Hi, so I recently was accepted to attend this years Voices of Tufts program and was wondering who else got accepted!! If possible include where you’re flying in from as well.
Hi @tennisgirl07, I was just accepted into the program as well! I’m flying in from Ohio.
I was accepted! I am from Washington State.
I should have clarified, are you guys attending the Arts and Sciences one or the Engineering one? @math3matical @interstellvr
Engineering. However I have just realized that I may not be able to attend anymore. I have something the afternoon after I would return from Voices and I am worried that my flight will end up getting delayed and I would not be able arrive home on time. I think I am overthinking things. @tennisgirl07
I have made up my mind, I’m going to go to the program @tennisgirl07 Are you in A&S or Engineering?
I think you should do the program! It’ll give you a grasp of what Tufts has to offer you. I’m actually signed up for the Arts and Sciences session.
@tennisgirl07 aw I’m going to the engineering session
Even though we’re going to different sessions, I hope you have fun in the Engineering one! @interstellvr
I guess I’ll see you there! @interstellvr
Going to Arts & Sciences! @interstellvr @tennisgirl07 did you guys select the travel grant option? If so have they contacted you guys yet about flight arrangements? I got my confirmation last Tuesday, but idk if they are waiting to contact all of us at once or what. M from FL btw
@blink24 Yay someone who’s also in the A&S session! I’m from Maine so I’ll be driving down to Tufts. Sorry I’m no help with the flight arrangements aspect.
@tennisgirl07 @blink24 @math3matical @interstellvr
Hi guys, I completed my application but don’t have a result yet.
Can you guys give me your stats so I can see if I have a chance of getting in?
I signed up for the Arts and Sciences.
My stats:
Class Ranking: 1 out of 69
Unweighted GPA: 4.000
Weighted GPA: 5.2889
New SAT: 1410
ACT: 31
@tennisgirl07 @blink24 @math3matical @interstellvr
I just got accepted!
@Shabeezy congrats girl!! I hope to see you there that weekend
@blink24 I requested the travel grant and they sent me my tickets last week. I haven’t heard anything about how I’m getting to the campus though.
@interstellvr just got my tickets today phew! I read on previous threads that they hire like a taxi or car or that circles around to pick up students. We’ll all be arriving around the same time I think
@blink24 @interstellvr
How long after you guys were accepted did they contact you for travel assistance?
I also applied for travel assistance. Thanks
@tennisgirl07
I’m not a girl lol
@tennisgirl07 @blink24 @math3matical @interstellvr
Also, can you guys give me your stats anyway?
Just wondering about the selectivity of this program
@Shabeezy “I’m not a girl” lol that’s awkward haah and I got the acceptance last Tuesday and the travel info today, so exactly a week.
STATS
rank 1/355
gpa 4.74
ACT (they asked for highest scores in each area I think so super score composite is 36)
36 E 35 M 35 R 36 S
My counselor rec was very good I think, and for the 100 words, I wrote about how I’ve never visited a college before (excluding school trips), so this was a special opportunity for me.
I was wondering about selectivity, too. What is the acceptance rate for this?
