Has anyone got the acceptance e-mail after the interview in December from BU recently?!
 
I have two questions.
1) My stats are 88/3.3/105 . Do I stand a chance to get an interview call?
2) Do they call/e-mail/send letter?

Any ideas?
Thanks

Does anyone know, how long does it take to hear back from the university after receiving "Application under Review" e-mail? I got this e-mail on Monday 12/12/2011.
I am going overseas for a month and will return by end of Jan. just confused to what to do now!

it depends, some people hear back from them within a week others within a month. but if you have good stats you should hear from them soon. when did you get your application complete?
 
is BU done with sending interviews ?
 
is BU done with sending interviews ?

anyone read the last year threads?

BU must be closed till Jan 2.
So perhaps they send invites till jan end..or must be done with it.
Anyways ..i feel a sinking feeling
(just my thoughts)

Hi ashgan,
Depending on the information provided in last application cycles, BU starts sending invitations after new year holidays. So in my opinion BU is not done with invitations. Even they have sent invitations in February last year.
I hope everybody here could catch whatever deserves.
 
hi i got a application under review email today but my stats are not good 81/3.6/114 do you ppl think i have a chance? a reply would be greatly appreciated
 
My profile is NBDE Part 1 :96/GPA:4.0

I have not yet taken TOEFL, but planning on taking it on Jan 13th.
I just finished my CAAPID Application to BU.
What are my chances of getting an interview for 2012 admission cycle? Is it too late at this point to get a call ???:(

Hi Sizzler,
Congrat for your Stats! Awesome!
I suggest you call the admissions office and explain them the situation. Ask them for any advice they could provide.
I hope you get this application cycle and try your best to do. Definitely if you could convince them about your TOEFL score not being ready and they give you the chance of providing it later than deadline of Jan.1'st, you'll get an IV for sure.
Best of Luck

Thanks you for the suggestions RamadaRami
I Just got off the phone with the admissions coordinator at Boston.
He said its absolutely necessary to write the TOEFL test to be considered for admission. The admission package is incomplete without it and it will not be considered for admission.
However he asked me to finish the TOEFL test ASAP but before Jan 1st deadline. Im worried beacuse i don't thinks its possible to book a TOEFL exam date by then.
Should I Just Apply and try to Finish my TOEFL as soon as possible or forget about 2012 admission cycle for good?!! Please suggest
 
Does anybody knows till what date BU has already given interview calls?

I suggest you to find a test center and take it as soon as possible. Even if you don feel ready, you should take it very soon because schools are usually strict about deadlines.
Try your best to keep the deadline and apply this year.
I am not sure how many days it takes you to receive your score, or if there is any preliminary report they could provide you at the test center (Because it was not available for me when I took it 1.5 years ago)

Wish you best of luck.
