International Students: How to Register

All International students should review important student visa information. Once you have completed your visa application and received confirmation of its approval, please follow the steps below to enroll in Tufts Summer Session 2010.

Have you enrolled at Tufts before?
If you are returning to Tufts University this summer as an international student, and have enrolled at Tufts anytime since 2008 (fall, spring, or summer), you can skip any set up or preliminary steps and enroll directly using the university's web-based registration system, SIS Online. If you need help logging on (password reset, ID information, etc.), call Student Services at 617-627-2000. 

New to Tufts?
If you have never enrolled at Tufts or were enrolled before 2008, you must request access to the university's web-based registration site, SIS Online.

1. Request Summer Enrollment Status at Tufts University.
   Download and complete the Request for Summer Enrollment Status form. This is not a registration form.  It is an application for enrollment on which you submit personal and academic information. Send this form, along with the $50 nonrefundable registration fee, to Tufts University Summer Session, 108 Packard Avenue, Medford, MA  02155. If paying your registration fee by credit card, you may fax the above form to the Summer Session Office at 617-627-3295.
    
2. Receive Web Enrollment Log-on Directions via E-mail
   Within five business days after your Request for Summer Enrollment Status form is received by Tufts, you will receive an e-mail message from the university indicating that you are ready to log on to the university's web-based registration system, SIS Online. This e-mail will include a nine-digit university ID number that you will need to log on and should keep handy for future use. Follow the directions provided in this e-mail to complete summer enrollment at Tufts University successfully.
    
3. Use SIS Online for Course Selections, Course Edits and Information
   Using the log-on credentials provided in the e-mail from Tufts University, you can access the university's web-based enrollment program SIS Online to submit course selections, edit course selections (add, drop, withdraw), view course details (such as course meeting information, classroom location), and view summer tuition billing charges. You can use SIS Online for enrollment and registration changes anytime from March 1 until 6:00 p.m. the day before summer classes begin (either May 25 or July 1). 

Walk-in Registration
Tufts University will accept walk-in registration at Summer Session Information Day held in Dowling Hall on Tuesday, May 25, 2010. Full payment of any previous university balance and current summer tuition and fees is required.

Late Registration
If you missed the online registration period, you can still register on or after the first day of each session by submitting a Registration Form with full payment of tuition and fees to the Summer Session Office. If you are adding a course after its first class meeting, instructor approval is required. Late registration will result in the assessment of a late registration fee ($50 through the add/drop period; $100 thereafter).
