Tufts University Chances

In the past, at my school, Tufts has always wound up accepting the student with the higher SAT score/ GPA-- even if they had literally no extracurriculars. When I visited, and they told me that they have 10 people to read the 4,000+ applications they receive each year, I felt that this fact helped somewhat to verify that. Of course, that’s not to say that they never look at ECs or the whole person, but I’d say they look at them less so than other schools. (especially smaller liberal arts schools where they have 50 people reading 1000 applications)
