It is the student\u2019s responsibility to ensure that all required materials have been received by the BU Study Abroad office.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n Once the notification period begins, students with a complete application will receive an admissions decision in two to four weeks<\/strong>. For competitive programs or tracks, BU Study Abroad may, in some cases, place applications on hold until a review of the full applicant pool is completed. We will notify you of your admissions decision via email. The email will include information and resources necessary for the next steps.<\/p>\n If you are a BU student awaiting an admissions decision, you should register for on-campus courses as you normally would do. If you are admitted to a program, BU Study Abroad will adjust your registration and student account accordingly. Fall semester applicants should also proceed with housing selection; you can later transfer your housing deposit to BU Study Abroad to account for the mandatory program deposit required of students who accept an offer of admission to a study abroad program. Please refer to the BU Housing website<\/a> for details about canceling a housing reservation.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n Boston University Study Abroad reserves the right to rescind admission to or continuation in any program if an applicant\u2019s academic or disciplinary record is not satisfactory. Boston University students placed on expulsion, academic suspension, or residence separation are not eligible to participate for the duration of the sanction. Deferred separation status will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Non-Boston University students are expected to verify their eligibility to study abroad with their home institution.<\/p>\n In addition, your Boston University student account must be in good standing. University policy requires the withholding of educational services, including participation in a BU Study Abroad program, from any student whose financial obligations to the University are due and\/or unpaid.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n Boston University\u2019s policies provide for equal opportunity in employment and admission to all programs of the University.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Returning Applicants If you have already begun an application for a BU Study Abroad program, please sign in to return to your application.
