I'm assuming if I've been deferred decision since october that I've basically been rejected?

Same here … assuming the same thing. When do deferred applicants historically hear back?

[therapy&wellbutrin]

For those that have been deferred, did you send in a letter of interest or any form of update?

 

[pogolego]

In theory, at any moment in time.
Looking at past SDN threads, it looks like deferrals become WL or R in mid-April. And there's wait list movement beginning in early May.

Congrats! What dates are they scheduling interviews for?

 

[prerej]

Has anyone gone from deferral to A yet?

 

[Lithium Carbonate]

Congrats! What dates are they scheduling interviews for?

3/8 and 3/20

 

[pleaseacceptme1]

Completed on 8/8, IS, LM 76. I know some people who submitted before and after me that received pre-ii Rs, and I also see they’ve been actively sending waves of Rs throughout the cycle… but I still haven’t heard anything from them yet :/ I’m wondering if it’s worth sending a letter of interest at this point to help get an II?? It seems like they are interviewing til late March, but given how late it is, would a letter make any difference?

In the same boat

 

[BiomedEGR777]

In the same boat

Anyone have info on if attendance to the equity discussion Zoom next week might have an impact on Adcom decisions?

I doubt they even take attendance

 

[Premedd]

I totally thought it was a decision email for a second when I saw it in my inbox 💀 seems like such a minimal effort thing for us to participate in, so it'd be hard to imagine them changing an application decision based on if a person logs into a zoom meeting IMHO.

 

[neuroticismpremium]

I'm pretty sure they said at my interview that the next adcom meeting is on 3/6 anyway so yeah I highly doubt it has any bearing

 

[Ear_BS]

Just got an interview invite. Wow seems so late in the cycle lol. I think I submitted secondary around august

 

[mynameisFINN]

On my interview day they said they would meet on 3/3 and then the week of 3/6 an announcement would go out

Ah I see, I interviewed 2/27 so that’s probably the discrepancy

 

[nonotes9]

I'm also wondering about financial aid... particularly if anyone has heard about Maine Track scholarships?

 

[maple-leaf]

I'm also wondering about financial aid... particularly if anyone has heard about Maine Track scholarships?

Maine Track scholarships go out around mid-March based off last year’s thread (someone posted on 3/25 that they’d all already been awarded), so it’ll probably be another 2-3 weeks before we hear anything.

 

[SunAndStars0]

Anyone know if Tufts offers a second look day?

[ploguap]

[deleted776417]

Do you mind if I ask what dates are available?

 

[Ear_BS]

Do you mind if I ask what dates are available?

I dont remember as I withdrew my interview. If my memory serves me right, it was March 20th (only 1 date available)

 

[soontobedoc98]

Does anyone know if they are still offering IIs?

 

[neuroticismpremium]

Got the A just now!!! Barring anything crazy I will see y'all in Boston! Interviewed 2/27

 

[Premed Tears]

Just got the A call! Interviewed in Feb. Best of luck to everyone else still waiting to hear back, and congratulations to all my other potential future classmates! 🎉

Wait so if I am reading this correctly, we are not considered for scholarship money unless we submitted financial aid information by January 27th?

That was the priority deadline for students who interviewed prior to Jan 27th. Otherwise, the priority deadline is within two weeks of interviewing. Anyone who interviewed before Jan 27th and applied for FA after that date or applied past two weeks from interviewing is still considered, but on an "if there's money left you can have some, but if not, oh well" basis. This is my understanding, but you should call the office if you want to be sure. I've called with questions before and they are responsive/follow up with any action items if necessary.

 

[premed-99]

Complete in July, still nothing, safe to assume I’ll be rejected soon?

Same here and I've heard nothing. I was hoping I could get something from the Maine track but at this point in the cycle, I think I'm just gonna assume I'm rejected from all schools that haven't interviewed me

 

[prerej]

Has anyone gone from deferred to A post-II?

 

[pogolego]

Has anyone gone from deferred to A post-II?

I've got the same question.
I'm not holding my breath

 

[soontobedoc98]

Pre-II R. Loved this school. Good luck to everyone else

 

[yellowflower89]

Has anyone else gotten a Pre-II R or a II recently? Tufts was my first secondary and I submitted it literally early July and have heard nothing from them in 8 months....

[throwaway198773]

+1. anyone else just love a generic rejection email after paying adcoms 130$ to not speak to you for 250+ days? This process is so wonderful and really makes me feel like a valued human.

Love that I thought cycle was over and am finally enjoying some stress-free life....then Tufts reminds me that I wasn't good enough LOL. This process is truly PAINFUL.
