Tufts Class of 2020 RD Applicants

Submitted my app yesterday! Really love my supplement for prompt #2.

yaas i submitted mine i think two days ago? i rly like my supplements too :slight_smile:

Submitting tomorrow morning! What prompt did you guys choose as supplement #3 ?

@eugeinc I chose the “it’s ok to be smart” prompt.

Celebrate the role of sports :slight_smile:

I haven’t actually written it yet, but I think I’m going with “celebrate the role of sports in your life.” I don’t actually play sports, so it’s going to be a funny essay. Hopefully? Really regretting leaving that essay until now lol
My first choice major is international relations, second choice major political science, and third choice major English. I know international relations is probably the most competitive major, so hopefully I have a higher chance at political science or English? we’ll see.

I’m feeling really nervous about my second essay since I rushed that one a little… if anyone feels like reading it hit me up on that PM

Just submitted my app, crossing my fingers now! :slight_smile:

Me too!

Hi there! Applying to SAS for Biochemistry!

Ahh! Now that I’ve finished my application I can’t stand just waiting around for March. Almost every minute I’m checking my application status just to feel like I’m still a part of the process.

anyone have an interview coming up soon?

Hi everyone(: Went to visit Tufts and fell in love with their Human Factor’s Engineering program. Can’t wait until March!

@alexandrasara I’m deciding on whether or not I should interview. Does anyone know how beneficial it is?

@ellesea I’m not sure but I think it helps them see you as an individual and what you’ve been through

The interview is listed as “considered” under the Common Data Set. My guess is it might give you a small boost if you do it, but it’s not really that important.

@gonewiththeair I saw that too but I still don’t know if I should.

do you guys happen to know around what time the decisions will be coming out? the website just says mid-february :slight_smile: thanks!

@driedmangoes I think you’re thinking about ED II- RD is by April 1. It looks like last year RD decisions were released March 30, so we’ll probably hear back in either mid or late March.
@ellesea If you have the time to do an interview and you can do a decent interview, I’d say go for it! If you don’t want to/can’t, I wouldn’t worry too much about it, though.

Application season went by in a blink of the eye! Of course the hardest part is waiting for decisions #:-S but I really hope we’ll all get good news back!
