Yay everyone! I interviewed & was accepted a few weeks ago. It’s a very chill interview & my impression was that they’re just trying to see if you have conversational skills & want to know how you will handle stress. Definitely come with questions & don’t try and prep too much. I honestly never prepped for any of my interviews that I had this cycle and got into all 3 of them. It’s all about staying calm and giving honest answers! Good luck !!
 
I was put on the interview waitlist, does anyone know how many people are generally on the waitlist and if people end up getting pulled off?

OOS non-trad interview invite! Very excited this is one of my top 2! Very nervous for the interview. Going to have to leave work early to make it on zoom probably going to be a stressful day. Lol
Im also a non-trad! I plan on telling my manager I have a doctors appt so I don’t have to take the whole day off… they’re usually forgiving of that! Haha
 
If anyone has scheduling issues with their interview, message me or contact Patty! I would love to flip flop! I'm on 2/9 but would prefer something before 2/4.
 
Did anyone receive an email at 10 AM EST about a previous interview invite?? Because I never received an official invite but I have this email...I am very confused if I am invited or not? Also, my portal is empty.
 
I'm so confused. I didn't receive any email on Friday about interview invite, but today I received an email from student committee that I'm on the interview invite list? Lol guys, how did you know that you're invited for interview? on the application portal? or did they send out emails to you?
 
I also got the email from the students on admissions this morning but I did receive a formal interview invite on fri as well, I would say if you have an interview the date and time would definitely be on your portal! but that’s really confusing :/

I received an email with subject line "Tufts Interview Invitation" on Friday @ 4:31 PM EST. Maybe it is in your spam?
My portal is different--it shows a couple of videos and my interview time and date.
 
Checked my portal and nothing changed. Just sent out an email to ask about this, thanks a lot for helping out!
 
Yeah, my portal is still the same as before “financial aid application” and what not. And I searched through my spam emails and there’s nothing from Tufts. How strange…

I just emailed. Let’s hope it’s a small error and that we were actually invited 😭😭😭

I saw the email about how they’ve completed deliberations on my app but can’t log in at the moment. But since I haven’t received an interview invite via email I’m assuming that it’s just a rejection. I honestly wish that they would just say it in the email instead of forcing us to just go through one more step…
 
I looked over the interview questions and many were asked why they applied to tufts. Honestly I just applied to most schools on VMCAS to increase my chance of getting in. So for those who got into Tufts already or consider Tufts as your top choices, what are your reasons choosing this school?

I had my interview yesterday morning—the time flies by! I would imagine it’s either accepted/waitlisted at this point, but would love to hear other’s thoughts.

I’m not sure how many people are put on the waitlist but they invite approximately 400 people to interview and only have a class size of 100 which is a 25% of being accepted from the interview.
 
Does anyone have any insight as to how the interview process is? Is it more laidback/ conversational or is it very formal?
I had my interview Monday and it was very relaxed! Much more conversational than any others I’ve had. They did reference my application and other interests heavily so make sure you remember what you put! Good luck!
