Seeing how dates range from July to late Aug (maybe early sep) in no pattern, I'm wondering if Tufts is sending these emails in alphabetical order or something?

I don’t think so because I’m at the end of the alphabet and I got mine early this morning

How are the survivors feeling about their chances of ii’s in the next couple weeks?How are the survivors feeling about their chances of ii’s in the next couple weeks?
As someone complete at mid-august, I am not sure what to expect. Hoping that the ones that survived the R wave were actually selected for the next II wave.

I feel like all IIs at this point are for WL spots :/

Complete late August here, still not feeling great since I get the feeling that the R wave simply hasn't made it to the end of August yet haha

Hey! How's the cost of living/attendance? I like the school but I'm hesitant about the price

Cost of living depends on how far away from the school you live. If you are walking distance (5 min), then rent is ~2000-3000+ for a studio or one bedroom. Price drops with increased distance. There definitely are affordable options, since it is a major metropolitan area. Student dorms used to be open but are now closed off and used as study rooms. Not sure if those are going to be reopened, but are an affordable option as well. If you have a roommate and find a place a bit outside the city, then the price becomes very manageable. The school is pretty good at giving need-based scholarships to cover tuition, which helps if you fall under that category. They also have been giving need-based stipends during COVID, which has been very helpful.

How were you able to find your roommate(s) if you have any? I would prefer to room with other medical students, but not sure how to find them.

I don't know if it's the same at Tufts, but at some schools, there is some document/spreadsheet at second-look where you sign up to find other roommates. The accepted students facebook group will probably have something similar too

When do the facebook groups normally get formed?

Our (m24) facebook page got formed in early Feb of last year. It was a good place to meet future roommates (along with a google sheet that will have housing resources.
