Do I really need a BU Web Account?

Yes, you must have a BU Web Account in order to log in and access your personalized information in the MyBU Applicant Portal. This is not the same as the Apply Web Account you may have used to submit your application online.

I set up my BU Web Account, but I am not able to log in.

Undergraduate applicants to Boston University should begin the process for Undergraduate Admissions outlined at www.bu.edu/apply. As part of that process, undergraduates who apply to Boston University using the Common Application will receive an email with instructions for creating a BU Web Account. Once you have a BU Web Account, you will be able to use it to check the status of your application credentials and your admissions decision through MyBU Applicant Portal. 

• You can reset your password if you forget what it is.
• You can update your account information, such as your email address, online.

How do I get a BU Web Account?

Boston University will send email correspondence to all applicants containing BU Web account set up information. If you do not have the email message or you get a message that your PIN is invalid or has expired, BU Web Account setup information can be sent to you at the email address you provided to Boston University.
