That's very flattering but I don't think so Tufts is a wonderful school and competition is very intense - this year more so than ever. And I think that I showed a lot of interest by visiting the school and travelling pretty far for the interview... (which took, by the way, place about 200 meters away from my Duke interview)

abhijitkane, maybe something like International Studies/Political Science and a foreign languages.

Interesting! (yes, I'm already back, it was a bit cold outside so I headed home quickly ) Is Princeton the only Ivy you applied to?

It's ok, seriously. i wasn't expecting anything else, plus i think i wouldn't really have fit in anyway. same goes for Harvard.

It's 6° Celsius here, I don't know how much this is in Fahrenheit. Obviously, I'm used to much colder temperatures but -smart as I am- I didn't wear anything but sweatpants and a sweatshirt

yes i did, but yale is needblind. i kind of knew it because my FA application was very lousy so if they HAD admitted me, the FA office would have asked for more documentation for sure.
