[lunase]

Just checked my email from Tufts.
They have given me 7 dates to choose from.

My AADSAS status didnt' change yet for Tufts.

[DentalGrl102]

I got an email also 😀 yay, my first one.

hey i had a question..to ask yall.....

basically im going to finish up my biochemistry degree but i am going to transfer to another institution to obtain my same biochemistry degree. Do I need to tell Tufts that I am transferring to a different college if I am going to still obtain the degree before I come in? Most ppl said that if you are going to obtain the degree dont really tell them b/c it would seem bad if you told them that you are tranferring all of a sudden. Do you think this is fine?

 

[sm1nty]

Yay me too! Was waiting to hear from Tufts! (no change in AADSAS status)

 

[petcat]

Hey folks,
Tufts has not asked me for application fee🙁. Is that weird?
Wow! so many people got interviews already. Jealous!

Did anyone who has received an interview never see a change in status on AADSAS? There is still nothing listed on AADSAS for Tufts (like that they had received my application/under review) and I sent my stuff in a long time ago. Just wondering, because they won't answer any questions if you call the school.
Thanks, and congrats to everyone so far!

I got invited but have nothing on AADSAS. I know some applicants have "under review" but mine never said anything.

When did all of your printouts get mailed out if you don't mind me asking? Congratulations to all of you!

As an update, Tufts now states "Invited for Interview" under my AADSAS status page.

As of now, I'm eagerly waiting on interview from Tufts Dental!!

I'm sure all of you are!
but I'm gettin nervous cause they're not saying anything, and that's usually a good indication that you got rejected!!

dang... only one WEEK left until Dec 1st!!!!

 

[Blando]

congrats to all of you who have gotten interviews so far 🙂 If you have an interview, you're probably going to get an acceptance!

 

[Blando]

dont worry if you haven't heard from tufts yet either, they start interviewing in november

I've heard in the past that those who interview Pre-December have something like an 80% chance of getting in. But the packet they provided us states the numbers are significantly less than that. I don't know, I hope you're right.

 

[lollipop999]

when I was at tufts recently ~ they said something about 60-70% accepted overall after interview..... a bunch waitlisted and put on hold. im sure the numbers before december 1st are going to be slightly higher, im sure this happens at every schools considering all the best apps are early...

 

[lollipop999]

i think the actual # they said was 440 interviewed/ like 290 accepted..... I think that all schools have misleading data. The 440 only includes people who go to the school. im sure that they give out a ton of interviews to ppl in Jan/Feb that decided not to travel all the way to the school.

Makes me feel a bit better...
