Can you guys log into the BU Application status page? I cant

Regarding commitment I am still very confused. If I go for BU my mba is free. But i will wait for kenan flagler, darden, and georgetown to release their notifications.

In with Full Scholarship. Waiting for decisions from UNC-KF(WL-R2), Kelley and Boston Carroll.

Does BU offers GA/TA to Candidiates?

graduate assistantship / teaching assistantship... universities offer on-campus work to students to earn a small monthly stipend (300-400$ pm) to assist students with their living cost.

Wow, so sad to see that they are basing their scholarships on gmat only. They should focus more on GPA. In my humble opinion, 4 years > 4 hours. #sad #weakschool

Re: Calling all Boston University Applicants Class of 2017 [#permalink]
It seems many guys have received acceptance letters. Congrats! I'm also an round 2 applicant but I haven't received any email from BU after interview. I wrote to the admissions and they replied: "We are completing our review of applications for round 2 this week and expect to release decisions no later than March 6th." I'm from China the maninland. Is there still any chance I can get admitted? Sigh...

1. No they shouldn't. A school shouldn't decide to give you a scholarship based on your scores and scores alone. Irrespective of GPA or GMAT. It should give you a scholarship if you actually deserve it, meaning that if the university sees that you have been a positive force in the world by your social work, co-curricular activities, achievements, scores, a bit of everything.

2. I think BU did exactly that. I have a gmat of measly 710, as compared to some people who have 740, 750 and still dont manage to get a scholarship. (I got full tuition scholarship by the way)

3. You should rethink who deserves to be called weak. A person who is hashtagging a respectable school #weakschool or a school that is actually giving out scholarships left and right to well deserved candidates.

Choose your words wisely.

I think it is safe to say that they sent out all the acceptance letters Monday and then those waitlisted and dinged they just release on the last day....

I understood that the acceptances would be separate as well. I got an email specifically stating admission to the MBA/MS Program.
