<p>Has anyone heard if Tufts is using the waitlist this year, or has anyone gotten off of it themselves?</p>
<p>nope. when are they supposed to reply?
and does anyone know the acceptance rate of their waitlist?
how many ppl are on the waitlist?
haha thx for answering these questions!</p>
<p>it'll be after everyone sends in their deposits.</p>
<p>depends on how many people accept a spot.</p>
<p>yeah I realize that, the deposits were due may 1st, thats why I am asking.</p>
<p>I was notified by the waitlists I was on in very early June.</p>
<p>ok this might sound really stupid, but do you all think its wayyyy too late to write a letter/send my transcript to tufts telling them i want to get off the waitlist? basically, i thought i had no chance and that it wasn't worth it but now i am SERIOUSLY second guessing myself. unless its completely ridiculous i want to send that stuff in this week; the lateness will prob negatively affect me anyway... but is it worth a shot?
(also, i live in the boston area so they would receive my material very quickly)</p>
<p>lol, i think you probably shouldn't, but I may just want to get off the waitlist myself.</p>
<p>WOOOOOO. Just got an e-mail saying I got off the waitlist at 10:15 this morning. See you all next year.</p>
<p>Yay! Congrats!</p>
<p>Wow Tufts used the waitlist this year. We were all afraid that Tufts would overaccept like it did last year and end up with a huge housing shortage.</p>
<p>Congratulations fogdogzz!!!!! See, there is yet hope.</p>
<p>it must be such a relief and excitement!</p>
<p>yeah someone from my school got in off waitlist</p>
<p>congrats! </p>
<p>i wonder how many are originally waitlisted, and how many they took this year...</p>
<p>yay congrats!! out of curiosity, did you do anything to get off the waitlist (send them stuff, contact them, etc?) and if so, what?</p>
<p>great... if people have already gotten off then its definitely too late to send in my stuff (which is what I thought in the first place). ughhhh... i wonder if i'll regret it...</p>
<p>my d got the e-mail this morning that she had been admitted off the wait list. She has a $20,000 merit scholarship from Fordham and had planned to attend. Her interest is pre-med but of course that can change (and probably will). Tufts won't give her any financial aid. What justifies the substantial extra expenditure for us to send here there?</p>
<p>i'd say quality of life and education. Suburb near a city vs. inner-city, also.</p>
<p>my friend is pre-med at Fordham, he had to take about 7 classes this semester and was miserable, for what it's worth. But good luck! Wherever she ends up, she'll be happy.</p>
<p>I got in off the waitlist today!!! I am soooooo excited, Tufts here I come. I emailed my regional representative back and forth several times emphasizing how much I wanted to attend Tufts and that I thought I would be a great addition. It worked I guess.</p>
<p>Yea, I'm real pumped. I wrote a letter saying that if I got in I would go (plus updates and grades), an additional teacher rec, and had a friend call. So I did all the basic things, but nothin over the top. Congrats ISE</p>
<p>wow, i got in off the waitlist today! i sent in a letter of interest soon after i got my waitlist letter from them. i totally didn't expect this, now i have a tough decision to make in a few days!</p>
