doctormelody Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 I literally do not know what to do with myself for three hours until the mail comes. This feels so cruel.
Kaylita617 Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 @doctormelody same here. No email and anxiously waiting for the mail while checking the Agora portal every couple of hours Maybe some folk get emails if they applied early or have incredible stats? Fingers crossed that the rest of us receive our letters soon and can finally know the decision BCSSW made so we can stop stressing.
Kaylita617 Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 As my anxiety hits the roof.... Has anyone JUST received their acceptance letter in the mail without an email beforehand or noticing changes in their Agora portal?? doctormelody 1

I mean, I’m 99% sure I got rejected, but I would just like to know so I can stop thinking about it...

Additionally, if anyone has been waitlisted and you could tell us the method of notification for that, that would be great. Still nothing in the mail for me today, and they said they sent the decision out on Friday. I’m so so beyond frustrated. Lol.
Patriotsfan17 Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 My agora portal updated this morning with a grad deposit request. No email or letter though. Anyone else get this.

doctormelody Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 Still no letter today. Seriously on the verge of a breakdown.

doctormelody Posted March 30, 2018 Posted March 30, 2018 No letter today... @Patriotsfan17 did you ever get your email?

ngoc9 Posted March 31, 2018 Posted March 31, 2018 I haven’t received my actual acceptance letter in the mail yet. Which I was told would have my scholarship attached (if I received any). I have to give Simmons an answer by Monday. But it seems like I have already made up my mind to go to BC, even before getting the email. Just for so many reasons. So I think Im going to decline my offer at simmons, even though I haven’t seen my package at BC. Even if I don’t get get any scholarship- I’ll be part time so I wouldn’t be living in Boston (not having to get an apartment), which means I would only accept the amount of direct loans I really need to cover classes. My current job will help pay $500 per class (only 2 classes a semester). I feel like I would be okay, financially. Am I making the wrong decision? I need some opinions

Can you figure out how much total debt you would end up with?

I forgot about the whole Jesuit thing for a sec. And thank you. It’s driving me crazy but unless the letter’s been lost in the mail it’ll arrive eventually.

Since I’m part time- I would be charged $1,184 per credit. That’s about ~$77k, not considering if they will charge me any student fees.

You want to do clinical, I assume?

Are you in a position to pay the deposit for Simmons and then see what BC offers you? I’ve heard that they’re usually pretty generous with their packages.
ngoc9 Posted March 31, 2018 Posted March 31, 2018 Update: got my acceptance letter in the mail, with the merit scholarship. They pretty much gave me the same amount of scholarship as Simmons. I am definitely going to commit to BC. doctormelody 1
