you have a good profile but it is clearly written on bu website that 100 is the minimum score in toefl. and it is my personal experience that higher score in toefl will get u iv call in other schools also.

I completely agree with u. But before applying to boston I had called up to ask about toefl score but they told me 84 is minimum to apply and 100 being competitive score and moreover they said that they give consider the complete profile not just single criteria. So was thinking of giving part 2 first and toefl again. What do u say ?
 
BU is rolling...if u did not apply early...nt sure of ur chnces...

Mudula, you have good chances. Go ahead and apply. It's the NYU, that says they won't allow any exceptions in case of toefl score. It's clearly written in their CAAPID that they need 100 and no exceptions will be made.
For BU I believe you are good to go.
 
How much time does the caapid takes to verify the application and send the application to BU?
I have submitted the supplemental application fee to BU and submitted caapid application also. But I have not got any mail from BU, stating that they have my applucation.
I just submitted it two days back.
Heres the thing my friend, i had the exact same query with CAAPID. The problem with CAAPID is that they do not verify applications. all they do is forward it to the concerned school.
So i wrote them an email about this very concern.
This was their reply "Verifying tab will remain as is as we do not verify applications. It simply means it was sent to your programs." which means your application has been sent. So the problem is at BU end. I think you should wait a couple of days more (week).

Additionally, you should have received an email from BU confirming the PAYMENT made. (supp application fee).
If you didn't, you should call BU or email them asking about your application status or if there is any additional information they are still looking for.
 
I was also worried but I called them and asked. They said, you can still apply. As they consider lot of other things in your application and not only toefl score.

Hey dentist84, i have a question for you. When does NYU start their application cycle?
 
I am not sure. It will come up on CAAPID as they told me.

This is for BU, not NYU.

Thank you..I have got supplemental mail from BU, but nothing regarding caapid application. I will wait and then call BU.
 
Nyu????
have they started their program again?
what is the latest information about them?
 
One more doubt..
there are schools that say nb1 and 2 both are required for admissions.
there are some schools where one can apply on basis of part 1 and they consider part 2(if provided)
I mean to say that, they do mention on their site that they give consideration to part 2 for eg. Penn and colorado
But BU just states that they need part 1 and mention nothing on part 2....

What are my chances with this :
Nbde part 1
Gpa -3.97
Toefl- 105
4months of assisting in USA
2 months of shadowing in USA
1 year internship
poster presentation
Community service - health education(3 months)
Few CDE programs
 
I submitted my application on May 28. And never got any email of under review. Does that mean, I will not be considered at BU?

Even I submitted on June 4 and supplement fee received notice back from them with a msg saying that they will start close reviewing from August that's it 🙁 after that I didn't receive any email. Is it only with me or anyone else
