They said we'd find out the result in like January right?
Yeah... but they said that last year too and calls went out from Dean Neumeyer the week of Christmas. So it could be Tuesday or January. Regardless, it's time to start taking some Valium.

Sorry if I'm missing something obvious, but if the committee met today, wouldn't we hear back tmrw (Friday)? Regardless, best of luck everyone!! 🙂
Complete 9/14 and still no word...
OOS but have been living in MA for 4 years. Would love to have a shot at Tufts!

I heard back exactly a week after the meeting.
Does tufts send out pre II rejections?
Yes they do
What's funny is that actually give me more anxiety because now I can't assume I got a silent rejection
So you're never stressed but you do have anxiety huh? 😉
It's quite the ironic name lol
Fake it till you make it!
Opinion question... I'm a resident of Maine (school in MA) and applying for the regular track, not Maine track at Tufts... does that seem incongruous? I'm just not sure I want to move back home for a while...
If you have the extra bucks I'd do it to increase your chances. Better to go back to Maine than to not go anywhere.

Accepted to the Maine Track just now!!!!! Dream come true. This is my top choice program. Best Christmas gift ever!!
To those accepted, does your portal get updated as well? (And much congratulations to yall!)

Do most Tufts students have cars? Can you manage without one?
I think on the tour they said it's more necessary for third and fourth year since you'll have some away rotations but first two years you can get by using the bus system
anyone know when interview season ends here?
Any non-Maine track acceptances?
Yup, got the acceptance thru voice mail today! Interviewed dec 4th
Congratulations!! Are you from the east coast by chance getting so nervous over here. I interviewed December 10th and still haven't heard anything (I'm from California).
Thanks! Not originally, but currently living in Boston so maybe that helped?
There are 15 interview days that still have openings, and the last day is March 15th.
I think there were about 25 to 30 people on my interview day, so that leaves quite a lot of open spots for 2016 IIs 🙂
Just got the acceptance call this morning!!! Super excited, definitely my top choice so far. Interviewed 11/24
I wish they'd just get to either interviewing or rejecting me already. All this false hope is ****ing killer
Maine track?

This one was actually for the regular Boston program! I haven't had my interview yet for the Maine track
Accepted! Re-applicant. So excited. Got the call at 5:45am while on my honeymoon in Hawaii.
To everyone still waiting on a II, keep you spirits up. I know the struggle but can certainly say the payoff is there.

Congrats!! When did you interview if you don't mind me asking?
Accepted!!!!! This morning via phone call! Interviewed 12/10! I can barely believe it!!!
Also accepted; this afternoon by phone call. SO PSYCHED! Interviewed 12/3!
Thank you!! 🙂 I interviewed 12/10 also. This is my first acceptance to any school so definitely exciting!
Ugh I feel like one of my interviews went really well and the other one was just terrible, I wonder if they'll balance out favorably.
I felt the same and got in. So it's definitely possible 🙂
For thank you letters, can you just email it to the office of admissions to be forwarded?
has anyone seen the admitted students fb page yet?

When I emailed the admissions office some questions recently after my acceptance they told me that they don't oversee a FB page. Do you know of one that's been set up?
If someone does set one up, please PM the link to me.
It's set up, it's called Tufts University School of Medicine, Class of 2020
For anonymity purposes I'm going to really for a bit before joining that group.
I'm excited for it to get bigger though!
Accepted students here's the link to join the FB page if you're so inclined
