Hi, I applied EDII to Tufts and requested an interview as soon as my portal was available. When should I be getting an interview request? I put down a phone number that I no longer have on my application, so I’m worried because maybe they will call that number and think I’m ignoring them, but I had an alternate phone number on my common app and I’ve received all of my interview requests through email so maybe they still need to contact me…
If you’re really worried, you can try emailing Tufts or wait a few more days since ED2 applicants should have already been contacted (most likely, depending on where you live since there might not be enough ppl to interview either).
Also, Tufts contacts their applicants about interviews through email btw.
Hi there!
It seems very likely that you will not get an interview considering that it’s late January already.
However, remember that Interview is TRULY optional for Tufts, so even if you don’t get one, it should not matter at all.
When you do get an interview, Tufts admissions will send you an email that will connect you to the interviewer.
I applied ED, requested an interview, never got one, but still got in. Simply by requesting an interview and applying ED, you have demonstrated your interest.
Good luck and Tufts admissions will follow up with an email soon.
@aegis400 Thanks! Do they send you an email if you requested an interview to tell you that you won’t get one? Should I contact them and ask if I don’t get a request within the next week?
@sciencenerd123 Yes, they will send you an email if you won’t get one, very soon.
I wouldn’t necessarily contact them though.
@aegis400 OK thanks I’d rather not contact them lol. Strange I haven’t received one; a lot of people from my area go to Tufts. I remember when I applied ED to Brown I got an interview request pretty late so fingers crossed.
Still nothing. No email from admissions either. Yikes :/. I know the interview isn’t a huge deal but it’s an opportunity to inject some of your voice into the application one last time and to learn more about Tufts, and I really would’ve valued that opportunity. Oh well.
you really should be fine, IMHO.
Really.
@aegis400 I got that email yesterday! Very relieved because I was afraid that I got a request and it went to spam or something & I didn’t see it. I am way too paranoid lol
I actually hired a consultant who used to be a Tufts interviewer for my daughter. She explained that the interview invitations are released one by one since often there is more demand than interviewers. You should be hearing soon!
