Updated September 6, 2021
Fall 2021: Due to ongoing COVID-19 conditions, the International Center will work in a primarily remote environment, with a limited number of walk-in hours for quick document drop-off and pick-up service at our three locations. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we continue to prioritize the safety of our students, scholars, and International Center staff. For more information about our Fall 2021 services, see our Guide to Getting Things Done with the International Center.
We encourage you to make an advising appointment with an International Center advisor about any matter of concern, including questions about visa and immigration requirements, employment, travel, academic or personal issues, Tufts resources, and more.
You can schedule a virtual appointment session with an international student and scholar advisor by clicking on the scheduling link indicated below. You will receive a confirmation email generated by our online advising appointment system (Calendly or Acuity Scheduling). Please cancel your appointment at least 24 hours in advance if you are unable to make the appointment. If you prefer a phone appointment, please schedule an appointment using the online scheduling system and send an email to your advisor to indicate your preference.
