Welcome, Counselors and Advisors!

Join our Counselor Mailing List

High school counselors, advisors with college access organizations, and independent educational consultants may join our counselor mailing list by signing up here.

Slate.org Counselor Portal

Tufts Admissions uses Slate.org to share applicant information with school counselors. Slate.org is a free tool that allows counselors to view students’ application checklists, upload select application documents, and access released admissions decisions. To join, create a counselor account at Slate.org. One counselor per school is designated to manage permissions and portal settings.

Opportunities to Visit Tufts

Our Medford/Somerville campus – home to the School of Arts and Sciences and the School of Engineering – is located just five miles northwest of Boston and may be easily reached by car or public transportation. 

Our Fenway campus, home to the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts, is located in downtown Boston. If you're interested in learning more about the Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) or BFA+BA/BS Combined Degree program with the SMFA, visit the Fenway Campus.

for you

The best way to fully appreciate Tufts is to visit our campus. If you have never been to our campus, or it has been a while, we would love to have you be our guest for a day. Our hope is that you can take a tour of our campus and meet with an admissions officer to answer any questions that you have.

for your students

Almost every day of the work week (and on select Saturdays in the Fall and in April) we offer information sessions and campus tours. See the Visit section of this website for details.

for group visits

If you would like to bring a group of 10 or more students to campus, please submit a group visit request here. We are unable to accommodate groups on weekends, holidays, and school vacation weeks.

At a Glance

At Tufts, we have a student body made up of more than numbers. Our students have strong academic records, but we look for more than that when admitting a class. We enroll students who demonstrate intellectual curiosity, collaborative spirit, civic engagement, and the many qualities that define Tufts' mission. Click here for the most recent class profile.

Career Outcomes

96% of the Class of 2024 were employed, enrolled in graduate school, or participating in service or a fellowship within six months of graduation. Click this link to see about more where our most recent class ended up.
