<p>Congratulations!</p>

<p>Duffman, Congratulations!!! You so deserve it! Tufts is lucky to have you! Best of luck!! :) :) :)</p>

<p>^ Thank you all very much! I am still in shock, it hasn't sunk in yet...</p>

<p>congrats man... u deserve it..</p>

<p>P.S for curiousity (I am RD there), which optional wssay did u write?</p>

<p>^ I wrote the one about the three books you would want in your "library" if you could only have three. I wrote about Sophie's World, Confederacy of Dunces, and Guns, Germs, and Steel</p>

<p>Good luck! Hopefully we'll both be going to Tufts next fall, is it your #1 choice Antarius?</p>

<p>Congratulations! I know how badly you wanted to go there. I had a smile on my face when I scanned the Tufts board and saw that you were in.</p>

<p>Son has applied to Tufts RD and has an interview in late December.</p>

<p>That's great, thank you very much. I hope that your son gets in as well!</p>

<p>^^^Congrats Duffman! I am hoping I can join you with an acceptance in ED II. I wrote about Guns, Germs and Steel also. That is crazy. How else can I show interest? I have visited twice and did the overnight stay, the info session, attended classes, and took the tour. Is there anything else I can do? Tufts will be a reach, but I think I made my application solid. Hopefully my 28 ACT won't hold me back. Congrats again!</p>

<p>brownorbust...^did you have an interview?</p>

<p>congrats duffman, i have seen you here posting and am happy that you got in!</p>
