Reread my primary and secondary apps. Reviewed Tufts website to figure out what I wanted to know more about.

So you haven't volunteered. Why didn't you? Did you really not volunteer? Other students have bonded with children who have cancer. Do you have a story like that? So you really didn't volunteer?...

Cooperative atmosphere, administration responds to students, many electives.

Construction is starting on the main student center a few months before we would begin. There is no WAY it will be finished by the time we get there. Plus, Tufts is the most expensive school and they only give 9% of students scholarships?!
