Tufts Fall 2015 Transfer Thread

Accepted! Just received an email from Tufts around 3 this afternoon saying there was an update to my application. Best of luck to everyone!

@arr1996 Congrats on your acceptance! Mind sharing stats, where you’re transferring from, and when you submitted your app? :smiley:

Hi! I’m transferring from a state school, and submitted my app the day before it was due (oops)

I think musicforlife32 desired a little more detail than that! :slight_smile:

@musicforlife32 hi sorry! I have a 3.87 college GPA, 4.0 high school, and 34 ACT. My high school extracurriculars were great but my college ones were definitely lacking, so I poured myself into my essays, which (I think) were the match point of my application. Best of luck to you, and everyone else; this process is such a crapshoot, but we’re all near the finish line :slight_smile:

@arr1996 Ah, thanks for the response! I’m getting sooo anxious T.T I just wish we could all find out already…

Wow, I can’t believe people have already started getting acceptances… I know it’s silly but it makes me even more nervous that I haven’t heard anything :frowning:

Anyone else hear back???

wait @arr1996 if you’re applying from a state school why do your CC posts from last year say you got into penn early decision…?

@diana2012 hi! I was accepted to Penn ED but couldn’t go bc of financial reasons

Has anybody that is applying through the REAL program heard back yet? I wonder if the acceptance process is different and/or longer?

has anyone heard back since last wednesday?

My friend got accepted last week, and Tufts asked her to make her decision by May 1st. So i’m guessing that we will hear back Tuesday or Wednesday next week.

wait @lighty they only gave her a week to decide? my BC decision won’t even be back til maybe June 1 according to their website so idk what I would have done in that situation!

I got an email from Tufts Admissions yesterday morning saying there was an update to my application status. I checked the portal and I was accepted. I was surprised I got my decision so early but I guess they’re releasing decisions on a rolling basis. They’re giving me two weeks to confirm my enrollment and send in my deposit, so I have until May 14th (and I’m still waiting to hear back from 3 other schools). @lighty that’s weird that your friend only has one week to make a decision. Good luck to everyone!

when did you have all your application materials submitted???

has everyone who’s gotten a decision gotten one on the same day of the week? I was just reading the Vanderbilt transfer thread out of curiosity and it seems like this year they were releasing them in rolling batches every Monday, with fewer acceptances and more rejections with each passing week

i submitted my application on march 15th @transferyas319 and my recs came in a little later. my transfer midterm report was received on april 14th according to the portal. @diana2012 my decision came on a thursday morning, i have no idea about anyone else though

Just got admitted!!

@disoriented128 CONGRATS! when did you submit your application?
