Overview

Discrimination has no place at Tufts University and offends the University’s core values that include a commitment to equal opportunity and inclusion. Tufts is committed to the fundamental principle of equal opportunity and equal treatment for every applicant, current employee and student. It is the policy of the university not to discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin, shared/ancestry, age, religion, disability, sex or gender (including pregnancy), gender identity and/or expression (including a transgender identity), sexual orientation, military or veteran status, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected under applicable federal, state or local law.
