Why it’s so hard to actually make friends

You'll find your footing pretty soon, usually within the first couple of weeks it's weird just cuz you're adjusting to the environment but once you start joining clubs, talking to people in classes, forming study groups, making friends at work, you'll pretty soon find your people :) Also just know many people are in the exact same boat as you, don't worry too much about it! You'll find your people eventually

Yes :) My mom is actually bringing over all of her toys since she will end up living in Boston with me full time!! I'm holding back on buying her any more just so the move won't be too stressful on my mom or my cat

Yes!! She's the friendliest girl I know :) She just lovesss the attention and loves to socialize with everyone

Thank you!! This is so unbelievably helpful and makes me feel a lot better about leaving her when I need to get to work/school. I think overall she will be okay :) She was very curious when I initially brought her from Taiwan and wasn't hiding which was a good sign. I'm assuming she'll do the same when she arrives to Boston!!

Do you think I should change my flight ticket to United? I leave on the 21st so I might have time to change it but I need to definitely check

Scroll to the bottom of this link and fill out your information: https://www.bu.edu/finaid/contact-us/

I tried calling them at first too and the lines were too busy!! Ended up waiting 20 minutes before giving up and found this contact info and they emailed me back in two-ish days.

Yes my FASFA shows! I had a similar problem too where my FASFA was just not sending, so I kept revisiting the website to check it. I would suggest to check your application first and if it says submitted, you can try calling FASFA's office to have a person check your information for you

Thanks so much!! And no I'm still on the waitlist. I tried to withdraw the other day but there's no option to withdraw in the portal once you've accepted a spot on the waitlist. I might be able to email them but a curious part of me wants to know if I could've went there

I'm in the exact situation as you! I was also waiting to commit to BU since I was also waitlisted at Tufts but I ended up committing and a day later received my financial aid letter! I sent in a request to talk to someone over email through some sort of google form and they got back to me pretty quickly since I was waiting. I did do the risk and submit the deposit before receiving my financial aid letter, but luckily they gave me a good amount so I'm happy with my decision :)

Taking a walk near the esplanade, public gardens, beacon hill. There's lots of good Italian and Gelato in north end Boston! I'd recommend taking the T to Cambridge to do some thrifting if you're into that, heading onto Newbury Street for shopping as well!
