    Your channel is so, so, so helpful!! I'm a rising sophomore and I'm really passionate about political issues and journalism. I'm looking at the college of civic life and I'm wondering if you have any info on the civic life/engagement major + peace and justice minor :). How is Tufts involved politically as a student body and how is the campus paper? Thanks again!!

    • @GraceGong
      @GraceGong  4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      The campus is super politically involved and there's always lots of talk and political activism everywhere! Not sure about the civic life/ peace justice minor, but I think you'd love Tufts:) The paper is great, there are many publications to choose from and tons of different options for roles and events to write about!

    Hey grace, I really want to get into tufts and I'm a sophmore at Revere High school. I am currently holding a 3.81 weighted gpa which im afraid is not high enough. I am currently int he middle of quater 3 right now (out of 4). I was wondering if I could get your contact info since I live in the Boston area and was hoping if you could guide me since it's honestly my dream to get into Tufts.

    Hey! Thank you so much for the video! I have a question tho, in your interview did you already go with your questions or did the interviewer ask you real questions? Because a few schools I was looking in only had interviews for us to clarify our doubts

    • @GraceGong
      @GraceGong  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The interviewer definitely asked me questions that they had prepared! They were pretty typical

    Were those your only AP classes. Trying to figure out the right balance between honors and AP. Do I take as many AP’s as possible or is there a risk with that - are they looking for the most strenuous transcript or just a high weighted?
