Inside Admissions

Tufts Admissions Team

Thank you, Haskell Hall!

Apr 20
Jumbo Talk

Before I got to college, I was nervous about what my first-year housing situation would be.  Would I get along with my roommate? Would I become friends with people on my floor?  I found my freshman year roommate through the Tufts Class of 2018 Facebook group.  We began talking, hit it off, and decided to live together.  I am from New York and she is in Chicago, so we did not have a chance to meet up in-person before school started.  We moved in on the same day, and started to decorate our room.

I was placed in a double in Haskell Hall, which is downhill and made up of 10-person single gender suites.  The placement of the individuals in the suite was random.  Every day, I am thankful for the fact that ORLL placed this group of girls together.  Throughout my entire college experience, I have lived with people from my freshman year suite.  We've travelled together, constantly group message each other, and have been together from the start of college.  Though I am sad about leaving Tufts after next year, I am so happy and proud to be friends with such amazing individuals.  Whether it is late-night conversations about our latests insights from class or just gossiping about drama, my time at Tufts is always filled with the love and support of my suite mates!
