Illness Policy

Reporting an Illness

Tufts Health Service has created a new web-based mechanism for students to report an illness to their instructors. Students can access this form through Web Center for Students, and are able to email the professor a pdf if they expect to miss class or class assignments due to illness. Please note that this form will serve in place of a health "note" from Health Service for class absences or class assignments. Students are still required to provide medical documentation from Health Service or other medical provider information if the student is too ill to take an in-class mid term or in-class final examination.

For additional information please contact James Glaser, Dean of Undergraduate Education and Dr. Margaret Higham (617-6275883), Medical Director of Tufts Health Service.
