They told us the ad com was meeting 11/4 and we would hear the following week… unclear if that was this week or next but odd. Is your portal updated too?
Has anyone heard from these interview dats been deferred or rejected?
that's crazy - will they even have time to get through all the applicants? is this how every cycle is?

Who knows, maybe yes maybe no. But I presume at least from other SDN threads that we can at least expect to keep hearing for IIs well into the winter here

When did you interview?

10/23 I think
Wait until later in the cycle when you know which school you will definitely be enrolling in, then follow the instructions your school gives you
Is there an unofficial GroupMe or other type of group chat for accepted students?

There is an official Facebook group made by the school but no group chats. We should make one tho I am def looking to connect with other accepted students
If anyone wants to connect! Tufts University SOM Accepted Students C/O 2029

+1 Deferred Decision :/
II: late October
Do they like letters of interest or updates at this point? what does this mean for odds of admission? Am I toast? This is one of my top choice schools!

Interviewed here today—they said the next round of decisions (which include today’s interviewees) will be sent out before Thanksgiving!

I really want a II from this school but wondering if I should give up on hearing back 🙁 complete 7/9

I was complete 7/19 and still hoping too. From prior cycles it seems like they send II pretty consistently through January so there's still time
Are there any current students on here that would be able to answer what the general consensus is on needing a car during pre-clinical years? and if you do, what is the parking situation like? Thank you!

I lived in Boston for undergrad. The med school is right in downtown Boston and as long as you’re planning on living around the city then you definitely wouldn’t need a car. Parking is also often difficult to find and you’ll likely have to pay for it or go into a garage.
Anyone think there will be some II's today?

What time do decisions usually come out? I know for my interview date 11/6 they said they are most likely answering tomorrow!

Someone on here said 7am was when they got their A email. Not sure what time zone that is though… maybe eastern assuming they are from near the school

i can't comment on needing a car, but parking in boston sucks lol
im not a current student but I know that Tufts is affiliated with many hospitals in and around Boston. Some of those hospitals are difficult to get to via public transport so I would lean more towards needing a car.

At my interview, they said decisions would likely come during Thanksgiving week (M-W), with today being possible but unlikely if they finished early. I feel like it will probably be next week.

how can you see that in cycle track?
Don’t need car first year, second year you most likely need a car but depending on where you’re placed for CAP you might be able to get away without one. Honestly, parking near or at Tufts seems pretty bad. I heard there’s a parking pass system and it’s ~$7-10 per day, but I haven’t really tried myself.
We luckily have a good amount of options when it comes to public transportation in terms of getting to campus and the med center
