I was accepted into the ASP program at BC. I just signed a lease for a house in Brighton. We will have a room opening up for Fall if you're interested. ngoc9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriotsfan17 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I called them yesterday and they said all applicants will know by next week. I applied with all my stuff on March 6. ngoc9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriotsfan17 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 They also told me that everyone will know by certified mail. If you have any questions, you should call. They are very nice. The lady even looked up my application and said it was under review. ngoc9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYMSW2018 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 So I totally just realized I never submitted my Financial Aid Application to BC... but i did submit my FAFSA. Was I supposed to submit the application before acceptance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is really cutting it close. At this point I'm planning on accepting a different program but am still curious on my acceptances from BC and BU.

Patriotsfan17 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I think it depends who you talk to. Last week I was told email. Yesterday I was told via mail. When I first called early this month and asked if I can apply late, they said that was fine since they had many requests for it. They are open till 4. I would call if you are curious. Just explain the situation. I wish they would just make a post online or something. But I just looked at my agora account again and it still says review. So i don’t know what’s going on with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriotsfan17 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 That’s what the lady told me that it said under review. On the agora portal it says, look forward to reviewing your application. Sorry I said that wrong. doctormelody 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have asked about the notification method but I was all flustered and the lady I talked to didn’t seem too enthusiastic about looking me up... probably she just wanted to go home before the snow got too bad, lol.

Patriotsfan17 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 No. Just that they will let everyone know by next week. I think they are trying to still decide maybe. I’m not sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they mean after the email goes out they will send an official letter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriotsfan17 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I haven’t applied to many grad schools but I’m wondering if I am not hearing stuff back because my GPA is too low maybe? I have a 3.59 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 3.59 I don’t think GPA matters as much as experience in this case. I’ve seen people be admitted to great programs with a lot lower GPA than that.

ngoc9 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I wonder if they’re going to let everyone know throughout the week or send out decisions on a specific day. doctormelody 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
