I have been ACed post-interview. I have not filled out the financial aid forms for Tufts, could this be a reason why I am still ACed?

I doubt it. But you might as well turn it in soonish. Their deadline is in little under a month, I think.
 
reluntact2join, i am waiting like you. did you get the e-mail today about updating your info?
 
I believe the deadline is March 13th, and I STRONGLY doubt they would factor that in.

lestrazz, yeah I got the email. Makes me think we could be getting AC emails or acceptance phone calls starting wednesday or thursday. what do you think?

huh you guys were ACed and got an email about updating your contact information?

Also- I cannot imagine whether or not turning in Fin Aid packages would make a difference, because not all people turn them in period, so it wont make a difference. Those are my thoughts...

No, we haven't been ACed (at least not yet, *groan*). Waiting to hear.
 
Has anyone on Maine track been ACed? Or is it just me...lol.
 
Can I just say that Tufts has too many financial aid forms👎 no funnn!

My parents live in a different country, which makes the whole paper work even worse.

I think I have everything together now, though...I think.
 
Chessodoc - I applied Maine Track as well and was ACed early Feb. What about you? When did you interview/hear?

I was thinking the same thing...soo stressful. I guess all we can do is keep our fingers crossed
 
Does Tufts give decisions by e-mail/phone as well, or only through postal mail? Just curious, as I'll be gone on business next week when decisions are supposed to be released (interviewed early Feb).

I got a phone call first.
 
I was ACed via snail mail (Interview mid Sept, ACed mid Oct)

Perhaps we'll find out this week. I was just going by the address update email I received on Monday. It said letters were being "mailed" late this week or early next week (ie not received until next week, at least for me). Maybe if we're lucky we'll be getting a phone call soon...
 
If you were ACed, do they update you after each decision or do they only notify you when a final decision has been made?
 
In the financial aid packet it asks for a copy of your parents home equity statement.

Does anyone know if this can be an informal statement from a site like zillow.com or does it have to be a formal statement from the bank? I called the Fin Aid Office but had to leave a message and I'm hoping to send my packet out today
 
got the call this afternoon...accepted maine track soooo excited!!
 
Congratulations Lestrazz,..... did you apply as a Maine resident (for one of the 20 Maine resident spots)?

Any Maine residents (applying to the Maine Track) who have been on the AC list heard any anything in the last few days?
 
thanks so much! I got the call around 2pm on Friday and I am not a Maine resident but I do go to undergrad in Maine so I'm not sure if that qualifies me for one of the twenty
 
Does anyone know if there are still chances of getting an interview invite or is it pretty much over?

thanks in advance!

Hi dblue,

I just looked at the interview calendar. There are only 2 dates left - March 26 and 31st. I don't know how many spots that is, but I'm guessing there are very few left. Sorry.
 
Man, psyched to hear back this week, its been a month since I interviewed, Feb 3rd. I'm guessing that batch should hear back first week of March?
 
FYI: Tufts is closed today due to a snowstorm. Not sure how that will affect timing of sending out results of the adcom.
 
thanks for the info, reluctant2join. now i won't have to spend all day obsessively checking my e-mail or jumping every time the phone rings.
 
I have been ACed since mid-October... man, this drags on. And I second, has/is anyone rejected?
 
Accept! Monday afternoon voicemail.
 
Did anyone who was accepted to Maine track hear anything about their regular track decision shortly after?
 
Any fellow MD/MPH-ers acceptees on here?
