that from someone else
I think in the past it’s been in the morning
is bu gonna under admit this year cuz of the renovations and stuff
i really hope yall get in!!!
doesnt seem like it based on ED
saturday
i hope i get in. I got deferred from ED
same defferred ed2
no
u are not worthy
Same with ed2
It should be fine from what I’ve seen most colleges assume you can’t submit them because your school uses a trimester schedule
They’ll just base their decision off the grades on your transcript
nah u got it
counselor js needs to do their thing
this been there since like i submitted my application probably
like
in january
also my counselor is historically lazy
💀
if ur paranoid abt it u can prob js shoot an email
or u can ask another counselor at ur school to help u out
like 360+
oh we have 90 ish
bu '29
they don’t accept by major
i was deferred ED1 but i heard they defer a LOT of people so is it even worth getting my hopes up... and i sawa tik tok (from brandon the college dude) and he said if u got deferred from BU uour chances of getting in are low
they admit by college
did ya pray today
thats the only emoji i see..
😵
it’s a private school tho
so this chanel is all i got..
in-state doesn’t matter
theres a good chunk of ppl ive met oos
yea i mean like info wise i dont know much
my roomie is oos!
do u think theyll accept a lot of deferred studwents
bc this years college stuff is kinda crazy
i mean
prob
with our housing crisis rn, they r likely gonna underadmit
oh shitt
idont know too much abt deferals but ik last year three ppl got deferred but still got in
don’t they have that hotel?
for housing
yes but majority r placed in fenway
wait how are u co 29
it is, but defo not idea;
ED 1/2?
ED 1
oh it sounded like u were a student
LMAO
are u in state?
yep
its private so they dgaf
oh
they js love ED applicants
well they hated me I GUESS
how much do u have to pay.. do ppl actually pay the 80k or do they give good aid
im fgli, paying ~1k if ur excluding work study
I barely got anything from fasfa for my schools so im scared
fgli?
and my other roomie is paying like ~10k or less
first gen low income
the aid calculator gave me a reasonable estimate so hopefully i get in
my sister is on a full ride and shes noti in one of the scholarship programs
i think bu is one of the more generous schools
yaleyaleyaleyale
be YOU at b U!!!!
everybody's supplemental in one phrase i fear
i don’t even remember what i wrote for the essay
LMFAO I JUST CHECKED
i reused the why us essay i recycled for half my schools and the end is really cheesy but oh well
i didnt even write the why us essay
i wrote the other one
issue u care about
OOH
someone from my class already got in ed so idk how good my chances are 😭
Can I send someone my essay for them to rate on a scale of 1-10
Yes
Which topic yall pick
second
Did any of u guys do bu overnight
anyone checking portal codes or have blank checks?
How competitive is Sargent
I applied for CAS but now I’m regretting it cause cas is so competitive
I think i wrote about my major 😭 which is psychology and the specific labs i wanna explore
i think i did community essay
I’m regretting not applying to the honors college
Does anyone know if it’s worth it
Like from what they’ve heard or experienced
The program seems good when I look on their website but I wanna also know about their student life
not worth it
only benefit is u get the nicer dorm freshman yr
bangtan u is crazy ngl
one in like end of oct? i did
saturday
Okay
Bangtan will be my life if I don’t get into bu 🫠
can someone just hack the portal and tell us
iknpsect elenmetn

Sup

I think so

Congrats!!
bu is out tmrw right?
did anyone get calls from bu
no I got a call from UMass today tho
Yes
yayyy
theyre calling 1st gen, diversity, etc
?
Yup! Just received the call
you got yale already
is it form the actually admissions officer or just the admissions officec ppl
True, but I still wanna now the rest of my decisions, BU was once my dream school soo…
are you domestic
do they call internationasl
domestic?
same question
yeah
hey bro i just saw you in another thread
did you get in
got nothing
o congrats on yale
Yeah, I am. Though I think they are calling according to their criteria, domestic or int since they mentioned how they are part of some sort of international development committee or something like that idk
Thank you!
What they even say in the call
I forgot
I think? Im not first gen but a minority. The call was short and concise and being honest I forgot most of it, the only thing I remember is that I got in and to check status tomorrow lol, I was walking my dog when it happened xD
Thx!
so are Asian ppl not a minority anymore
i think they mean underrepresented minorities
any intls called?
Thsi is tmr?
its first gen and minoritys
DEI stuff I guess, idk
engaging w students they want represented in their student body (1) and simultaneously demonstrating their own interest in specific applicants
i dont know if they call everyone
rip im black girl magic and no call
does anyone know what time decisions come out otmorrow?
prollyyyy 8 am
omg I got a phone call !!!
congrats!!!
What does a phone call do
that means ur in
Damn well I didn’t get one 😭🫠
same
u get a mf phone call if u get in?!
Not really
They are in the fixing rn
displacement defo sucks 💔
but everyone is getting moved to Fenway/hotel
Bro what’s the point of the decisions tmrw if they gonna accept everyone with a phone call
😭
I think theyre only calling specific ppl
No phone call means cooked?
they never gave me a call when I ED’d until after I saw the letter wtf 😭
im def cooked
i said the wrong college name in my sup
im not getting in chat
LOL
bu decision countdown (hours)
do they care about demonstrated interest
this is the one school i applied to that i toured
i heard 8 am
aint no way im waking that early
THATS CRAZY
its THOUSANDS of students i rly doubt it
is this 8 am EST tmr morning
girl JUST GO TO FUCKING YALE ALREADY
and a 300 word supp
I CANT
I DONT HAVE MY LETTER
FOR ALL I KNOW THEY REJECTED ME
honors college?
hopefully they didnt tho
i got rejected northeastern accepted tufts so im just curious about bu
honors college and trustee scholarship
wait i wanna sweep the boston schools too
rn im 2/2, waiting on bu harvard
did u get northeastern
i think that counts
i rly wanna go to the honors college
my sister is in the honors college she loves it
when is boston coming out tmr?
same
in the morning presumably
i see makes sense
damn
we all competing ig
i literally only applied to khc because i thought that the scholarship people would like it if i did
which now in hindsight is kinda dumb
khc is better tho
like if u get into khc go
the dorm is so niceee
and u can always drop it later
like my sister is in khc but is dropping it junior year so she can do other stuff
i was going to write those essays
but then i was like
nah i'm not doing that
kind of regret it now
if its 8am eastern thats 5am for me
do i stay up or do i wake up early
decisions decisions
wake up early
lmao
u dont wanna crash out with 0 sleep
or be excited with 0 sleep as well
because u will crash out either way
real 💀
just wake up when you normally would
and then open it
also if u stay up and open it and its bad
you wont be able to go to sleep
yeah i was planning on doing that
but knowing me i'd prolly wake up at like 4am and cant go back to sleep cuz im anxious
if you would wake up at 11 theres no difference in decision btwn 11 and 8
ohh
its okay though bc now i have smth to get out of bed for!
Honestly, not much you can really do in that circumstance . . . Best of luck, though!!!
Same lol
You know
Maybe I was just never meant to go a the schools I want to
College apps really make me feel dumb af
Relatableeee-
Especially seeing the applications that other people have, after you submitted yours.
super worried abt being auto-rejected cause i didn't take precalc (took ap stats) 💔 i didnt #know it was a required credit for all schools am i cooked no one mentioned that to me ever (i applied to sva if that changes anything)
okay now im just lost why does their common data set say its required but their admissions page just say recommended
just wait till tomorrow
yaaaaay ❤️
there was a video???
it was an optional glimpse video
i don't think it's a huge deal bc they don't really talk about it unlike brown
i toured and i'm on their mailing list so hopefully that makes up for no video
in terms of demonstrated interest
i toured too! and i applied with a portfolio and extra writing sample so i think whatever was lost from the video was made up for in those
fingers crossed for us 🤞
Its gg
its my last school im rlly hoping to get into outside of any ivies 🙏
Hoping BU breaks my streak of rejection 🤞
Good luck to everyone WE WILL ALL GET IN 🗣️
Haven't seen confetti since beginning of March 🗣️ IT's time to see sum nice
damn 😭 WE'RE SEEING THAT CONFETTI TOMMORROW!
🗣️🗣️🗣️
i might be the most cooked applicant of 2029 bu

Another campus?

unless Emory comes through
Apparently BU tracks demonstrated interest. So if you didn’t show any you were likely waitlisted
nah i have to go somewhere else for a year then id get to transfer to boston university so like uga to boston
bro if its your dream school u must've learned about it wrong (unless u got accepted then congrats!!)
Ohhh
i did show demonstrated interest tho
Can all the decisions come out already I'm so over ts 🙄
I have no idea
i got guaranteed transfer but i really don't wanna transfer ☹️
they came to my school as a my panel and i went
Explains guaranteed transfer lmao
Waitlisted
Oh that makes sense
Well shi. Maybe they thought u were over qualified
NOOO
If BU was actually my top school id transfer. It isn’t
me too fren like once i go somewhere im gonna wanna stay bro
Im just not meant to leave my state ig
So I guess they caught me lmao
im assuming this isnt guaranteed transfer?
