Welcome to Tufts University!

See Academic Calendars

We assist students and families to understand the expectations and opportunities of the Tufts community. We help prepare students for their academic and co-curricular journeys by facilitating an introduction to their peers and to Tufts’ services.

What Happens During Orientation?

During Orientation, you’ll participate in a wide range of programs designed to familiarize you with campus resources, build community and connection, and establish skills for independence and responsibility. We divide our goals for Orientation into four broad categories: Intellectual Engagement and Inquiry, Meaningful Inclusion, Community and Belonging, and Health and Wellness.
