Boston University Admission Agreement

Boston University Academy students in good academic and disciplinary standing are ensured admission to Boston University with a financial aid package that meets 100% of their calculated need.

How’s that for a perk?

Boston University Academy students must complete an application and submit all required testing in full if they wish to be considered for admission to BU. BUA students who apply to BU will be granted admission to most of BU’s undergraduate 4-year programs if they meet the following criteria:

  • Earn a 3.0 cumulative GPA in academic year University coursework by the time of application
  • Have no grade of D or F in any BUA or University course(s)
  • Have no reportable disciplinary infraction(s)

Students not meeting these benchmarks may still apply to BU and will still be considered for admission, but they will not have the benefit of knowing whether they will be admitted before the standard admission timeline.

NOTE: Programs in The College of Fine Arts require additional review. BUA students are not eligible to apply for the College of General Studies or Metropolitan College.
