Merry Christmas Eve everyone! Wondering if anyone has submitted their financial aid forms yet? I could only find the institutional aid application from last cycle on the finaid website, not this cycle and I'm not sure if that's the correct one.

Hi! I actually emailed about this recently, and they said that they’ll be sending out more info and the 2025-26 forms after the new year.

Anyone know if Tuft accepts letter of interest before receiving ii?
Admit.org has a handy feature now that show this info. It looks like tufts take interest and update letter before ii. IMO though I think a letter of interest before ii is silly. They already know you are interested! You went through all the trouble of writing their essays and paying their fees. I think an update letter even if it just update the hours you’ve done in your ecs and any new experiences would benefit your app more. You can include a very short paragraph of interest if you want at the beginning .

Thank you for your advice!!
 
For those submitting pre-ii update letter did you email or just upload to the application portal?
 
For those who interviewed for the Boston track, do you mind sharing your experience? What are the formats and duration of the interviews, and do you know who the interviewers were beforehand? First interview, and super nervous tysm!

when did u get the II?
 
For MSTP interviewees, did everyone receive an email asking to reconfirm your interest in Tufts? It felt a bit weird to receive.
 
Yeah, unfortunately they are done with all interviews for the MSTP. They said so in the email. I'm guessing this might just be a standard email they send to all interviewees to get better yield.

They have a very small MSTP class (4-5) so only had 3 interview days I think - the last one (mine) being two days ago.
 
Husband will be attending Tufts dental this fall, but I have not heard anything (no II). Sent 2 updates at this point. Is there anything I can possibly do? Kinda devastated since my closest offer is 3 hours by plane.
This must be so tough for you! Sending good vibes and a Tufts interview your way. I think you have done all that you can!
 
Quick question for those who are accepted. If I do not plan on getting institutional aid from Tufts, do I still have to fill out CSS and submit my parents W2 + schedules?I only filled out FASFA and I just want to make sure I’m doing everything correctly.

You would only have to fill out the fasfa 🙂
 
is there any hope left to get an ii from here? its my top choice and ive sent an update letter already but wondering if I should send another expressing my interest in this school etc or something? I have very close Boston ties and fit in the schools mission
Same boat here. But I had a friend 2 years ago get interviewed in Feb/March and got accepted so it really aint over until its over
 
I applied to the MSTP program (09/01 C) but didn't receive an II. At this point, should I just withdraw my PhD application so that my file gets reviewed for MD only?
 
Does Tufts review in order? Anyone with a late September or later submission date receive an II?
