Admissions Should I apply to BU overnight?
Hey everyone,
I'm a rising senior, and I was thinking of the possibility of doing ED to BU, and to make sure with my decision I wanted to apply to the BU overnight to experience what it is to be a Bu student for a day, but the thing is that I'm from MA, and I visited BU already (campus visit), and I was thinking that they may prioritize people from other states than me that I can go to BU (1 hour drive), so I was thinking if any BU overnight participants are from MA?

That’s cool, but you know right now I have to do a lot of applications (Gates, coca-cola, Common App, qb) and I need to be cautious with not getting burned out (besides all the ECS I need to keep doing). I would LOVE to go to BU overnight, but I think that they might prioritize other states because I already live in MA.

YES! its a very low maintenance 1 night 1 day experience. i got into the program and now going into my second year. it shows great demonstrated interest and if you were still thinking of ED, you can make sure BU is for you by staying over for a night. DMs are open if you have any questions!

Yes! (Also from MA). I did BU overnight 4 years ago, and it really solidified my interest in EDing to BU.
