I don't believe that these e-mails correlate with the nature of the news they are giving you. I believe everyone that interviews eventually receives one? Then again, I could be wrong.

I wouldn't worry about it. I didn't receive any kind of update email before I got the acceptance call. They might not send one to Maine Track people for some reason?

congrats! when did you interview?
They claimed during my interview that everyone gets this email, and that it doesn't have any meaning as to whether they're going to accept you or not.
just the one known call so far? getting nervous..

do we know if they call in any particular order (like interview day)? and the calls usually span a couple of days, right?
Do they send an email regarding acceptance before/after they call?
Still hoping for a call!
Congrats to those accepted!!
The call comes first. Dean Neumeyer mentioned in the call that the e-mail/packet would come later on. I think the calls do span a few days based on the previous month's acceptances. Good luck!
Just interviewed at Tufts and I absolutely love the school, program, students, everything 😀 I'm also now interested in their combined degree program for MD/MPH. I know that the application is still open but anyone know how competitive it is?
No need to fret yet! I interviewed very early in the month, but was called on the last day of acceptance calls last time - so there isn't much rhyme or reason to when you will hear within the span.

No call for me yet..Interviewed on Nov 3rd..I dont know what to do...
Nothing dude - keep your head up and your dukes up! Don't stop fighting till you get in somewhere. If this is what you want, it will happen.
Anyone have any idea how many spots there might be left for the Maine Track Program? I'm interviewing the beginning of Feb. I'm guessing there's like, one spot left 🙁 😕
I have no idea how many spots are left, but I think you can rest assured that if they are offering you an interview, you have as good a shot as any interviewee to be accepted. Having said that, you are probably more likely, all other things being equal, to be waitlisted if you interview so late, but if that happens, you still have a fair shot at getting in. I'll bet you half the 2016 Maine track class will have gotten in off the waitlist.
That's good to know! Thanks!

Do we need to update them with fall 2011 grades?
Not really, but if they're good, then obviously it's in your interest to update them.
For all of you still awaiting an invite to interview, don't give up hope! I just got mine this morning for 2/9 and I wasn't complete until mid-November. I'm OOS with a 3.5 gpa and 33R MCAT.
Any tips from those who have already interviewed? Thanks in advance and good luck!

Does anyone know if there anything that is really unique about Tuft's medical curriculum?
Does Tufts not send out any hold or rejections pre-interview invite? Jw since I've been complete since 8/4 and I don't consider myself a very competitive candidate here with a VR=8.
They were one of the schools to begin pioneering the PBL curriculum way back in 1986.
Ok... I'm confused... I got a Tufts financial aid application in the mail today, with no letter explaining whether I was accepted or not. I interviewed 12/8, and haven't received any calls/e-mails... Do they send the financial aid application out to everyone??
Yep. At least everyone that had an interview I think.

Anyone interviewing 1/17? I am and am so excited!
Why? Why Tufts, why? Biggest tease everrrrr
I know. I got waitlisted here 2 years ago, then got that thing, and I didn't even have the heart to fill it out. (Un)fortunately I didn't get in off the waitlist anyway. But everyone should fill it out so that you have the best chance at getting some aid if you get in later or off the waitlist!
My parents intercepted the big envelope and were SO excited for me... until I had to explain that acceptances don't come from the financial aid office haha 🙁
I believe that the dean calls all the accepts personally.
Anyone interviewing tomm? I'm on a bus to Boston!!
Does anyone know when each committee meeting takes place?
Hi! I recently got into both Tufts and UMass and it seems most people end up choosing UMass over Tufts (because of the money). I am wondering if anyone has been in a similar situation and chose Tufts over UMass. Basically, money and location aside, which school is a better choice?
