Same. I picked up a US Certified Mail ticket from the post office today. BU admissions address written on the envelope. Have a blank check ready to go for however much the deposit is. Just get me that damn packet!

I am one of those waitlisted. I went complete on 11/2.

Got my acceptance info today. No scholly info

Word on the street is that it can come later? Also, from what I've heard BU can be quite lenient in negotiating. Can anyone confirm this?

I don't know if lenient is the word. Willing, yes. But I don't know if I got lucky or if they do it commonly. And if you guys have any questions about the school, there are a number of BU students on these forums who would be happy to answer.

So they WL by email now?

I went complete later than you so I have been spared... So far.

Please, please call me (on Monday), BU!

I have realized that I have no clue what my fate will be with BU...I'm below both medians, but only barely 165/3.62 (of course below is below, i suppose), but I actually thought my app was pretty strong for them. Now that I had waited this long, I figured I'd get dinged, but with WLs coming out for people with lower numbers than mine; and I'm not WL'd yet....I really don't know what to think.

$75,000 scholarship. Smiles all around.

Nothing included in mines. Anyone know if any scholarship will always be included in the packet?

Looks like you've been accepted to some really strong schools. Leaning any particular way?

163/3.7 received the packet today... $45,000 over three years. URM-lite (Cuban).

Deposit is sitting in the mailbox!

To bump up my question:

I didn't receive any scholarship with my packet unlike others. Does this mean no scholarship?

Also still waiting. Maybe they will reward our 3 month wait with large scholarships?
