Tufts Picture!

<p>So admissions says that they appreciate a picture that captures your spirit..
Should I send a picture of myself getting pied? It's a picture I really love, but my face isn't really visible (for obvious reasons).</p>

<p>That sounds creative!</p>

<p>I didn't see them ask for that anywhere...?</p>

<p>i think that is a great idea for a picture. I don't think it matters if they can actually see your face; its not really an id picture :) good luck!</p>

<p>I didn't see them ask for a picture anywhere. are you applying with the common app or is there a separate tufts application?</p>

<p>maguni, i think they'd love it, b/c it says a lot about you!</p>

<p>Where does it say something about submitting a picture?</p>

<p>right after the 8th optional question
Completing</a> the Application - Office of Undergraduate Admissions - Tufts University
The Admissions Committee also welcomes a photograph that captures the spirit of your personality and style.</p>

<p>It's kinda odd that they didn't put that on the common app supplement... I never looked at the above mentioned site.</p>

<p>It's on the supplement, but it's after all the optional essays, so it's easy to miss. </p>

<p>I think that picture sounds like a great idea, by the way.</p>

<p>is there some way of sending in a picture online? i don't see any space for it on the supplement.</p>

<p>Wow. I completely missed that. :/ I don't know if I have any especially good pictures of me anyway.</p>

<p>You'd have to mail it in old school. </p>

<p>Don't worry about the picture, Phedre. It's something that can be fun for us (both you and me). And while I think everyone could use a little more fun in the process, your admission isn't going to hinge on a picture.</p>

<p>Yeah, I figured it probably doesn't matter as much in the context of my whole application.</p>

<p>BTW, I just want to comment on how helpful you are Dan. Having an admissions counselor answering questions is so comforting. Applying is sort of a terrifying process and it's really nice to hear from one of the people involved. Thanks for being here!</p>

<p>It's my pleasure! I am (tremendously) biased, but the Tufts board is a great place to be.</p>
