Thank you for your interest in an alumni interview with Tufts University. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer you this opportunity. Due to the volume of requests and our alumni volunteer availability, we are unable to guarantee interviews.

Interviews are completely optional at Tufts and many successful applicants never complete one. In our holistic process, we read three essays and at least two letters of recommendation per applicant, in addition to learning about your academic and extracurricular accomplishments. We still have many ways to get to know you through your application.

is this an auto rejection?

I’m realizing now that it didn’t translate well through text

I tried to add the 💀 to show it 😭. My bad

[unborn forum]

I think they do

Then they can truely experience the tufts experience

[small marlin]

[brazen raven]

Why would they word the subject line like that

Do not EVER say “application update” without it being a decision 😭😭

Actual bait

[native owl]

It has to be status update

[manic lava]

It's a likely to be rejected lmaoo

[brazen raven]

Oh hell nah

[gentle latch]

Bro I skimmed through the tufts email at first and thought it was a rejection letter

[fossil current]

anyway when did rd for tufts come last year

[muted pawn]

Scary ass email

[brazen raven]

Mf titled it “application update” and opened with “thank you for submitting an application”

They tryna scare us

[languid roost]

Tufts 😡

[muted pawn]

The could’ve done it in some other way

[bitter torrent]

bro why did they cryptically write that email

[tepid sail]

tuck u tufts

[muted pawn]

Aos just toying with us atp

[languid roost]

They should have given us a decision date

[bitter torrent]

NO FOR REAL

[tepid sail]

whats the point of this email

[remote elm]

the purpose of the email?

Exactly

[bitter torrent]

i lowkey thought they were releasing the rd date

[remote elm]

just to tell us they will tell us the date shortly and scare tf out of us

[neat ore]

tuesday 3/21

[muted pawn]

To scare the living shit out of us it seems

[brazen raven]

Please be next Tuesday

PLEASE

[neat ore]

but they announced 11 days before

last year

on march 10 i think

[muted pawn]

Same

[bitter torrent]

i was about to go to a corner in my school and open it

[fossil current]

they sent that email so they could lurk this chat fr

[bitter torrent]

i was so scared

[cyan falcon]

SAME LMAO

[silent halo]

guys that email scared me so bad

[scarlet torrent]

wait so

when do you think the offical date is

😭

[foggy galleon]

my heart literally stopped

[cyan falcon]

i think its next friday

like the 22nd

[keen igloo]

Like Duke app checklist gone

[native owl]

Final transcript disappeared from my checklist…

[cyan falcon]

oh

[foggy galleon]

yup, endgame time

no

no portal astrology

[native owl]

Oh nvm, it is financial aid checklist

[foggy galleon]

fyi, colleges remove checklists during decision season anyhow

especially when they're loading up decisions

[scarlet torrent]

THE WAY I JUST CHECKED TOO

[foggy galleon]

takes up unnecessary bandwith when thousands r gonna open the application portal

[scarlet torrent]

LOL

[cyan falcon]

i submitted a 23 page research paper and 10 minutes of music as part of my portfolio 💀

[native owl]

But i have some pending fin aid docs

[cyan falcon]

hopefully they actually looked at atleast a bit of either

[native owl]

I didnt submit any…

[scarlet torrent]

me either...

[cyan falcon]

its fine

its optional

[scarlet torrent]

i just applied

[cyan falcon]

like truly optional not like an optional supplemental

[native owl]

I play piano, but i have recs and awards related to it

[cyan falcon]

even i submitted my portfolio late on their portal 😭

[scarlet torrent]

tufts does yield protection

too

[native owl]

Rlly?

[scarlet torrent]

so im like

yeah

[native owl]

Ahhahaah

when does tufts come out

[native owl]

Next weekish

Not today fr

Not this week ig

[scarlet torrent]

so if u ed'ed to tufts u have a higher chance

[native owl]

Ed for tufts 💀

NYU ed1 waitlisted me along with ed2 neu rejection

[fossil current]

oof

[neat ore]

what's wrong with tufts ed?

[cyan falcon]

fr

tufts is a good school

[neat ore]

it could increase your chance in the ED rounds...i know they responded to one of my friends who was deferred and said, in regards to the regular decision round, that them applying ED would "be considered."

[cyan falcon]

neu ed 💀

[native owl]

I mean, if it is ur dream school then go ahead, but i d consider another college if u dont have a dream school

[scarlet torrent]

considering their yield protection eding prob holds some weight

[native owl]

I rlly wanted to study there

[scarlet torrent]

especially if u have a cracked application too

[native owl]

There was a reason

[neat ore]

it definitely does. yield protection is also called "tufts syndrome" haha

[cyan falcon]

ofc

if u ED'd

there should be

[native owl]

im surprised i got waitlisted from neu since i didnt do my srar

[cyan falcon]

i heard somewhere tufts basically invented yield prot

[neat ore]

and some people have the same reason for tufts as you did for neu!

[cyan falcon]

but i might be wrong

[scarlet torrent]

i applied to tufts bec i really like the environment

[neat ore]

yeah they're credited with starting it

and applicant's interest is still listed as considered on their cds

[cyan falcon]

right

[cyan falcon]

hopefully my portfolio shows interest

i shoulda sent the AOs an email

[scarlet torrent]

students are silly goofy and down to earth while secretly being academic nukes

[cyan falcon]

FUCK

[neat ore]

your portfolio, or virtual tours, webinars, etc.

AOs dont want emails with no purpose

[scarlet torrent]

did yuo guys send thank you notes to ur interviewers

[neat ore]

they know you're doing it to get your name on their screen

[neat ore]

yes!

[cyan falcon]

i was thinking maybe a question + im interested af in ur school type email

shoulda done it

I DIDNT EVEN INTERVIEW BRO

[native owl]

i lowkey wish i applied to more boston schools

[scarlet torrent]

my interview recently moved to my state and during our converstaion we were talking abt fav food and i recommended him a restaurant in the thank you note 😭

[native owl]

i only applied to harvard and neu

[scarlet torrent]

i only applied to tufts so u already did better than me

[cyan falcon]

i did a ton of boston schools

neu bc bu tufts

[native owl]

i didnt even finish my neu application ngl

so i technically only completed on boston school's app

[scarlet torrent]

😭

[cyan falcon]

why 😭

[past river]

I started shaking when i got that dumb email bc i thought it was out

bffr

[native owl]

i didnt wanna go

but i fot a decision still lmao

[cyan falcon]

fair enough

[foggy galleon]

my heart stopped

[cyan falcon]

LMAO

[foggy galleon]

and then i read it and thought the AOs were mean af

[cyan falcon]

it was such a useless email

[brazen raven]

Chat

Are we getting in

[cyan falcon]

y

[bitter torrent]

yes

best wishes to everyone

[stray tiger]

i think itll be

the 19 or 26

because they prefer tuesdays

, historically

[neat ore]

hm

let’s take a look

3/21
3/29
3/30
3/26

i think the 26th

[stray tiger]

me 2!

[coral star]

bro

they sent “status update” email and i almost had a heart attack lmao

[tepid nexus]

tufts just keeps sending useless emails to give us all heart attacks

[unborn forum]

tufts

[pliant pumice]

i gotta know who is still trying to submit additional materials in mid-march

[wind pike]

That time they sent applicants a puzzle while Ed ppl were stressing ….

[small marlin]

Tufts does a little trolling 🐘

[forest sparrow]

i did that puzzle while procrastinating my other applications 🤩

[merry stream]

no i didn't get one either

[merry stream]

LMAOOOO

[merry stream]

random tufts student told me its tmmrw

not reliable source

[merry stream]

holy shit what did u research

[merry stream]

u don't need to, i didn't lol

i don't think tufts does yield protection anymore

maybe in the past

honestly maybe i shouldn't speak to this cuz im just a random high schooler

i was just saying cuz their avg sat seems pretty high

[cyan falcon]

academic music paper

[merry stream]

damn respect

are u applying for mfa?

sorry if u said in the chat i just skimmed

[sweet briar]

Usually not on Fridays

I don’t think they’re right

[merry stream]

ok

yeah unless they work in admissions i have no clue how they'd know

[sweet briar]

True

[unborn forum]

Its true

its coming tomrrow

i work in admissions

[past river]

is that why the checklist is gone?

would they usually get rid of it earlier or right before decisions are released

[wind pike]

No that’s because the squirrels hacked into the portals and they’ve invaded the office

🐿️🐿️🐿️🐿️

[rapid needle]

are you joking or being serious?

[scarlet torrent]

Me too

[scarlet torrent]

Please dont scare me like this 😭

[small marlin]

As someone who doesn't work in admisisons, I can confirm I have no idea what's going on

[scarlet torrent]

There’s no way tufts will drop like that

[small marlin]

No I seriously doubt it

They said they would announce when the deciisons will come out

They have yet to do so

[merry stream]

omg i loved the squirrel lore

[misty saddle]

Is the withdraw option gone?

[remote elm]

I still have it

At the very end

[cyan falcon]

nah 💀

the college

[scarlet torrent]

hi guys so i realized i spelt tufts as tuft in my college essay so it's prob over

[wind pike]

Auto rejection

[scarlet torrent]

no legit

the name was even in the prompt

um

at this point

i can only pray

LOL

ok this is actually frustrating how did i manage to do that

ima hope they like my other essays ha ha ha ha :D

[merry stream]

nah i fucked up a school's name and still got in. i think it just depends on if they notice it but i think its a super common mispelling

also if anyone here is tufts '28 hmu if we haven't talked already lol

[coral star]

wait it’s coming today?

[pliant pumice]

wdym

[cyan falcon]

nah

[stray tiger]

most likely the 26th, the 19th if we are lucky

it was tuesday, the 21st last year

so 40% 19, and 40% the 26th, 20% i have no clue

[merry stream]

probably not

[sharp dune]

tuff

[scarlet torrent]

LMFAO

I have no expectations now

[unborn forum]

[neat ore]

[scarlet torrent]

i was reminded of the reddit dude who almost kissed his yale interviewer

[neat ore]

haha i’m pretty sure that was a joke

[small marlin]

Bruh when are they announcing it

I think the decision will be Friday

[stray tiger]

it’s been a tuesday for the last couple years

[wind pike]

im going to place my bet on thursday

[neat ore]

i’m thinking tues 3/26

ooh this is exciting

[sweet briar]

That’s when it’ll probably be

[flint haven]

pls let it be tues 3/19

[scarlet torrent]

i would be so happy if it was

i just want to know

the sonner the better

[wind pike]

wait actually it cant be thursday cuz that's ivy day

[stiff temple]

[manic lava]

Application checklist has disappeared from portal 💀

[river kite]

[neat ore]

[manic lava]

I checked it yesterday, they were there

[stray tiger]

prolly the 26th

[languid roost]

tufts tmr?

[brazen raven]

Inshallah

[neat ore]

no way!!

[languid roost]

why not

[neat ore]

they usually announce

last year like 10 days before

[languid roost]

ohh

[languid roost]

well

it's less then 10 days till march 26th too

soooo

[neat ore]

that’s true

[languid roost]

tufts might want to just drop this year

[neat ore]

maybe

they’re starting anew trend

a new*

[languid roost]

fr

[neat ore]

that would be exciting

or maybe tomorrow they’ll announce tue 3/26 lol

[wind pike]

ngl regular decisions seems to be finishing soon

i finally got a reply to my email i sent a month ago and they sent out the student programming list thingy today

[neat ore]

so acc maybe tomorrow??

i don’t know it’s so early for them!!

i’m still betting on 3/26

but who knows 🤷‍♀️ 🤫

[wind pike]

nah it cant be as easrly as tmrw

thing is, tufts sent the ed decision notification two days before they released

this thursday is still possible

of waiting?

[neat ore]

maybe but when was the last time they did a non-Tuesdsy

[wind pike]

this year's ed decisions

were on a thursday

ill beg the elephant statues in my house for you

[neat ore]

but

were previous year ED decisions on Tuesdays

🤔

[wind pike]

ummm idk

[neat ore]

this is a science!!

i’m acting like we won’t know in prob a few days 😭

[wind pike]

decisions day astrology

[neat ore]

the stress gets to you

[wind pike]

yeah i get you

try to focus on school for now

[neat ore]

i’m acc not in school rn

which gives me a lot of time to just think haha

[merry stream]

its the squirrels

they've invaded

[small marlin]

Tufts is scaring me with that 10% acceptance rate

[merry stream]

hey man

in my experience

acceptance rates can be really misleading

u never know how you compare to most of the applicant pool, u might be in the top 5 percent for one college and in the top 20 for another

just ignore the number and keep hope lol

[small marlin]

Very wise words

Maybe even too wise

[brazen raven]

I like the pfp

Are u committed to tufts

[merry stream]

yesss

[merry stream]

LMAOOO

[merry stream]

sorry meant to reply to this

i am committed yeah

[merry stream]

congrats on cmu thats huge

[brazen raven]

Man thank you but the school isn’t really for me

[merry stream]

damn

[brazen raven]

I’m looking forward to tufts for sure

[merry stream]

are u cs?

[brazen raven]

Nah haha

[merry stream]

wait what did u ed?

[brazen raven]

I’m looking to do stats/data sci

[brazen raven]

Nope

I’m looking forward to hearing back from tufts

Lol

[merry stream]

oh wait so you haven't committed to cmu?

sorry lol was just confused by ur username

[brazen raven]

Nah not yet, but very likely, if I don’t get any more good news in the next two weeks

[merry stream]

im sure cmu is still dominant in data sci

[brazen raven]

They’re good but I just don’t really vibe with the school

[merry stream]

honestly i rlly wanted cmu cuz of their comp bio program but i just chose tufts over cmu to ed lol

[brazen raven]

They’ve got a competitive and almost toxic culture

[merry stream]

yeah

[brazen raven]

The campus is insanely small for the population

[merry stream]

it looks rlly depressing

oh rlly?

[brazen raven]

Yes

It for sure gets crowded at times

That’s my number 1 gripe

[merry stream]

damn lowk i think thats a lot of colleges rn

overadmitting seems to be common

[brazen raven]

Also it just has a shit ton of Asians and Chinese students, and me being one myself, I’m tryna get away from a school with a huge Asian population lol

Just to experience something new ykwim

[merry stream]

at least ik a lot of people at neu who talk about how crowded it is

[brazen raven]

Yup same problem

[merry stream]

ah

gl for tufts!

[brazen raven]

What are you gonna do at tufts

(Oh also I like Boston more than Pittsburgh lol)

[merry stream]

yeah boston seems better

[merry stream]

not 100 percent sure but considering between bio + cs, bme, and the likes

[brazen raven]

That’s dope, are u premed

[merry stream]

as of now, yeah, but im not sure if ill commit

[brazen raven]

Are you admitted to arts&science or engineering?

Do you happen to know if it’s easy switching to school of engi if I get accepted to A&S?

[merry stream]

afaik, its not as easy as clicking a button. you need to switch early and you need to take the right courses your first semester and get decent grades. but its def not as hard as some state schools make it tho

im not a reliable source for that tho

i thnk there are some tufts students here who could be of more help

[brazen raven]

Gotcha

[brazen raven]

Wait can I ask what major ur admitted to

[merry stream]

yeah cs

[brazen raven]

In arts and science?

ED1 or ED2?

[merry stream]

a & s, ed1

[merry stream]

check dms

[sweet briar]

they dont admit by major

[merry stream]

^this also

[scarlet torrent]

Tufts PLEWSE

[languid roost]

[unborn forum]

Sorry guys but mine was great

[scarlet torrent]

[languid roost]

Have you gotten in anywhere?

[scarlet torrent]

All my safeties and a lac

[small marlin]

I got waitlisted from Grinnell and a safety so I'm not sure waht to amke of the sitaution, personally

[unborn forum]

waitlisted from a safety

vro im sorry bro

[scarlet torrent]

It’s alright, crossing corn maiz dream out of your books isnt too bad 😭

[languid roost]

That’s still great!!

[scarlet torrent]

Yield protection for that safety though

It’s them not u

[unborn forum]

it might be u bro 😭🙏

bless up

[small marlin]

Could be. Also a waitlist from Case Western Reserve, which isn't really a safety. I am literally just a borderline applicant it seems lol

[unborn forum]

what school was the safety

[small marlin]

Connecitcut College

[unborn forum]

hope that wasnt ur only safety bro

[small marlin]

nah I got into other schools, but it REALLY tanked my confidence

[scarlet torrent]

Yeah but i would love to go out of state to a nice city and escape my Asian parents

🥹

[languid roost]

Tufts will take you 🙏

[unborn forum]

I mean 38% aint free

[scarlet torrent]

Someone with cracked stats got rejected from that school so ill bet on yield protection

[languid roost]

My dad is slowly telling me what schools I can and can’t go to and he crossed tufts off the list today 💀 like I’m even getting in

[scarlet torrent]

Im praying 🥹

[unborn forum]

maybe

but i would never call 38% a safety

[languid roost]

^

[small marlin]

Right, there can definitely be suprises, but I mean I have a 1450 SAT

Not like a 1580 wizard

I was competitive, but I'm not sure about yield protection

[scarlet torrent]

Unless ur from that state bec ik ut austin is a safety for a lot of people in texas

Which is insane

💀

[unborn forum]

i mean thats a public school

lil diff

[languid roost]

Autoadmit is different

[scarlet torrent]

That’s true but 10% acceptance rate if ur not from texas and getting auto admitted

Kinda jealous

😭

[small marlin]

So that's why so many people have been moving to Texas

[scarlet torrent]

Oh they hate cali

So that too

[languid roost]

No it’s cause ^ and it’s cheaper in Texas

[scarlet torrent]

And bigger too

[languid roost]

They’re missing out ucla >>> ut

[scarlet torrent]

Is ucla a good school

Ive heard it being a party school

Never really abt academics

[languid roost]

Yes

[languid roost]

It’s a really good school academically but they balance their lives

UCSB is the real party school

[small marlin]

CMU:

[languid roost]

Cmu doesn’t get it

[scarlet torrent]

that's fair

now i remember that the social life is pretty dead at tufts

[small marlin]

Yeah but you'll be a Jumbo

[scarlet torrent]

true

cant complain

[languid roost]

Oh…

Go bruins then 😭

[merry stream]

mine was very basic dw

[sweet briar]

the only plus of tufts is you can party at anyother school

harvard, neu, bu, bc

idk how their party scenese are tho

bu is a good party school

[merry stream]

well isn't mit pretty ppular?

[sweet briar]

with parties? no clue

[merry stream]

yeah

idk just heart stuff about their frats being popular for all boston schools

[unborn forum]

yea

[coral star]

anyone thinking it’ll come out today?

[neat ore]

probably no

they don’t often just release without an announcement

i assume we’ll hear today about a date… maybe next tuesday?

that’s only my guess though :)

[coral star]

oh alright

im nervous

[merry stream]

they'll prob do the same thing for ed and announce 2 days before

[neat ore]

yeah it’s stressful especially when they keep us on our toes like this

just try to distract yourself with a hobby or school!

it’ll be okay :)

[merry stream]

i feel like they honestly don't know when they'll release

[coral star]

ty

[scarlet torrent]

the wait continues

[merry stream]

y'all should scroll back in the tufts subreddit and find the squirrel lore

it helped us with our ed wait lol

[neat ore]

https://now.tufts.edu/2024/01/29/undergraduate-applications-continue-grow-geographical-diversity-expands#:~:text=Applications to the undergraduate Class,percent increase over last year.

[neat ore]

34,400

a 1% increase from last year!

[scarlet torrent]

that's not bad

now how many people are they going to take

[neat ore]

let's check their cds shall we

[scarlet torrent]

yes

[neat ore]

3566
3381

last two years

[scarlet torrent]

holy crap

then it's prb going to be 3.1 this year

[neat ore]

wait no

[scarlet torrent]

looking at that trend

[neat ore]

wiat sorry yes

3566 was 2021-2022
3381 was 2022-2023

[scarlet torrent]

rewhjbrgkjnfdsk

[neat ore]

but you cant come up with a trend from two years

[scarlet torrent]

im just delulu

maybe theyll go back to 3.5k

but i heard they did over admit during 2021-22

[tender ginkgo]

Gon get some back to back rejections

[neat ore]

they admitted 3770 the year before

so maybe yield is going up(??)

[scarlet torrent]

no

it means

3.7k was 2020-21

and year by year they admited less

i wish it was like that

they have a dorm crisis

[neat ore]

no sorry i meant the year before 2021-2022

[scarlet torrent]

so i expect this year to be low 3.1k

[neat ore]

so 2020-2021

[scarlet torrent]

but damn what could've been

[languid roost]

Oh that’s sad

[rapid needle]

Have they said how many people they accepted in the ED rounds yet?

[past river]

Why are all my top choices coming out this week

this is not okay

[umbral kite]

[umbral kite]

https://www.reddit.com/r/SnooRoartracker/comments/1bis17f/top_proof_2786/

LMFAOO HOW DO THEY KEEP FINDING HIS ALTS

IM DEADDD

WHY ARE THERE PEOPLE DEDICATED TO THIS

😭

LMFAOOOOO

[stoic sequoia]

hes posting the same stuff over and over again 😭

[sweet briar]

Yea I didn’t get this lore

[umbral kite]

💀

[umbral kite]

LMFAOOOO

omg bro

he needs to get a grip

[stoic sequoia]

they just need to ban anyone in the la are from using reddit

otherwise theres no stopping him

[sweet briar]

I’ve never seen this chat this active

Wow

And it’s only 2 ppl

[stoic sequoia]

even then hes probably paying for some vpn 😂

[umbral kite]

bc tufts is mid

[stoic sequoia]

true

[umbral kite]

/s

[umbral kite]

its not bad its a good school

campus is eh imho

[stoic sequoia]

yeah its good i just dont think their location is great tho

[brazen raven]

Tufts has hella baddies tho

From what I’ve heard from my Yale friends

[stoic sequoia]

location is so so so important but people undervalue it a lot 😭

[brazen raven]

I like their location lol

[sweet briar]

Oh

[brazen raven]

That’s one of the things I like about it

[sweet briar]

Okay ntm

[stoic sequoia]

its like in boston but its not

[brazen raven]

I like suburban schools, where you get nature but also close to the city

[brazen raven]

That’s what makes it good

[sweet briar]

That’s the best part

[brazen raven]

I don’t wanna live in the literal city

[umbral kite]

i feel like it has a ton of asians

[sweet briar]

Yes

[umbral kite]

thoughts on new haven

[brazen raven]

Can Asians not be baddies?

[umbral kite]

thats what I was implying asians = baddies

[brazen raven]

W then

[umbral kite]

[sweet briar]

Coming from someone who lives in a major city. I love tufts location

[brazen raven]

Real

[sweet briar]

You can be in Boston in 30 mins

[umbral kite]

valid valid

[sweet briar]

And it’s also very quiet

[brazen raven]

Tufts has prime Boston location imo

Much better than like MIT

[umbral kite]

when i was there i didnt make a single friend tho i felt so alone

but then again i blame it on myself for not tryna reach out more

[sweet briar]

Sounds like a you problem lol

[stoic sequoia]

its okay but very iffy compared to the rest of the ivies/t20s

[umbral kite]

yea lowk

[sweet briar]

You’re the one who did the fly in right?

[brazen raven]

Bro that’s what he said

[umbral kite]

yes

[umbral kite]

😭

[umbral kite]

true true

[stoic sequoia]

campus wise yale is top tier but location wise not that amazing

[umbral kite]

new haven kinda mid

yale campus is so fkn sexy

[sweet briar]

I typed that as he was typing his other statement

[brazen raven]

New Haven crime rate 🤫

[umbral kite]

mid location

[stoic sequoia]

probably 3rd worst location out of the ivies

[brazen raven]

What’s the top 2

[sweet briar]

Cornell

[brazen raven]

Bros gonna say ithaca

[stoic sequoia]

lol yeah ithaca and hanover

[sweet briar]

It’s true

[brazen raven]

What’s bad about it

[tepid nexus]

new haven isnt that bad ppl

[sweet briar]

Dartmouth and Cornell

[brazen raven]

Too rural?

[sweet briar]

Very rural

Nearest chick fil a is 2 hours away

Or like an hour+ if I remember correctly

[brazen raven]

Bro hates nature, bro hates immersing himself among god’s beautiful creations, bro desires modern materialism to fill his empty soul

[sweet briar]

Oh no I love Cornell’s campus

[tepid nexus]

ithaca is still better off than hanover

[sweet briar]

It’s so nice up there

[stoic sequoia]

upenn is better locationwise because cost of living isnt that high so its manageable plus its philly so its the best of both worlds

[tepid nexus]

hanover is like dead nowhere

[sweet briar]

But it’s so far from everything

[tepid nexus]

ithaca is still somewhat close to other ny cities

[umbral kite]

LMFAOO BRO CALLED IT

[tepid nexus]

but hanover has nothing

[umbral kite]

ONG

[brazen raven]

Dartmouth is also mid so

[sweet briar]

Still need a car to get around

[brazen raven]

[umbral kite]

so new haven > ithaca > hanover

[stoic sequoia]

cornell community is hella chill though 🤙🤙

[umbral kite]

fr tho

[sweet briar]

I’ve never been to Hanover so idk

[tepid nexus]

well yeah but thats true for most of the country esp outside the east coast

[brazen raven]

If you are anywhere outside of urban you need a car

[sweet briar]

I’ve never lived in a place where you’ve needed a car

I’ve always lived in major cities

So not having reliable public transport is a no from me

[stoic sequoia]

yeah and 1st is definitely cambridge rest r debatable

[umbral kite]

yea cambridge is so active

but harvard campus lowkey mid 😭

[stoic sequoia]

maybe philly or nyc tie for second providence 4th and princeton 5th

[stoic sequoia]

thats so true plus too many tourists

imagine people taking pics of u in your dorm 😭

[umbral kite]

bro when i went i felt like a poser w my harvard sweater

😭

theres hella tourists

and there was a line to touch the mans foot

[stoic sequoia]

which freshmen piss on lmaooo

[stoic sequoia]

have u visited yale yet

[umbral kite]

no net yet

im gonna go for bulldog days

[umbral kite]

BRO THAT CANT BE REAL

the statue is hella tall

who's stream can reach that

[stoic sequoia]

idk maybe they climb it or they just use a cup for transportation 😂

[stoic sequoia]

did you rub the foot for good luck

[umbral kite]

oh hell no

[umbral kite]

LMFAOOO

[stoic sequoia]

honestly i dont even feel bad for the tourists at that point

theyre wild

they were taking pics in my friends dorm 😭

[wind pike]

holy moly its so active here

omg seeing tufts on the decision dates channels has me stressed for absolutely no reason whatsoever

im stressed for you guys

@languid roost especially you, i want you to go to tufts

[wind pike]

[languid roost]

Aww that’s so sweet 😭

[languid roost]

Tufts should pull a cmu and accept all of us a2cers

[regal adder]

[umbral kite]

[pliant pumice]

[regal adder]

[umbral kite]

thoughts on boston baddies @ harvard?
