tufts supplemental?

<p>as far as i see, it hasnt been posted on the site yet. they only have a link to the common app. when will it come?</p>

<p>yeah!! It's not online yet!! I was hoping it wasn't just angry at me...
they said September on the website... It's september... :(</p>

<p>ah sept is up now. i had only seem fall '06. thanks</p>

<p>oh, maybe it did say fall? either way, it should be up by now!!</p>

<p>Does anyone know if the Tufts supplement to the Common Application will require additional teacher recommendations, or do they just use the Common App one?</p>

<p>common app ones (pretty sure... we would know for sure if it was actually up)</p>

<p>Its driving me crazy!
I check every day for the supplement but theyre takin their time getting it up.</p>

<p>you know, they cant expect anyone to apply early if its not up by now</p>

<p>I'm sure they'll get it up in time for everyone who wants to apply early (and regular, and early II) to get it done. You can always call and see what's up.</p>

<p>I completely agree with lolabelle- no need to worry because the apps will be up in time. Gosh- she's just so optimistic- I think I will call her "happy lolabelle" haha</p>

<p>Oh, I'm sure that people who want to apply early will... but I think they will lose a lot of people that are on the fence about it because they won't have had time to prepare and deliberate</p>

<p>Last year the tufts supplimental consisted of two short (200 wd.) essays plus another optional essay, and that's all, i think. They might have asked about intended major and AP scores. Definately no additional recs. </p>

<p>I don't know if it's the same this year, but I expect it is. I seriously doubt they require additional information beyond essays.</p>

<p>There is a whole new Tufts supplemental, intended to show the creative side of applicants that a regular application does not show. Google it, it was all over the news -- Tufts it he first school to try to do this.</p>

<p>The usual supplemental form is already up. The new one that tests your creativity is called the Online Supplemental Form and will be up on Sept. 21st. I don't know if it's optional or not, but you should all fill it out, no matter what.</p>

<p>it comes out thurs. i talked to a tufts rep.</p>

<p>oh good... finally :)</p>

<p>Update: The 2006-2007 Online Supplemental Application will be available on Monday, September 25, 2006. </p>

<p>I guess it's been moved back 4 days. Since it's the first time ever that Tufts (or any other school, for that matter) is using this supplemental form to investigate applicants' creativity, they're taking their own sweet time.</p>

<p>Idk, I downloaded it off their website. What exactly is going to be available Monday if I dl the supplemental today?</p>

<p>Ohh nvm. youre talking about the online one right? I have two questions. First off, the printable one is going to be the same as the online one right? Also, if I do my common app online, does it matter how i send the supplemental in?</p>

<p>No, I believe the online one is the one about creativity; a new supplemental Tufts form that has never been used before. If you look at featured discussions above the Tufts forum, that's what the online form is.</p>
