First rejection! Very expected, but still sad. Boston is amazing! Still, I appreciate BU\'s honesty. Far better than a silent rejection.

Can\'t believe it! My first interview invite. I\'m so excited!
After interviewing I can say that this school was really impressive. Great use of technology and wonderful service opportunities. The curriculum seems awesome, and all of the students really do seem to get along well and generally seem happy. While the school is certainly in a rougher area, if you\'re smart and keep your eyes open then you\'ll be fine.
First acceptance! Very excited. The school has a great energy, and I could see myself there.
