Voices of Tufts Diversity Experience (Oct. 23 - 24, 2014)

<p>Anyone looking to apply to this overnight program in the fall? Just wanting to find others who'll be applying. Where are you from and what are you hoping to study? Any other colleges that you're all applying to?</p>

<p>I’ll be applying! I’m from New York. If I went to Tufts I would probably double major in Human Factors Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering. If you mean applying to ‘diversity experiences’ no, this is my only one.</p>

<p>Glad to meet someone else who’s applying! I’m from Boston, so I’m literally minutes away. I think that I’d major in International Relations and Peace and Justice Studies. And no, I meant colleges literally, but I’m also applying to an overnight at Brandeis University in Waltham.</p>

<p>I already applied and will be going this October. I’m from NJ, and I’m hoping to study engineering.</p>

<p>I’ll be going in October! I’m from Connecticut hoping to major in Biochemistry and minor in Chinese. </p>

<p>I’m excited to go! Got the plane ticket paid and everything. I’m from California (northern- Bay Area) and plan to major in biology. </p>

<p>@melxxr‌ Hope to see you in three weeks, then! I got accepted four days ago. </p>

<p>@theluckylinguist‌ I dont even know what to wear haha. Im so used to California weather (it is 90 degrees today in the middle of October). How warm should I dress when at Tufts? </p>

<p>@melxxr‌ Wow, 90 degrees in October?! Right now in Boston, it is a comfy 55 degrees. And yes, when I say comfy, I mean it - this is pretty good for us thus far. But next week for all we know it could be snowing :slight_smile:
I’d say your best bet is to bring layers - that way, you can never go wrong! Be sure to bring a comfy sweatshirt / sweater that’ll keep you warm. And a rain jacket wouldn’t go amiss - the weather here is extremely unpredictable. As for shoes - you’ll definitely want to go for something weather resistant and waterproof. Boston weather really isn’t that bad (for the most part) but it does take some getting used to. Ask me if you’ve got more questions!!</p>
