Congrats to all those who have received an acceptance from BU.Will see you all next year 😉(not that we have much interaction per se).For all those waiting for interviews ,just some information based on facts of last year.
1.Interviews go on for some time untill late feb(but may differ year to year).
2.Part1 score is probably the most imp score BUT the very fact that you have an interview with them means that they consider you a good candidate and from there on the interview is what will get you in.
3.All the faculty that interviews new candidates is very friendly and fair.Be honest and enthusiatic about your interview.
4.Some of my classmates received acceptances a week before school started!!!so dont lose hope.
Dr.Ashayeri happens to be a very friendly person and very helpful too.So dont have any biased opinions before you go for the interview.
About looking for accomodation,its a good idea to start looking sometime in feb,if you are really sure about which areas you might be inetrested in,if not then latest by june.My best advice is to stay as close to the school as possible unless you are moving with family ,then your priorities may differ.Most of those who lived far away eventually have moved closer to the school.There is loads of housing in the area,just make sure you start looking early.
I am sure you may loads of questions as the process begins and I will be happy to help ,but I dont log on much (obviously due to our busy schedules,but will probaby loG on for a couple of days this week) .So those of you with any questions post them here so that it can help others as well.
Good luck and god bless.

Hello All:
I received my BU acceptance thru regular mail this saturday. I attended the interview on 27th Oct. Very surprised and pleased to receive the decission so early.

I am not from Boston and dont know much about securing a loan or where to live etc.. I would appreciate if anybody can post such info.

Thanks

CONGRATULATION FOR BOSTON AND UCSF ACCEPTANCE.
If you do not mind can you please share your part 1 score and GPA with us. And at which day you are interviewed and with whom? Actually mine interview was on 27th october and I still did not get anything. Late reply means something negative for BU or you can keep some hope for BU still...I can not understand....

Hi GP,

Thank you for the post. I absolutely agree with you that Dr.Ashayeri is a very kind and considerate person. I like her a lot.

I will enter BU Class 2008. As a female, I want to look for an apt (either a studio for myself or 2 bdr if I can find a right roommate).

I am looking for something as close to classes as possible. Other than Harrison Court and South Block, where else should I look for? I heard it is very difficult to get in to South Block and Harrison.

Also any cafetera I can purchase a meal plan? Is there any affordable way to avoid grocery shopping and cooking? Not that I can't but not sure I will have time to.

One more question about financing. What is the max for federal direct loans? Which of the 3 BU preferred lenders (Access, Key Bank and Terri/BOA) offers the best loan. I am a permenant resident.

Thank you for any input here or you can PM me.


CONGRATULATIONS adoo7
At which day are you interviewed and with whom? This is my request to all guys selected by BU, please post their part 1 score and GPA, so one can have idea to improve their part 1.
Thank you,
KHUS

Hey Khus,
Thanks for your wishes 🙂 . I had my interview at BU on dec 1 2005. I was interviewed by Dr.Nargess Ashayeri. My part 1 score is 95 and gpa is 4.0 .
I Know waiting is painful, but a late reply does not mean rejection always atleast in BU..I have heard of canditates who were informed in march and some even 15 days before the program began....so untill its a "no",,,its always a "yes".
keep your hopes alive , i would like to know your scores too....and don't worry,pray God.
goodluck!!! 👍

Hi ya'll...

Wishing all you BU strugglers a very happy holiday season. My thoughts echo G.P's...so I do not want to repeat all of that.

All i want to add in is--- dress classy. prim and neat. Please dont be shabby, and its going to be cold for a while so stay warm when you arrive. Be confident that you will get in and you WILL get in.

Good luck to all the interviewees and a warm welcome to all the newbies at BU. We'll see ya'll soon.

Happy holidays~
🙂

Thanks..I interviewed on the 17th and got my acceptance on the 2nd of Dec.
I have no idea who in my batch got an acceptance ...92, 3.3., 300.

I think u can contact the admissions office and tell then u r concerned and ask them if they can give u an affirmative this way or that....or when best can they let u know .....I know its irritating but hang on !!!
