Voices of Tufts 2025 - Student ApplicationVoices of Tufts is a visit program sponsored by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions, designed to introduce high school seniors to the ways students create a sense of belonging and community at Tufts University. Through conversations with current students, panel discussions with Tufts staff and faculty, opportunities to meaningfully connect with our Division of Student Diversity and Inclusion, and social programming, Voices aims to inform and empower students as they navigate the college search process. In October 2025, we will offer two Voices of Tufts programs. Applicants should indicate their preferred program option on the application below: Virtual program: Sunday, October 5, 2025In-person program: Sunday, October 19 - Monday, October 20, 2025Any rising senior who attends high school in the US is eligible to apply. While Voices has traditionally attracted participants with strong academic records from a variety of backgrounds – including but not limited to students of color, first generation college-bound students, LGBTQIA+ students, students from low-income backgrounds, students with disabilities, and students from rural communities – any student interested in learning more about the Tufts community is welcome to apply. Most importantly, we seek to invite high-achieving students who are kind, collaborative, civically-engaged, and interested in creating a more inclusive world. The deadline to apply is Monday, July 21, 2025 at 11:59PM local time. A complete application includes an up-to-date high school transcript, including final junior year grades, which may be submitted by you or your school counselor by July 21, 2025. There is no cost to participate in Voices and, for the in-person program, Tufts Admissions will arrange for transportation at no cost for students for whom the trip to campus would be a financial hardship. All program participants and applicants will have the application fee waived if they choose to apply to Tufts for first-year admission. Review the Voices of Tufts website and frequently asked questions for more information.
