Inside Admissions

Rachel Brown

Associate Director, Fenway Fan, Skeeball Team Captain

I grew up on the other side of the country in sunny San Diego. I couldn't be more grateful that my path through higher education has landed me here at Tufts University in the Admissions Office. The Tufts community is a big reason why I chose to join the office, and I really enjoy getting to know student stories through applications. I hope you enjoy learning about this supportive, engaging, and vibrant community by reading the blogs and the website.
