Complete 1/4

Let's see if I'm even under review..

Yup...2.5 months at complete. Lol.
Oh, BU. You are only less than Cornell in my book.

Maybe you know that I will withdraw? --> sorry everyone who really wants BU; I'm just being snarky.

WL
3.5/166 retake
Unhappy---BU was my top choice (except for if I out of nowhere got into Cornell or Vanderbilt---though I am sure I'd hate Ithaca)

WL will likely be a death sentence b/c we are cutting class size.

There is a serious gap in logic there. They could be sending out less acceptances. That being said, I consider any WL a rejection in general

Anyone have any idea on the odds of BU matching/coming close to a GW scholarship?

Cupidity · Post by **Cupidity** » Sat Feb 19, 2011 9:30 pm

BU matched my GWU $

JenDarby · Post by **JenDarby** » Sat Feb 19, 2011 9:38 pm

BU was originally one of my top choice. I find myself forgetting I even applied at this point. Complete since 11/23.

I have not gotten the email but it says on the admitted students website:

"Travel Stipends

Boston University School of Law's travel stipend program will reimburse up to $200 for transportation costs incurred to attend a scheduled Preview Day. The program is for those Preview Day attendees traveling over 300 miles and can only be applied toward travel, not food or lodging. BU Law will reimburse you by mailed check upon presentation of ticket receipts. Please note that the number of stipends is limited. To request a travel stipend, please register for a Preview Day and email chrisc@bu.edu with your request and expected travel expenses.
"

So it looks like the stipend is for all admits not just selected ones.

Did BU send out acceptance emails? I only received a phone call which said the admission package was in the mail...

It seems like they send acceptance emails only if you're overseas.

Waitlisted on Friday. Will send LOCI and do some other stuff. Would be interested to hear from anyone with insight on the BU waitlist game.
