How to Invite a J-1 Scholar

To invite a scholar (researchers, lecturers) in J-1 status, the I-Center will assign your department a username and password for "e-Scholar."

Please email internationalcenter@tufts.edu directly if you wish to do this, and someone will assist you.

e-Scholar is an electronic system that assists the I-Center in collecting data from both the sponsoring Tufts department and the individual who will visit Tufts in J-1 status. The Tufts department, (usually the department administrator, but not always) will complete an electronic form detailing the dates, position, and other particulars of the appointment. You will then invite the scholar to complete his or her biographical information.
