For those that interviewed recently when did they say you would find out?

Members don't see this ad.
 
Did anyone get an acceptance/waitlist email yet? Are we finding out today or tomorrow?

It would be unfortunate if they are giving out acceptances in february instead of january which would only allow us 15 days instead of 30 to decide on putting down deposit, dont get me wrong acceptance will still be amazing but just something to think about if deciding between multiple schools

I interviewed Jan 19 and they said to expect a decision on the 28th (i.e. today). I'm sure the office is closed for the day by now but I still haven't received any emails. Biting my nails and pulling my hair out as we speak.

Does Tufts give out scholarships of any sorts? I'm excited for my interview this weekend but every time I remind myself of their tuition, my heart sinks..

They offer grants between 4-6k based on your academics and dat score.

They go until March however most of the seats will be taken by then and it'll be for wait list spots. They sent another batch today for the later February spots. I had mine last week of January and they were half full at that time so it has to be close to 3/4 full by now after the early February interviewees get accepted.
 
Interview invite today. App previously on hold until Fall grades were posted.

Just a heads up, there's a hostel literally across the street from Tufts for around $50 a night.
 
Those of you who already interviewed, what time did the day end at? The email says 2, did it go later?

Whoa, 18 a day is more than I thought, especially if there's like 8~10 interview dates each month. Wondering if you have any advice for prepping for the interview! The interview feedback is kind of dated, so I've just been trying to go over general questions and will be worrying myself until my interview is done with next week haha. Were lunch/interviews the last thing of the day? Thanks in advance :)

I know that on February 1st that they had 16 but I think the earlier dates tend to have the bigger groups since everyone is scrambling to get those dates.

As for the interview day itself, RELAX. It is not stressful at all. The faculty and students really put you at ease. They just want to see if you are a good fit for their school. Honestly, this school blew me away. The energy and the vibes I got from the school was so great..I felt like I was living in a dream when I went there for my interview day lol. Your interview will be during lunch time around 11:30-12 and they will start pulling you one by one. After that, they will bring you back to their board room and end the day with a tour of the school which I thought was great. Personally, I feel like I wouldn't have fully focused on the tour since my nerves would have been bad before my personal interview lol. But yeah just be yourself and why you love dentistry. Then, you should be at a good place :)

Hope that helps!

Not to mention, Dr. Kasberg, the associate dean of admissions, is one of the nicest and most genuine people I have ever met. He will definitely put you at ease

Did they let you know how long after the interview you should hear back?
