Inside Admissions

Valerie Nam

Assistant Director of Admissions

Through my educational career, I’ve been a student at different types of institutions and had varying experiences at each of them. From a public school system in a small city, an independent school with 85 students in my graduating class, to an undergraduate institution of almost 30,000 students, I’ve had a taste of it all. It’s through these experiences that I’ve learned the importance of identifying a college or university that will be a good fit for you, one that will meet all your needs to ensure your academic success. I’m excited to now be at Tufts University, one that prioritizes community, collaboration, and civic engagement. I’m proud to be a part of this community and I look forward to sharing it with you!
