Hi! I just received an acceptance letter from Tufts on 11/12 and am really considering it. Does anyone have some insight on the program or living in Boston in general?
Or is anyone planning on going there?

Thanks!!

Hi! I’m waiting to hear back. Did you hear back through mail or email? And did you apply through OTCAS or their school application?
