When will RD Decisions be Released?

<p>I believe they come out tomorrow. A message from the Class of 2015 group was sent confirming this.
<em>Never mind. I’m slow on the uptake =P</em></p>

<p>My TAMS is working, just checked it now to see if my password still worked. Weird. :(</p>

<p>I have this pretty bad feeling I didn’t get in, and even if I did, my family probably won’t be able to afford it anyway. Oh well. C’est la vie.</p>

<p>I didn’t get an email…is that significant??</p>

<p>no one got emails…</p>

<p>I really want to post the message Dan sent to Tufts classo f 2015 group on facebook just because it’s sweet:) Good luck tmr!</p>

<p>Dearest Future Tuftonians,</p>

<p>Maybe you’ve looked around your high school lately, felt the general level of anxiety rising, and wondered to yourself, “Man, what’s everyone so freaked out about?”</p>

<p>Unlike those of you foolish enough to apply ED (I’m kidding: way to be awesome, ED), some people still need to figure out where they’ll be next year. The good news for them: we release decisions tomorrow afternoon (on the East Coast). The good news for you: the 2015 Facebook group is about to explode, so brace yourself for a lot of new friends.</p>

<p>Here’s what I can share with you from my vantage point as an admissions officer.</p>

<p>1) We love you. So much. I got emotional at one point in committee this year thinking about how proud I am as a Tufts alum for your class and what you’ll become. I got misty. I never get misty. Is that weird? Maybe.</p>

<p>2) We were extremely thorough. We read all your essays, we understood that slightly veiled reference to Sherlock Holmes even though you didn’t mention Sherlock Holmes, and we recognized which tour guide you said you liked even though you couldn’t remember her name.</p>

<p>3) We, like you, are really excited for what comes next. I hope you’ll share that excitement with the regular decision admitted students who are still making up their mind, that you’ll encourage them to visit campus again, and that you’ll share with them the pieces that helped you make up <em>your</em> mind so that they can make up <em>their</em> minds.</p>

<p>Tune into the Facebook group tomorrow afternoon/evening to greet the newcomers and get them pumped for a Brown and Blue four years.</p>

<p>Your companion in admissions,</p>

<p>Dan
Tufts class of 2006

<p>So are they definitely coming out today?</p>

<p>oooohhh goooood I wasn’t really nervous at all. I already got into one school with a good scholarship that I’d definitely be happy going to, but Tufts is still my number 1. </p>

<p>But NOW! Now that I know that I will find out whether or not I got in in 9 (!!!) hours is just crazy!!! Not only will I know whether or not I got in, in 9 hours (or actually 11 because I’m also waiting for an Ivy) I’ll know where I’m going to spend the next 4 years of my life. This is just such a nerve-wracking, exciting, crazy, and absolutely terrifying feeling.</p>

<p>I want to be a Jumbo, soooooooo badly!!!</p>

<p>^i’m feeling the exact same way right now and it sucks. I’m so nervous!! I love tufts so much and after two rejections elsewhere, I just feel scared.</p>

<p>Yay! So happy that they’ll be today! Then I’ll know everything by 6pm today.</p>

<p>My TAMS is down :)</p>

<p>Mine is as well… will it be down until they post the decisions?</p>

<p>I just imagined what it’s going to be like tonight when I open my TAMS. Then I started crying. lol. This is just way too nerve-wracking. I love Tufts with all my heart, ever since I set foot on campus this August. Ever since Dan did such an enthusiastic information session, I knew I wanted to spend my college life there.
I know I would be perfectly fine at Northeastern. I really like that school too. Not getting accepted to Tufts would not be the end of the world.
But it just hit me now that after all these months of working on applications and trying to show Tufts about who I am, trying to make them LOVE me and hoping that I might somehow stand out in the application pool, although my stats aren’t 2200+/4.0, hoping that they could picture me there, I’ll finally find out whether it paid off. And it would be so amazing if it actually did.</p>

<p>^^^
I can really identify with how you feel. Tufts has always been a bit of a reach for me because my stats aren’t that wonderful, yet I can’t help myself getting hopeful. I felt like my application and interview were strong, and that I’d really fit there, no matter what SATs I have. I keep imagining how awesome it would be if I got in, but I really shouldn’t think like that. Oh well, four and a half more hours. I’m in CA so I’ll be in class when I find out… good thing I have an IPhone with 3G, haha. I just hope I don’t start crying if I’m rejected or something.</p>

<p>KP42400 - I’ll be in class as well. One of my friends got her Stanford email rejection in class and burst out crying in the middle of the teacher’s lecture… moral of the story: don’t check in class the decision of one of your top schools. Maybe the safeties are ok to check in class, but if Tufts is your top choice, excuse yourself to the bathroom or wait for class to let out before you check. It will let you be dignified about a rejection or acceptance, especially if there are other kids in your class who applied to Tufts.</p>

<p>And the countdown begins.</p>

<p>Who else has been refreshing their tams over and over again? xD</p>
