What is the expected turnaround time for post-ii decisions? Interviewing at the end of Jan, just curious.
I interviewed yesterday and they told us we should expect to hear back the first week of Feb

Do people know how far interviews are scheduled for? Do we think there will be any more waves of II or is Tufts pretty much done sending II?

Still two dates available in March and one next week (prob b/c someone cancelled). I'd estimate roughly 30-40 IIs left (considering 22 interviewees during my date and that some of these dates are partially filled).

Just to add on to this, I see February 5th available for the Maine Track, so there might also still be some Maine Track interview slots available. Keep the faith!

Interviewed early December for Maine Track -- I wonder why some got the good news but others who interviewed on the same date haven't heard anything? Even if you don't get an A, I'd expect to hear back a deferral or R. Anyone know?

i got the call on monday, but i still haven't received the official email notifying me of acceptance, they said those would be sent out in a few days. maybe once those get sent out, they'll also notify deferrals/rejections?

That makes sense, thanks!
 
Got the call this morning, interviewed early December! Got the acceptance email a few hours later.

edit: sorry this is for Boston Track

Interviewed for Maine track on 12/4 and just got the deferred email. It says in the email that “many applicants are later accepted after being deferred” but I can’t help but feel this isn’t a good sign...

Current Maine Tracker - I interviewed in March, got deferred, got waitlisted after that, and then got accepted off the waitlist. A friend interviewed before me in the same cycle and had a very similar outcome to me. It’s definitely not a death sentence to be deferred!

Has anyone heard anything about if they will be hosting a second (first) look day? I'm sure it's hard to plan for now given how bad the pandemic but just curious

Anyone else sitting in silence for a majority of schools they applied to and are at the point where they just want R's because it seems better than silence😭 Kind of losing hope..
