I know it’s early, but I thought I would start a new thread for Regular Decision, class of 2024.
good luck to everyone!
Has anyone had an interview yet?
I got a text message inviting me to do a skype call but it is a little suspicious, the guy doesn’t have my skype ID and I need to initiate the call.
@Jhonny134 _ you should call the AO to see if it’s legit. You don’t want to miss the opportunity if it’s legitimate.
I got an email with a list of dates for an interview with an alumni in my area and I chose one for January 29th from 4-5.
Turns out the interview was legit so I guess I got one. She also made it seem like she had already interview other applicants this year.
I was fortunate to have an in-person interview several weeks ago since I live on the Central Coast of California. The interviewer was a senior and was home on holiday break. Obviously Tufts can’t have students/grads everywhere but it was awesome to sit across the table in a coffee shop instead of on Skype.
hey y’all. on my application portal, it says “awaiting: final transcript and grades.” does everyone have this?
@ouicava yes.
@ouicava yes, it’s at the bottom of the checklist? mine has slightly different wording: “Final Academic Report & Transcript (due 6/26/2020)”
yeah that’s what mine says. i was just wondering. thanks for the replies!
if no one has contacted me for an interview, is this a bad sign? does it mean i will never get an interview?
@ouicava i’m not sure, but interviews are optional anyways so not getting one will not affect your chances of admission 
It’s good that you requested one though
“if no one has contacted me for an interview, is this a bad sign? does it mean i will never get an interview?”
DS was admitted RD last year and is currently a first year student at Tufts. He requested an interview, but never got one, even though we live in a region with plenty of Tufts alumni. I wouldn’t worry about it.
I am having an interview with a Tufts alum in a couple of weeks and am wondering what to expect. Could anyone who has had one provide any insight? Thank you so much
@Singing123 D had interview last week. More conversation style than question and answer. Interviewer had family legacy for generations, so not sure it was a typical interview, as he spent a lot of time talking about his and his family’s experience at Tufts. It lasted an hour and a half, mainly because it ended up being a good conversation. A couple typical questions like “why Tufts”, but that should be expected in any college interview. Overall, it was a rather relaxed environment.
@Singing123 It was definitely the most relaxed out of all of the interviews I have done. My interviewer was short on time so it didn’t last too long (maybe 50 minutes) but it was very conversational. I’d say I talked around 60% of the time and he talked around 40% of the time
Anyone know when decisions come out?
@hrwalle I have April 1 written down, but I’m not sure if the wording was “on April 1” or “by April 1”
