The Voices of Tufts Diversity Experiences Application 2015



    Application Deadline: Applications and all required materials must be received by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on October 13, 2015 to be considered.

    Thank you for your interest in Tufts University! The Voices of Tufts Diversity Experiences will take place October 22-23, 2015 (Engineering Experience) and October 29-30, 2015 (Arts & Sciences Experience). Both Voices Experiences will provide a broad introduction to undergraduate life at Tufts. Participants will have the opportunity to stay overnight with a current undergraduate, attend lectures from professors, eat in the dining halls and experience the university first-hand. There is no cost to attend Voices. If you will need financial assistance to get to campus, there is a place to indicate that on the bottom of this application. A complete Voices Application consists of your contact information, your 100-word essay, your transcript, and a letter of recommendation from your guidance/college counselor. Incomplete applications will not be considered, so be sure to submit all pieces.
     
    To complete your part of the application for Voices, you will need the following information:
    • The name, email and telephone number of your school guidance/college counselor.
    • Your current cell phone number.
    • Your current email address (we do a lot of communication via email, so make sure it’s an address you check often!).
    • Your SAT or ACT scores if available.
     
    If you will be requesting financial assistance to get to campus, in addition to the information above you will need: 
    • Your name exactly as it appears on the ID with which you will travel.
    • Your date of birth.
    • The name of the airport or train station closest to your home (please note that students who live in New York City will be provided with chartered bus service or Amtrak tickets from New York’s Penn Station).
     
    Finally, you will have to write a short essay of 100 words or less about why you would like to attend the Voices of Tufts Diversity Experience. We suggest you take a few minutes now to think about your answer before submitting the application.
     
    Applications are due by 5 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on Tuesday, October 13, 2015. Late applications will not be considered due to the high volume of applications we receive by the deadline. Students will be notified of their invitation status on a rolling basis and in most cases by no later than Friday, October 16, 2015. Please submit your Voices application as early as possible - try not to wait until the deadline. If you have questions about the program, please contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions at 617-627-3170 and ask to speak with the Voices Officer of the Day.
     
    On behalf of the Office of Undergraduate Admissions, thank you again for your interest in Tufts University. We look forward to receiving your application.
