do you think that means if I did not receive an acceptance yesterday, i am rejected or waitlisted?

I agree with B4SS! I believe (I'm basically Mayor of Speculation Town at this point lol) that Tufts could be waiting until after the deposit due date of people who were previously accepted (which is 2/17) to send out the major acceptance wave.
 
I got an "are you still interested" in an interview email last week but have not heard anything after replying. anyone else get one last week and did/did not get an interview
 
for those who've been rejected or waitlisted- does tufts wait a long time before sending you an email or will it be very quick after your interview? would you be able to shed light on specific reasons they rejected or waitlisted you? i have friends who have interviewed and thought it went very well and was shocked to receive a rejection/waitlist. thank you
 
I dreamed I received an invitation from Tufts and I was sad about that because I felt it was too little too late.

woke up and still no interview lol +pity+
 
Those who had an interview on January 28th, have u heard anything back yet? Anyone?
 
Is it possible that they will release decisions tomorrow? Do they only release decisions on Thursday?
 
I’ve heard only Thursdays or even every other Thursday. Also, heard today that deposits are due today for already accepted people, so maybe a couple seats open up, who knows?

All secondhand stuff though, so really... I know nothing.

I’ve heard (secondhand, as B4SS said so I also know nothing) that the committee only meets two Thursdays per month, so we are probably unlikely to hear until next Thursday unfortunately.
 
I saw on the Tufts SDM class of 2023 page that theres 189 members in that group as of now. I've lost all hope as I doubt there is much space left in the class for those of us still waiting to hear back 🙁

A good amount of them are not incoming D1s (probably D2, D3, D4s looking to sublease or help out incoming D1s) and the group is for accepted students so not all of those accepted are going to be attending either. For sure there are some students who will choose Tufts who aren't in the group yet.
The group member number doesn't mean much.

I just got an "are you still interested" email today and responded right away. Have you heard back from them yet?

I didn't hear anything back from them. There was someone who got the same email a week after I did and got an interview on the same day. I don't know if they send this email to everyone. Keep me posted if you or anyone you know gets an invite.

What a bummer. I'll definitely keep you posted. I got the email early this morning and it really got my hopes up but I still haven't heard anything. Please keep me posted as well! 🙂

Back when the first wave of "Are you still interested" emails went out, I got an email asking for my transcripts but I haven't heard anything since.
 
My status changed to “invited to interview” just now. i haven’t received any emails yet tho.. Has this happened to anyone? So excited right now!
 
Does anyone know the Office of Admissions phone number? I can't seem to find it on their website

It's tricky to find. At this point I'm convinced they make it hard to find on purpose so they don't have to deal with phone calls. It'll go straight to voice mail but you can find it herehttp://Contact Us

I didnt get any “are you interested email” so I kind of lost hope since I heard their FB has about 205 members as of now. But no news can still be good news. Thank you Lord~I just got an interview invite this morning!

I don't know that 205 memebers means anything. There are like 278 in the 2022 class.

Enjoy your interview. It was one of my favorite days.

Any tips on getting off the wait list? Does Tufts appreciate letter of intents?

Does anyone know if the curriculum is integrated with the medical school? Also I saw somewhere that clinicals are H/P/F?

As far as I know they changed their curriculum last year -- does anyone know what the feedback has been
 
The curriculum is not integrated with medical students. From my understanding, you don’t take any courses with them and you rotate semesters with the gross anatomy lab, I.e. one semester dental students, next semester medical.

It's called the first day of school.

Also, there are still spots in the class, though they are going fast.

Lol no need to be rude. I was just asking bc other schools have an official Accepted Students Day, so I wanted to make sure I didn’t miss any important emails.

Wasn't being rude, just direct.

You'll get all the info you need, fear not.
