2018-2019 Tufts University

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Deferred! They try to say it's not a waitlist and that they're just comparing you to future interviewees from what I gathered. Guess we'll see
 
For those that were recently deferred, are you Maine track or Boston track?
 
For anyone who has been waitlisted/deferred for a while now, did you receive an email to still fill out their financial aid application? Just dont wanna overthink this is a positive sign

Deferred in November and received the financial aid email a few weeks after :/
 
They didn't say anything about a deposit in the emails? Do you know from past years when they expect admitted students to do this/is it refundable?

They said to expect an email about a deposit in January, but that email never came. I'm sure they're working on it! I'm not sure if it is refundable, but it was for my other school so I'd expect it to be the same for Tufts?

Gotcha. It says online that it is refundable, but I just don't get the point in a $100 refundable deposit. Why not just let us have until April to decide if we are coming and go from there
 
Anyone else who was in the FB group noticing that it is no longer up? Or is that just me...?
 
I am about to withdraw my application from Tufts. Hopefully, the invite I accepted for March 5th goes to one of you.
 
Finally rejected, pre-II. guess this is the end of my hopes of coming back to Boston 🙁

Do you think a deferred applicant's LOI is actually considered? I am not even sure what I can add to my application at this point. Kinda sucks we weren't good enough to be accepted immediately and have been pushed to the side until further notice.
 
Does anyone know what the second look is going to be like? From the email, it feels like a 1 hour reception...

According to last year's application thread, you had the option to choose tours and what not, but the main thing was the reception in the late afternoon. So yes, it would seem like it is indeed just a reception. Maybe a current student can shed some light on this!
 
Anyone care to address why only 15 applicants were deferred last year? Does this even make sense lol
