For your update and LOI, did you just upload a document to the "additional documents" tab in the portal or did you send an email/snail mail?

 

[CarsonWentz4Prez]

Congrats! When did you send the update?

I sent in the update through their portal, I think it's the additional documents tab. I sent the update right before Thanksgiving and the LOI about three weeks before that.

I've been told not to send Pre-interview LOIs but if i got into Tufts I would definitely go, it's my top choice by a long shot. @CarsonWentz4Prez did you just reiterate your love your the school in your LOI?

 

[Nunuxx]

Pre-interview LOIs are not useful. @CarsonWentz4Prez scenario is more likely coincidental or had more to do with their update. If your LOI is a letter of 'interest', well you applied to the school, they know you're interested. If it's a letter of 'intent', that's just silly. You haven't interviewed. You haven't visited the school. There's not much to base your opinion on.

I agree, I don't think sending a letter of interest can hurt you, if it's specific (interest in community clinic, interest in recent SOM publication, etc.)... but odds are this will just help your own personal mental health because you're ~doing something~ more than anything else haha, my update was about recent research stuff, so odds are that definitely played a bigger role, however I am also unsure if @CyrilFiggis has sat on an admissions committee or not because I haven't so I'm just speculating and can make no rock solid recommendation lol

July 18th

 

[tiramisucheese]

Made it through today's blood bath!! I would LOVE to interview at Tufts. Fingers are cautiously crossed, lol.

 

[Welshman]

Hopefully this is positive and it’s not that they just got tired of rejecting us for one day lol

 

[lingmed]

Hopefully this is positive and it’s not that they just got tired of rejecting us for one day lol

Yeah. I survived too. For now...

 

[jdp207]

After the interview, if you were not accepted in the recent wave of acceptances do they tell you whether you were deferred/waitlisted? I interviewed early November for Maine Track, was told they'd get back to us in 2-3 weeks and have heard absolutely nothing. Apparently people some of the people I interviewed with were accepted. It seems strange that I've heard nothing.

I'm in the same boat. I'm definitely feeling like this week will be it, for better or for worse...

I hope we get good news! Though at this this point I'm not so optimistic.
