Were you interviewed at BU and waiting for a decision?


My ONLY email from them was on the day I submitted my application (1/10/21). Nothing since.

Anyone waitlisted? When can I expect to receive a final decision? I have other schools to get back to so just wondering how BU typically responds to its waitlisted students

Yep. Waitlisted. -_-

When is your deadline for the other schools? I read that someone heard back in June from 2020 intake after applying round 2.

Waitlisted.

I sent a reply letting them know I was still interested and asking for feedback.

Also asked if waitlisted applicants ever get the opportunity to be offered scholarship or fellowship. But seems it would be highly unlikely.

Makes sense to be honest- the application was the easiest I've seen for anything ever, with no space for elaboration and my interviewer was just straight poker-face for the duration of the interview.

Hopefully there is some helpful feedback soon.

Waitlisted that too without any interview.
With so many candidates waitlisted with an interview, I wonder why would they even waitlist me.

If you got waitlisted without an interview, I think the next update would be along with the interview invites for the next round. For those who got waitlisted with an interview, they can hear once the acceptance/deposit deadline passes for the admits.

Are you waiting on any other school as well?

I have been waitlisted by one more school. If I have an option, I would prefer BU.

Got it manidix I guess, in that case, you should actively follow up with the adcom on how you can improve your profile by retaking GMAT, etc. Also, reach out to some of the current students and see if you can get some insights or recommendations from them. All the best. Let us know how it goes :)

You should definitely reach out to the admissions office. They're getting a record number of applicants for this program and they might be taking longer than usual to get back to applicants.
