Why Tufts: Tufts is the place for me. It feels right. But not for the reasons outlined in my application back in 2012. I thought I knew why Tufts was right for me. Turns out I didn't. "All I know is that I know nothing", to put it in the words of Socrates. But "no regrets", as Veer would say. Perhaps this is one of the most unexpected pleasant surprises. I discovered that I loved Tufts for reasons I would never have imagined.
