Hi, im interested in attending to Boston College, I live in Puerto Rico. I have two questions: Will it affect in anyway my application if I took Statistics AP instead of Calculus AP? Statistics will help me more in the future as I will like to be a Lawyer and an Accountant. Question # 2: Is affirmative action taken there? in other words, is being Hispanic give me a extra boost? And yes i have an excellent transcript at the moment.

      I sent in everything needed for my application to Boston College, but for some reason on my Agora portal it says I haven't sent in the application fee. I had a college board fee waiver which was accepted by all the other schools I sent it to, and I haven't gotten any notice that it has been declined by BC. I'm worried that since the application deadline is January 1st, that not getting this problem settled might ruin everything. I tried contacting undergrad admissions, but they don't reopen until January 2nd...a day after the deadline. What should I do?

        I've been trying to sign up for mail from BC, but for some reason when I attempt to fill out the form (pdf form) it tells me my birth date is incorrect, therefore I can not get any mail. How can I fix this, should I just email admissions, is it possible to sign up for mail via this website? Thank you!

          I attend Union County Early College. It is a five year program in North Carolina. When I graduate I will receive my high school diploma and my Associates Degree for Science. I would like to know if my credits would transer and if I would actually be a junior. I also want to know if it gives me an edge against other applicants. Thank you very much! -Bailey French

          I was wondering if Boston College superscores the ACT? I have done quite a bit of research and have found pretty mixed results. I hope someone will be able to help me, thanks!
