My guess is that a 3.7 UW GPA is likely still below Tufts’ median GPA. It has a 9% acceptance rate, and I suspect that the majority of students who are accepted have nearly straight A’s across the board. Also, from what the OP posted, she may not be judged to have taken the highest rigor at her high school. OP, not knocking your accomplishments and record at all … . it’s just that Tufts is a really competitive school and 91% of applicants will be rejected, including, I suspect quite a few students with close to 4.0 UW GPAs.
