This makes me feel so much better now, after getting rejections from Princeton, Yale, and just now from Georgetown, I was beginning to feel really horrible about myself. I'm really happy I got into Tufts, considering I want to major in IR. Thank you everyone for your support, and for those who are still waiting, good luck!</p>

<p>Dear Md.:</p>
<p>Thank you for applying to Tufts University as a candidate for admission to the Class of 2011. The Admissions Committee appreciates the compliment of your interest in Tufts as one of your choices for your undergraduate education.</p>
<p>After a careful review of your academic and personal qualifications, we regret we are unable to offer you admission to the University. This was a particularly difficult decision for us to reach, and I know it will disappoint you. Tufts received a large and talented pool of candidates this year, and competition for the limited number of places in our first-year class was keen. Because of these competitive constraints, the Admissions Committee denied many candidates, like you, who would have added much to our undergraduate community.</p>
<p>Best wishes for a successful and memorable undergraduate experience.</p>

Lee A. Coffin
