Applying
International students are asked to submit the same set of credentials required of all first year or transfer applicants.
The admissions process is individualized and designed to focus on the intellectual strengths of applicants while understanding the richness and breadth of backgrounds. Primary emphasis is placed on evaluating candidates within the context of their national academic system. Close attention is paid to the secondary school record, standardized testing, recommendations, and any information providing insight into the work of the student. The admissions office is familiar with evaluating credentials from many different educational systems, such as the GCSE and GCE A-levels, the French Baccalaureate, the International Baccalaureate, and the Abitur, among others.
Although we ask applicants to complete standardized tests for a U.S. secondary system, these tests are interpreted in the context of one's international background. Similarly, the admissions office is aware of the varying levels of extracurricular opportunities available for many international students.
Students for whom English is not the primary language, or not the language of instruction in their secondary school, should take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) in addition to the options listed above. A minimum TOEFL score of 100 on the Internet-based test is recommended. The Tufts code for TOEFL submission is 3901. We also accept the IELTS, with a minimum of 7 recommended and the PTE, with a recommended minimum score of 68.
Information for First-Year Applicants
Tufts uses the Common Application and the Coalition Application. While the Common Application is now live, the Tufts Coalition Application will be live in late August. Everything you need to apply, including the Tufts Writing Supplement, is hosted on the Common Application website or the Coalition Application website. We provide a simple checklist of all the required application materials below. We are not able to accept supplemental materials that don't appear on this checklist. For those applying through QuestBridge, you can find information about the application here.
Application Checklist
A complete application includes the following nine (9) items, which are required:
Completed Common Application or Coalition Application
Completed Tufts Writing Supplement
High School Transcript(s)
Senior Grades: All applicants will be required to send their senior grades as part of their application. Students applying Early Decision I should send first quarter or trimester grades no later than the last week in November. Students applying Early Decision II should plan for their first semester or trimester grades to arrive no later than the third week in January. Finally, Regular Decision applicants should submit their first semester or trimester grades by the middle of February. Students studying abroad (where predicted grades are common) should send those if senior grades are not available.
Testing:
For applicants to the School or Arts and Sciences, the School of Engineering or the Combined Degree Programs with the SMFA at Tufts or the NEC: SAT with two subject tests or ACT. See the standardized test requirements for information about these tests and recommendations regarding which subject tests to take.
For applicants to the SMFA at Tufts' BFA program: SAT or ACT. Subject tests are not required for BFA candidates applying to the SMFA at Tufts.
TOEFL Scores: Required only for students for whom English is not the first language or who attend a school where English is not the language of instruction.
Letters of Recommendation: Tufts requires one letter from a teacher in a junior or senior year major academic course (math, natural science, social science, English, or a foreign language) and one letter from a guidance counselor for all applicants. Candidates for the SMFA at Tufts' BFA or Combined Degree programs are required to submit a letter from their art teacher as well. An additional letter from all other applicants, though not encouraged, may be submitted if the student feels it can add new perspective to his or her application.
Extracurricular Activities: In addition to evaluating an academic fit, the admissions committee looks for ways a student may contribute to the community as a whole. They will assess the level and type of involvement in each activity and may ask questions such as: Has the student been a significant contributor or leader? How has the involvement contributed to the school or larger community? Does the student have a special talent in a particular area? We do not expect all students to be team captains, class presidents, or editors-in-chief; rather, we look for meaningful involvement in their school and/or community. The Common Application allows students to list up to ten different activities, but you don't need to fill every space. Some of the most successful applicants are heavily engaged in just a few activities. Keep in mind that the Common Application is your one chance to show your extracurricular engagements: we are not able to accept a supplemental resume of activities.
Art Portfolio: Required only for students applying to the Combined Degree BFA/BA or BFA/BS and BFA applicants to the SMFA at Tufts. Submit a 15-20-piece portfolio of recent work, which represents your strengths and interests, via SlideRoom.
$75 Application Fee or Fee Waiver - You may have the application fee waived by submitting either i) a written request from your college counselor or school official who can attest that the fee would represent a financial hardship, or ii) a College Board Request for Waiver of the Application Fee form. You may consider the waiver approved unless a member of the Office of Undergraduate Admissions notifies you otherwise. Without an application fee, or an approved fee waiver, we cannot continue to process your application to Tufts University.
These additions to the application are optional, meaning they are not required:
Alumni Interview
Arts or Maker Portfolio: As the Application Checklist indicates above, the Art Portfolio is required for students applying to the BFA or Combined Degree programs at the SMFA at Tufts. Students applying to the School of Arts and Sciences or the School of Engineering, however, may submit an optional arts or maker portfolio to highlight talent in studio art, drama, dance, music, or engineering.
Please also note that applying for financial aid is a separate process, with its own required documents.
Applying to Tufts as a Transfer Applicant
About the Process
Transfer admission to Tufts is highly competitive. In the last few years, the acceptance rate for transfer students has been between ten and twenty percent. Although the process is highly selective, each complete application receives a comprehensive review by Tufts Transfer Admission Committee.
The transfer committee considers each applicants specific passions, goals, talents and interests, and the committee evaluates each applicants academic profile in the context of his or her personal history and reasons for wanting to transfer to Tufts. Tufts Transfer Admission Committee does not employ admissions calculus to render its decisions; GPA and standardized testing cut-offs do not exist. However, the most powerful transfer candidates tend be high achieving in their chosen fields of study.
How to Apply
Transfer candidates apply online using the Common Application, which includes the Tufts Writing Supplement.
Application Requirements
A complete transfer application must be submitted by March 15th and must include the following nine (9) items. We strongly recommend including your social security number only where requested; please do not include on essays, recommendations, etc. Feel free to print out this page and use it as a checklist:
