Dear Parents and Families,
Greetings from the Medford/Somerville and Fenway campuses! Our many colleagues in Academic Advising and Student Affairs are busy preparing for your student to join us in September. We're looking forward to welcoming them to the Tufts community!
As President Monaco shared in his email last week, Tufts University is closely monitoring the ongoing situation regarding the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and its impact on the start of the fall semester as well as Undergraduate Orientation. While we continue to plan for an on-campus fall semester, no decision about when students may come or return to campus has been made. Our priority is the health and safety of our community, and our decisions will be made in consultation with local and state health authorities. As soon as decisions are made, they will be communicated to students and families so everyone can plan accordingly. Additional information and Frequently Aske Questions on Tufts' response to COVID-19 can be found at coronavirus.tufts.edu.
Over the next few weeks, we'll be sending periodic emails to introduce parents and families to these same resources and people. We also invite you to explore our resources for parents and families online

New Student Checklist 2020

Your student has a few important tasks to complete over the summer, many of which can be completed online. We list all items on their customized New Student Checklist 2020, which opened on May 19 on their Application Status page.

What's Your Student Reading this Summer?

We're sending a message each week this summer to help incoming students stay up to date and on track for Orientation in September. We're also introducing students to various departments and resources at Tufts. We keep all our messages in an online archive in case they miss a mailing or would like to review information a second time.
