Update us if it works 😉

My update letter for a new job did nothing for me... it’s been over 2 months since I sent the update too. 🙁

 

[boogiecousins94]

Speaking of updates- sorry if this a stupid question but if you send grades as updates it has to be in the form of an unofficial transcript I'm assuming?

I work full time and am taking an organic synthesis class at night and I already know my grade, but it won't be posted onto a transcript until January 8th it's crazy. I guess I can't update it until then right 🙁 ? it makes my postbac gpa go to a 3.85 so I want it to help somehow!

Unfortunately, I don’t think adcoms accept self-reported grades. Send it when you have the actual official transcript.

When I interviewed at the beginning of November, I thought I was told that decisions would be made at the beginning of December. Does anyone know any more specifics about this?

Thanks fam.

I'm pretty sure they said the admissions committee met 11/21 and decisions would come out the last week of November or the first of December. Anyone else remember hearing that?

Mid-July silence squad as well. Looks like Tufts sent out a big first rejection wave in early December last year... scared I'm in that pile.

I called before break. They haven't sent out rejections and said earliest ones would be first or second week of Dec. Also complete early July sooooo kind of scared 🙁

Congrats! do you mind sharing your stats / complete date?

 

[snickers356]

Has anyone else besides the person above sent an update and then received a II?

 

[optimisticpossum]

I sent in an update first week of September and got an II a short while later. Don't know if the update helped or if they simply got to my file.

I sent an update in September but still nothing lol

 

[Hopeful_MD:)]

Is it far too late to submit an application to Tufts?

 

[nymd22]

I would say you'd have to be a really strong applicant. Their interview season goes until March though so it's not a completely lost cause.

 

[willow84]

I sent an update in late September and nada.

 

[neurophilic]

I sent an update a couple of weeks ago. Haven't heard anything. I'm hoping I wasn't placed in the reject pile and not notified yet. Hopefully they will still take the update into consideration.

 

[snickers356]

I sent one end of Oct and also nothing

 

[willow84]

Seems like my R is imminent...

Me too. Waiting for II that never comes. Let's get over with.

Definitely was told the same thing (that the committee would be meeting the Tuesday before Thanksgiving)! So... what do you think the odds are that we'll be getting the final decisions this week?

(whoops didn't mean to quote post...DELETED)

Maine Track II today! Complete late July, earliest dates in the first week of Jan.

 

[Joe Jerry]

Has anyone who received a Maine track interview also gotten a regular Tufts interview?

Not I... 🙁

 

[nymd22]

[Flosef13]

Nothing yet, also dying inside. I'm banking on hearing tomorrow or Thursday but they said Next week at the latest.

I'm trying not to get my hopes up but it's so difficult! At least we're dying inside together.

 

[nymd22]

Also for anyone who's curious, Tufts has interview days as early as December available, and 6 available days in January so don't lose hope.

You're welcome! I know that the interview season is ending for a lot of schools but that does not seem to be the case for Tufts at all.
