<p>Yes, I know three people who are on a full-ride to Tufts thanks to non-need based aid. These are scholarships not based on need, but on other qualifications. You can’t apply for them – the admissions committee keeps an eye out for people who fulfill the requirements of each scholarship (i.e. one especially for Eastern Europeans or pre-vet students or civically engaged people, etc). However, you can’t bank on it as you can’t specifically apply for one.</p>
