It seems ED applications for selective schools are all up this year. Tufts accepts more than 10% in ED
Great point. I’m asking for around $46,000 in aid, and I’m super worried that that’s going to badly hurt my chances.
Wow, Tufts applications are up? If anything I would think they would stay the same but not rise.
Don’t worry! Tufts may be need-aware but they’re also generous with aid because of that. Everything will work out how it should.
Thanks for the comfort 
. I wish you all luck in this process!
they were my most generous school
What I have heard is that the typical students who would apply EDI to tufts are now applying ED I to ivies due to the test optional policy, and that all those usual ED 1ers are relying on ED II if they don’t make it into the ivies. Don’t know if this is totally true, but it makes sense, in a way.
I’m not sure if tufts in general but Duke and many other top schools are up
Fantastic. So nice to hear. I’ve been feeling like I won’t be competitive in the applicant pool because of how financially needy I am.
they were generous and even increased my aid to cover my medical insurance. good luck. it’s nerve wracking while you wait.
It sure is! Thanks again 
fyi to all…if you get deferred write a LOCI

That’s really interesting and definitely could be true. Where have you heard that? I think it wouldn’t lead to less applications necessarily, but maybe the same amount of applications with fewer of the normal caliber in the ED1 round.
November 15 @7pm. When is yours? Are you the person who said earlier they were planning to potentially ED2 to Tufts?
Sooooo nervous now. Result will be released within30hrs. Wish everyone best luck 
Good luck! I’m totally freaking out. Where are you guys from?
I’m an international student loll. Currently living in Nanjing, China, near Shanghai.

I live in Mass I’m so close to just driving to Tufts right now (I’ve already done that twice this week lol). I just feel like I have to do something sitting and waiting is the worst.
legacy is big!! good luck.
My brother is hoping to apply next year ( he will have me as legacy!!) hope it works.
