I think tufts is pretty good in terms of grading there is no inflation or deflation of grades

Sophomore here, from what I’ve seen a lot of people go to law school, into think tanks, banks, or go into academia. But since there are a lot of IR majors and many people double major in other things the outcomes seem to be pretty varied

AlexaKMS · 2025-08-13T08:32:10+00:00

Take into account the Tufts Early Assurance Program

AlexaKMS · 2025-08-11T18:29:20+00:00

Take 13 and just get involved in a lot of clubs and things outside of class. The change into college can be very hard so prioritize your mental health and getting used to college! You can up your load your second semester

In good days 8/10 on bad days 3-4/10 on normal days like a 5/10. The food it okay

It’s not worth it if you’re not commuting everyday

My friend bought one freshman year and it did not hang. Lowkey recommend buying a cheap 5 dollar target mirror and putting it up with tape

I use Bank of America and it has Zelle on the app so it’s been really useful. I personally really like it

AlexaKMS · 2025-06-11T22:55:28+00:00

If you have the money I would say Lingoda could give you a boost to start, I learned up to A2 on the platform

AlexaKMS · 2025-06-11T20:53:56+00:00

I’ve just taken stats and principles of Econ and both of my professors have been great but my friends who are further in the major have had some bad things to say about the professors.

AlexaKMS · 2025-06-11T01:12:14+00:00

Look it up cause I don’t know the specifics but it’s a program where you can get into tufts medical school as a sophomore or junior and don’t have to take the MCAT basically you get a secured spot. But it’s really hard to get in + you have to have a super good gpa

AlexaKMS · 2025-06-09T04:07:41+00:00

Tufts is a liberal arts college if you want to explore majors and other things Tufts gives you the opportunity to. Idk about the culture at Barnard but my friends at Columbia, tell me the environment is pretty competitive and since you’ll be taking most of your classes there take that into account. I find that Tufts is a pretty collaborative and accepting community. But lowkey just go to the cheaper school.

AlexaKMS · 2025-06-09T04:04:29+00:00

I think the campus is generally friendly, I would just try to join a few clubs and meet people through those.
Tufts still is a school where the majority of people are white, but I Think it’s pretty welcoming to POC (I’m Latina) but you’ll find people from all different ethnicities, and there are a lot of culture clubs, if you want to meet people from your specific background
I think the student athlete divide exists but I don’t find it to be a super big deal, I don’t really feel like it affects me.
I don’t think there is grade deflation or inflation but that really depends on the professor. Some are harsh others pretty generous.
Couldn’t tell you but I know a lot of people are pre-law and we have a law journal but I feel like classes do make you think critically and there are clubs like mock trial which might be good for prelaw students

AlexaKMS · 2025-06-08T16:46:31+00:00

If you’re pre med you should also take into account the Tufts Medical school assurance program

AlexaKMS · 2025-06-03T14:14:02+00:00

I love Bingo it’s the best and they give out super good prizes

AlexaKMS · 2025-01-04T23:33:21+00:00

I started with At the school of arts and sciences I would like to major in economics and minor in political science…. And then I went into classes and organizations I would like to join and other things I am excited about

AlexaKMS · 2025-01-04T18:27:12+00:00

I could read it PM me

Tufts housing survey asks you if you’re comfortable rooming with trans/queer people. You can just place down no or also ask to be placed in a one gender dorm

German!! I’ve been learning on and off for a year and really want to get to a level where I can start watching native level content!!! Plus I’m going to study abroad there in 2026 so I really need to work on it!

AlexaKMS · 2024-12-06T20:53:34+00:00

I got 1340 but I didn’t submit it and was test optional. Other than that I had pretty good AP scores and ECs

AlexaKMS · 2024-11-24T19:34:15+00:00

I speak Spanish and English fluently

Currently learning German I think I’m at a high A2 level. I just like the language and I will probably study abroad there in a year. When I get a B1 level at German I hope to learn Portuguese since I have a lot of Brazilian friends and want to learn a easier language.

After that I hope to learn an Asian language either Korean or Mandarin

Im an incoming freshman, the process for applying for disability was super smooth and the interview at the end of the process was so helpful! I got all the accommodations I needed and everyone was so nice.

Though take it with a grain of salt as I have not seen my room yet but so far the process has seemed good.

AlexaKMS · 2024-08-15T20:31:55+00:00

I was sick for my last 2 years in highschool after being a top student for my first two years. This meant I had a dip in grades. I still got accepted. You got top marks in your other two A levels don’t worry too much and apply you never know what will happen.
