I have a question related to the application submission for Tufts. I applied to Tufts through CAAPID this week. I haven’t received any email from Tufts yet. Can I send the documents that need to be send directly to them or do I need to wait for the email?

Thank you in advance for the response.

 

[Dentist84]

Wait for their e.mail.

[Dentist84]

Doesn't matter about completion date. Every year, tufts sends all the interview invites altogether, on single day.

[Dentist84]

All the best to all who got the invites!

 

[Canes0097]

So TUFTS is done sending interviews? They send all invites in one day? How many applicants do they usually invite for interview?

 

[Dental Site]

As Tufts has mentioned on CAAPID that only the applicants who are either US Citizen or permanent resident are eligible to apply to Tufts otherwise the application will not be processed.so my question here is Are you all US Citizen /perm resident?

Yes, and I would assume everyone else is too. It's clearly stated so why would someone waste all the money and time?!

 

[dentistry dream]

So any information would help a lot , as i tried previous forums about tuft but couldnt found any useful info, please share anything would help us. Regards

 

[Dentist84]

Anybody having any idea about how to prepare for the interview at tufts?

 

[Dentist84]

So last year they invited 12 candidates per batch. Don't know what they gonna do this year. And this year they have decreased the number of seats too from 15 to 8-10.
