They scheduled my Boston interview on Jan 20. However, I'm from California and there was a regional interview available in San Francisco on Dec. 16!!!! So obviously, I took the Dec. 16 regional interview.

My question is, does the adcom look at those who went for regional interviews less enthusiastic about their schools?

Also, my interview is so late! Does Boston interview lots of applicants before Dec. 1, or am I one of majority of candidates whos actually interviewing post Dec. 1?

Ackk, I'm sooooo frustrated.
 
WHAT?? They are scheduling plp for Jan already? I haven't even heard from them? Does that mean I have no chance?

I heard about my interview from Boston last October and they had scheduled me for late Jan. I called and had it bumped up to Dec. 3rd.

I would advise every one to call and get an earlier appointment, if possible.

Also, regarding regional interviews, I dont think it would make too much of a difference. If it were me, I would fly to Boston and interview at the school.
 
how did you know about the regional interview? i ask because i applied with them, and i'm in SF, so that would be very convenient for me.

anyone going to be there Oct 14th? According to the Admissions office, this is the first day they are interviewing
 
I got an invite for Nov. 28 a couple of weeks ago, but I opted for the regional interview for March 7

is there another way besides email to check if someone is offered an interview at BU?

I would suggest calling the school. Twice now when I called to make sure the schools have everything they've informed me that I've been invited for an interview, and AADSAS had said nothing about them even recieving my application. So give it a shot
 
I emailed Liane Weber. here is the answer I got:


"Thank you for your interest in Boston University. We have received your application check.
Be sure to check https://aadsas.adea.org/aadsas2006/ for the current status of your application and to check on any application materials sent through AADSAS."

So they are not giving out any information directly to students.

hey does your status say recieved/under review? or does it show nothing at all.
 
If you were invited for an interview, it will say "Invited for Interview" under Status.
 
Good luck to all of you interviewing at BU! I'm a first year here and it's a great school! By the way, don't stress too much about the interview...it's really laid back, they just want to get to know you. 👍

Did anyone have their BU interview already? Any feedback would be helpful and very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
 
I got an invite for the same day. Have you looked at prices to fly up there? The cheapest ticket I could find was $450 because it's right after the Thanksgiving. I called to see if I could change it because a week later they are like $125, but they said they were booked until Feb. The lady on the phone was really rude.

Hmm.. it doesnt seem like anyone has had their BU interview yet... could that be possible?
 
i think they are starting this week, but I am interviewing the same day as you I think- 24th right?
 
I interviewed their Oct 14th (they told us we were the first group to interview for next years class), It was a really great experience. It was very informal and informative, and overall just a great day. Dr. Shaw is a wonderful woman, and I feel lucky that I had the opportunity to speak with her. If you have any more questions I'd be happy to answer, but you're in for a very nice day! Good Luck to you!
 
i have the regional interview in san francisco coming up in december. anyone have any info/advice on regional interviews?
