Tufts University draws students from all over the world. Our student body typically represents every US state and over 80 countries! And while we absolutely love welcoming prospective students and their families to campus for information sessions and tours, we realize that not everyone has the chance to visit us in person. So on this page, we have created a virtual experience to showcase this incredible community so you can get to know Tufts from the comfort of your home. 

Virtual Visit Opportunities

We are excited to welcome you virtually to our campus through a slate of virtual events for you to participate in and engage with Tufts students and admissions staff.

Virtual Information Sessions last one hour and consist of a presentation on all things Tufts—including academic opportunities, life on "the Hill," and admissions and financial aid information—interspersed by breaks for Q&A. We also offer Engineering Information Sessions, which focus on opportunities within our School of Engineering specifically. 

Virtual Guided Tours last one hour and feature a tour guide leading you through our YouVisit Virtual Tour in real time. Virtual tours offer the opportunity to hear from a current student directly about their stories and experiences at Tufts.

Tufts for You is virtual pre-recorded mock classes, specialized information sessions, and workshops available to view anytime, on demand here!

Virtual Tours are available through YouVisit and allow you to explore campus on your own terms. You can take one here at any time! 

SMFA Virtual Information Sessions, Tours, and One-on-One Portfolio Reviews are available for students interested in the studio art programs offered at SMFA at Tufts. You can learn more about these opportunities and register here.

Virtual Transfer Student Question and Answer Sessions provide a brief overview of Tufts with a focus on the transfer process and a significant portion of the session reserved for questions. In 2025, transfer Q&A sessions will be held on January 16, January 28, February 21, and February 25 at 3:00pm ET, and on February 13 and March 12 at 4:00pm ET.

Use our Virtual Visit Calendar to register for all virtual events.
