RESIDENTIAL LIFE AT TUFTS
August 3, 2021
Hello Jumbos,
Now that you've received your Move-In information and housing assignments, you may be wondering what it's like to live in residence halls. This week, we're sharing information about the Office of Residential Life and Learning to help answer some of your questions. While we know that some new transfer students are living off campus, we hope you find this information helpful in learning about this important Tufts department.
Residential Life at Tufts
Moving In
Now that you have your housing assignment, you're probably wondering how to move in, what to bring, and what to expect in your residence hall.
Check out our Move-In Information, which includes dates and times for your move to campus.
Remember, a microfridge will be provided free of charge in each residence hall room this year (1 per room).
Learn more about your residence hall. Look at a floor plan and pictures, find the average measurements for rooms, and discover common areas in your building.
As always, we encourage students to pack light -- especially this year. However, to assist with move-in, students may ship belongings to campus ahead of time. in addition, please review Mail Services' guidelines for shipping information. Items must be postmarked by August 15th.
Once You're On Campus
How do you send or receive mail in the residence halls? What happens if you lose the key to your room? How do you register a bicycle on campus? We've got answers to all of these questions and more in our Housing Guidelines and Policies.
This week, you will be getting two messages. Tomorrow, we're going to explore Tufts Global Education. Tufts has been offering study abroad programs for over five decades, and currently offers ten undergraduate programs. Learn about programs and the application process!
