Dear First-Year Student,
During the summer, you were notified that Tufts requires all first-year students to complete an asynchronous, interactive 5-module version of the mandatory Discrimination and Harassment prevention training for incoming undergraduate students. This training is provided by the Office of Equal Opportunity (OEO) and it covers the University's Non-Discrimination Policy, Sexual Misconduct Policy, affirmative consent, and Tufts' expectations of all AS&E and SMFA undergraduates. This training was also listed in your enrollment checklist requirements for Fall 2025.
You were invited to the Canvas course on July 9 and required to complete the modules and quizzes by end-of-day on Monday, August 18. You were notified of the registration hold during enrollment, on the training page in Canvas, and through reminders sent from Canvas before the deadline.
Our records show that you have not yet completed this mandatory training on CANVAS. As a result, an enrollment hold has been placed on your registration for Spring 2026. The enrollment hold will be lifted within 3 business days after you complete the training, allowing you to register for your chosen Spring courses.
OEO has extended your access to the training on CANVAS between Monday, September 22 and Friday, October 10. An invitation to complete this training will be sent from CANVAS to your Tufts email soon. We encourage you to complete it as soon as possible, so that we can lift the hold on your registration and ensure that you will be able to register for classes without any delay.
If you have any questions about this training or have trouble with the process, please contact the Office of Equal Opportunity at oeotraining@tufts.edu.
