Tufts University Class of 2023 ED1 Applicants Thread

Got in Guys!! Crying…

DD accepted. School of Engineering

I GOT IN!!! CONGRATS EVERYONE!!! :slight_smile:

Anyone else deferred?

Denied. Great interview-- told that I was a strong fit, grades were ok, essay was strong, and submitted 3 STEM Maker portfolio supplements as well as 2 music supplements…oh well.

Can you guys post your stats please?

My daghter’s (accepted): highly selective rigorous public school does not calculate GPA but roughly 3.8 with a strong upward trend. Three science APs this year with straight A’s on the first marking period report. 35 ACT. Essays looked solid, one supplemental was very good. Don’t know much about her LORs. No explicit leadership but consistent multi year EC commitments (all four years of high school and even prior to it - sport, writing, volunteering). I think she was a good fit for Tufts (and Tufts for her) because of her personality (which was reflected strongly in her essays and likely through the LOR) and breadth of interests.

Me too! Does anyone know if you can switch to EDII if you were deferred, or if that is even a good idea?

Got rejected. SAT score was low (1240), gpa was a 4.4/overall decent grades, had a great interview w an alumni, pretty wonderful essays/supps, and good ecs but hey, everything happens for a reason kiddos! maybe i’ll end up tranferring too (demonstrated interest is my middle name).

Did it say on anyone’s letter how many ED I applicants there were?

@envisciguy nopes, It didn’t

does Tufts send physical letters to ED applicants or no?

I received a letter approx. 3 days after I found out on my applicant portal :slight_smile:

Received letter today
