Boston University Transfer Fall 2022

Did you guys get recommendation letters with your application?

I wasn’t and i had everything in by mid february except my proof of grad took a while to be uploaded to the portal. I had to call and ask them to tag it so they could upload it. That was about 2 weeks before I got my decision I think

Wave at 3 hopefully?

I am so sorry to hear that, I rooting for you the most to get in. You’ve been so supportive to everyone. Everything happens for a reason and on to new great adventures!

I guess no?

My friend called earlier and they said they “forgot” to give him his decision and he’ll have it by the end of the week. Maybe there will be a big wave tomorrow and/or Friday?

wow how do they “forget” to give a decision?? these rolling decisions are so annoying, they should really release them all the same day to avoid all the anxiety

Cannot agree more

you’d think for $80 you could get a decision in less than 3 months right? and I doubt they spent more than 5 minutes looking at each one :upside_down_face:

Yeah I had either 2 or 3 people submit letters for me back in end of February

They probably review applications like what you said. Obviously, the rolling process is killing us who have not heard back yet. I mean some schools did a rolling basis, but why BU took such a long time. And I had already submitted it on Feb 1st. Sorry to be negative, but it is true.

don’t worry, I feel the same way. At this point I would rather get a rejection than wait another month

To be honest, I felt totally the same way

Did we have to fill out the Transfer college report? I didn’t realize that I did not complete this until now… lol

I think you’re supposed to have an adviser at your current school fill it out, that’s what I did.

you need to send that to your current school’s registrar’s office and have them fill it out and send it, it’s required

I’m convinced they just lie about when you’ll hear back just to get people off the phone

I wish there was at least some method of decision release/application review we were aware of… would make it even the slightest bit less anxiety inducing

honestly, like i get that they can’t give exact info over the phone but it can’t be that hard to say that you’ll hear back by a certain date. i am on the list for an expedited decision and when i first got put on that list (last week on tuesday), they said nothing about if i wanted to hear back by a certain date. when i called on monday, they said that i could’ve requested my decision by a certain date. i asked if i could do that now, and they told me no. like how was i supposed to know that i could’ve requested my decision for a certain date if they didn’t tell me that was an option lol
