Inside Admissions

Tufts Admissions Team

Siwaar Abouhala

Challenging unlimited willpower (with care)

Hello there! My name is Siwaar Abouhala, a freshman from West Harrison, NY, and I'm so excited to offer you a glimpse into life at Tufts! I work for Tufts Admissions through the Student Communications Group (SCG), mentor for Strong Women Strong Girls (SWSG), teach for Peer Health Exchange, and serve as Co-Social Chair for the Arab Student Association (ASA), so I'm really happy to share different perspectives with you. I'm always here to answer any questions and give advice! :)
