Thank you!

Does anyone know what day the March Ad Com meeting is?

If the last interview date is March 5, then maybe the committee meets the 12th?

 

[FloridaSpaceDoc]

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

 

[edwmrk]

For those that were recently deferred, are you Maine track or Boston track?

 

[Hildace]

Boston

 

[yakarma11]

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 :/

 

[Walter Raleigh]

Boston

Maine.

 

[Detective SnowBucket]

Bawston :/

 

[Pizzafish6871]

Has anyone received an email about submitting a deposit yet?

 

[lalalallala]

Has anyone received an email about submitting a deposit yet?

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?

 

[studentdoctor2040]

Has anyone received an email about submitting a deposit yet?

Haven't received anything aside from the initial offer email. We were supposedly meant to hear about deposit in January.

 

[Pizzafish6871]

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

 

[BANANAGIRL1058]

I contacted the admissions office and they said emails about deposits/committing to enroll will be sent out this week

 

[bostonstrong95]

Does anyone know when the next committee meeting is?

 

[Moose97]

R today. Things aren't looking good this cycle.

 

[applepie1212]

R today. Things aren't looking good this cycle.

Sorry bud :/ Is this pre-interview if you don’t mind me asking?

 

[Moose97]

Sorry bud :/ Is this pre-interview if you don’t mind me asking?

Yes, pre II. My SO also got an R pre-II today. I'm Canadian, so not unexpected.

 

[futurefemaledoc_13]

Anyone else who was in the FB group noticing that it is no longer up? Or is that just me...?

 

[700458]

Is anyone else still hanging on pre-II?

 

[helloppl]

apparently there is an official fb group. but no news on that yet

 

[elastigirl/mollyweasley]

I’ve had no contact as of yet!

Is anyone else still hanging on pre-II?

 

[Ravioliisgreat95]

I think this is the official group:

Log into Facebook | Facebook

 

[Tigriski]

apparently there is an official fb group. but no news on that yet

they said on that facebook page (created by a group of accepted students) that it wasn't official, therefore they were going to take it down and then have someone from Tufts create a new one

 

[studentdoctor2040]

Just received the deposit fee email. Deposit due within 2 weeks of email receipt.

 

[peanutbuttercup24]

Does anyone know when second look is? Sorry if this has already been asked.

[EsseJAre]

I am about to withdraw my application from Tufts. Hopefully, the invite I accepted for March 5th goes to one of you.

 

[700458]

Finally rejected, pre-II. guess this is the end of my hopes of coming back to Boston

 

[elastigirl/mollyweasley]

I’ve had no contact as of yet!

And it’s the pre-II R, OOS. :/

 

[Kycie]

Pre-II Rejection

 

[Walter Raleigh]

@peanutbuttercup24 I see your LizzyM and accepts; you must have quite the compelling story! Mind sharing it?

PM me if you have specific questions, but generally- top undergrad and lots of research/publications.

 

[applepie1212]

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.

 

[helloppl]

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!

 

[helloppl]

Has anyone received financial aid award letter?

 

[applepie1212]

Anyone care to address why only 15 applicants were deferred last year? Does this even make sense lol
