I got into Simmons too! Waiting for financial package. I read somewhere that they are really generous with their packages. 

I only applied to BC and Simmons. BC is my top choice though.

I also got into Simmons and am waiting on my financial aid package... the waiting is driving me a little bit crazy, haha.

@doctormelody same! especially when they're only giving us a 4 week window to decide. I just want to hear back from BC and get both financial aid packages.

Yep, same - although I don't really expect to get into BC, I also applied to BU and it would be nice to have options.

[NYMSW2018]

Just to update: Haven't heard back from BC or BU yet. Been refreshing my email crazy every day!

[honeynut]

@Cantaloupe121 have you received your letter in the mail yet? I have not

Hey, just curious, when did you apply to BU? I applied on the deadline (2/15) and I'm scared I'm not gonna hear back until like April now because I have no idea of how long they usually take to get back to people, lol. Did anyone else here also apply to BU?

I applied to BU I believe Feb 8th and BC Feb 2nd. I called BC and they said they’re sending out small batches of decisions every week. I’ve been accepted to UPenn and just want to see my other aid packages before I accept

Gotcha. Thanks for responding. And congrats on UPenn!

@doctormelody I think as long as you applied before the deadline you hear back by the end of this month!

You got into Simmons, too, right? Did you get your financial aid package from them yet? I feel like they're giving me the runaround but maybe I'm just being paranoid.

The only thing I got from Simmons was an e-mail with my merit award, that's it. Did you get something else?

Expand  

No, I didn't even get that!  It's making me think I didn't get any kind of merit award, but if that is the case, I want them to just tell me instead of dragging it out, y'know? They told me to expect something in the mail.

[doctormelody]

Last week when I called them they made it sound like they were still deciding whether I would get a scholarship or not, so I didn't want to put too much pressure on them about it in case that could affect any award I might receive.

I got the e-mail on Saturday. Hopefully they send yours out soon. It didn't specify whether or not I was going to get anything through mail.

Ah okay. Do you mind if I ask when you applied and when you were accepted?

I submitted my application 1/4, but all my materials were all in by 1/10. I got an email on 2/17 that they mailed out my decision, but I got emails days after that I was invited to the Accepted Reception.
