BU 2012-2013 Applicants Forum

Is it ridiculous for me to call about my app? Last update 1/7, 3.61/166- would be a topchoice

Also applied second day application was available

What other updates have you had?

Complete, and then 12/17, 1/7

Your wait must be excruciating, but you still have two more updates to go, and since it's still technically January, I would wait a couple more weeks before calling. Do you have any C&F issues or Dean's certification?

Congrats to the new admits!

So is it standard to have 4 status date updates? Sent 1/07, complete 1/11, complete 1/28, complete 1/29. That means I'd have 1 more to go?

This over and over. I was going to feel like a real jackass. Now if their friend across the way could speed it up, I can make my east coast trek in peace.

Grats!

Thanks guys, booked my flight from Feb 21-24... Gonna do BU on 21, BC on 22 and then party it up/Sam Adams on Saturday, you guys should meet me out there.

or any other TLS'ers

Is everyone being notified via phone call? I live overseas and I doubt they'll call international so I'm wondering if I'll have to wait til my parents get something in the mail.

[boomlawyered]

4 updates so far... can anyone give me an idea of if this is normal/when I'll hear? 1/7, 1/10, 1/24, and 1/29. thanks!

If the pattern holds, you'll hear today.

thank you, the pattern holds! in via phone call today!

Haven't finalized my dates, obviously If I'm there, I'm down.

Got in today as well. I think I'm still going to BC, but I'm going to head home in February and hit the ASW for both schools.

[postard]

In today!

[teachmehowtoraji]

Just got the call, in!

FWIW, Christine sounds like a lovely person. Soothing voice. She seemed excited about making the call. Voicemail SAVED.

That marks 5pm in Boston. Either BU is working late or I am now the exception to the 4 update rule.

Scratch that? I have a missed call from an unknown Boston number. No voice mail. Called it back. Busy signal.

I am going to take this to mean they are working late!

Is it just me or does the BU Law building kind of look like a housing project?

[bettercallsaul91]

In via phone call around 1:30pm! First acceptance via phone call this cycle! ^^

I was thinking Hollywood Tower of Terror.

Congrats to all recent admits!

[JohnMarshall17]

Withdrawing my acceptance today. Hopefully one of you receives that 75k they just got back! Good luck everyone!

Since there're people who submitted later than me and have gotten in, does this mean I should expect a ding soon? Or was Nov applications all just grouped together. I submitted ~Nov 15. I'm seeing late Nov and even Dec applicants get phone calls.
