<p>I resurrected a Waitlist thread from last year. While it isn’t exactly encouraging, my hope is it helps you do what you need to (if you are interested still interested in Tufts) and how to move forward in as stress-free a way as possible.</p>
<p>Thanks sooooo much for this post. I’m sure you made many waitlisted or denied applicants feel better about themselves. I was denied, and I sure do. All of us appreciate your willingness to help out and answer questions. You always made us feel like you’re on our side, even now when dealing with the sting of rejection. I certainly can’t say the same about most other schools.</p>
<p>Thanks for your time and attention…unfortunately my son was not accepted. This was the last school he heard from and definitely the greatest reach, so while this is disappointing it’s not really surprising. He did get accepted to 4 of the 6 schools he applied to. Of those, two are in the affordability zone and either would be a good solid choice for him in his major.</p>
<p>To others who didn’t get accepted, you will all do just fine wherever you go…it’s all up to you. Just always look forward and keep setting those goals.</p>
<p>I got accepted and I am insanely happy!!! :D</p>
<p>Does anyone know when packages are mailed out? Literally all I want to do right now is read about Tufts but I’m stuck with just the internet right now!! </p>
<p>YAYAYAY and thank you SO much Dan! :D</p>
<p>So grateful for a spot in the class of 2015, Dan! Thanks ad infinitum!</p>
<p>Well, my daughter finally checked and was wait listed. This is the first wait list she actually feels ok about. There were so many incredibly bright and talented people that applied and to be wait listed was still an honor.</p>
<p>This is the only school I got into today, and I knew right when I submitted my Tufts application that this would probably be the school for me! I’m still deciding between Tufts and two other schools (WUSTL and Middlebury) but I’m definitely leaning toward Tufts! I’ve just always loved the school and Boston is a great city and people like Dan prove how wonderful the school is :). And to think my guidance counselor told me not to apply here… what a butthead XD.</p>
<p>Waitlisted. Slightly disappointed, but I have four acceptances and I’m still waiting on a fifth, and have only one rejection. So I’m still ahead : )</p>
<p>Hi Dan,
Do you know what I should do, if I never received my ID number and password in the first place. I was never contacted by Tufts, but received a notification that my common app was successful. Does that mean my application wasn’t evaluated?</p>
<p>^^^ Weird. Not sure what it means - you’ll need to call and find out.</p>
<p>thanks dan for answering all of our questions throughout this entire process! yours, as well as the rest of the committee’s dedication is just another reason why I absolutely cannot wait to be a part of the Tufts community!!</p>
<p>It just kills me to see all these people who got accepted to tufts open threads like “tufts or rice???”. if I had been accepted, my deposit would have been paid at 3:05 (after 5 minutes of screaming and running around the house and dancing and singing and crying). It was such a strange feeling to ge my rejection from tufts. I had kind of been expecting it, I had been telling myself all along that I wouldn’t get in, just so I didn’t get my hopes up. But closing my tams after reading the letter was one of the hardest things ever. Cause I knew I would’t be getting emails the next day about housing and deposits and the biopsychology major. In a way it was like breaking up with someone, or losing a close friend. I still have the habit of logging onto cc and automatically going to he tufts forum. But then I realize… Oh… I don’t belong here anymore (that came out more emo than I intended. Lol)</p>
<p>Don’t get me wrong, it’s not the end of the world for me. I don’t spend all day curled up in a ball, crying over my tufts essays. I am excited about going to northeastern. I found a great roommate, and can’t wait for my first co-op. But it’s still hard to accept that my dream school is now out of the picture.</p>
<p>Heard some negative rumors that tufts does not treat it’s athletic recruits well. How does this work and is it true</p>
<p>All athletic recruits are locked in Lewis Hall’s boiler room 24/7.</p>
<p>Seriously though, what have you heard?</p>
