Anyone have already did interview with BU? Does having the chance to interview mean I have good chance to get accepted?
no idea! i can't imagine its a bad thing. what are your numbers?
I am an international applicant so I don't have an UDGPA,and my LSAT score is just at their median.
I remember another person in this thread with no GPA also was asked interview so that's probably why

never heard of interview from BU, and next month is kinda late. Maybe they just want to make sure you speak English well.

hmmm, my full address just popped up under status checker's bio/add/demo section...I could be wrong but I don't recall it being there before. ED deferred to RD pool. Does this mean something or am I reading too much into things? Being on a WL last year that specialized in these kind of mind games, it's probably the latter.

Probably true. I have a friend who is also international applied last year with 175 LSAT, he submitted at November and they noticed him to interview at March.

How many updates have you had so far? Does BU follow the 2-3 update rule too?

I applied on 11/2 I think, right after October scores came back. Complete 11/7 and 12/19 was my first update. I thought I would hear from BU and Fordham before Christmas, but that was probably a little optimistic.

Yeah Fordham seems to be pretty speedy. I didn't go complete there until 11/28 though because it took me a while to realize they were holding my app for my December score and I had to request that they review it with my October score.
