SUMMER 2020 REGISTRATION
-
Currently there are discussions to determine if online summer NUTR courses will be offered by the School, as well as if online courses taken elsewhere over the summer can be accepted for semester hour units (beyond the usual two course limit for transfer credit). Please stay tuned for further information.
- At this time the following NUTR courses are offered via SIS in Summer 2020:
PhD STUDENTS
- If you did not yet complete your Qualifying Examination requirement, you need to enroll in NUTR 0399.
- If you passed your Qualifying Examination, you need to enroll in NUTR 0403.
- If you do not enroll in either of these courses you will not be in full-time enrollment status and a late registration fee will automatically be posted to your account in SIS and your loan deferments may be impacted.
DUAL-DEGREE STUDENTS
- If you will be matriculated at Friedman in Fall 2020 (paying tuition to Friedman in the fall) you will be able to enroll in NUTR courses beginning April 6 and will need to use the cross-registration feature in SIS to enroll in your other school's courses (e.g., PH, UEP, etc.) for Fall 2020.
- If you use the SIS cross-registration feature for enrollment in the courses you need at your other Tufts school the system will bypass the instructor approval and go directly to the relevant registrars for approval and enrollment processing.
MNSP (NUTB) COURSES
- Using the Qualtrics online forms below you may enroll in Friedman’s Master of Nutrition Science and Policy (MNSP) degree program for elective semester hour units as long as you have the pre-requisites fulfilled and can commit to participation in the course's requried MNSP residency component.
- You will NOT be charged additional tuition when you enroll in an MNSP course.
- MNSP courses require attendance at the MNSP Residency, which will be online in Summer 2020 and TBD for Fall 2020.
DIRECTED STUDY COURSES
-
Click here for the directed study course proposal form (Friedman's registrar will enroll you since you cannot independently enroll in a Directed Study course via SIS).
- Deadline to submit the directed study course proposal form for Summer 2020: May 20, 2020.
- Deadline to submit the directed study course proposal form forr Fall 2020: September 22, 2020.
- You may not use the mechanism of enrollment in a directed study course with a supervising Friedman faculty member in order to enroll in a course that is offered at a school that's not an approved cross-registration partner (no reciprocity) with the Friedman School.
INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
- You need to enroll full-time each semester; full-time is defined as a minimum of 9 semester hour units per semester.
- For more detailed information, please visit the Tufts International Center website: http://ase.tufts.edu/icenter/immigration/J1_students/maintainStatus.asp.
CROSS-REGISTRATION
CROSS-REGISTRATION – IMPORTANT ABOUT SUMMER 2020
- You may cross-register via SIS only for Tufts Public Health courses in the summer semester and you will not be charged tuition.
- You may not cross-register in the summer semester at any other Tufts school besides Tufts Public Health.
- You may not cross-register in the summer semester at Boston College, Boston University, Brandeis, or Harvard School of Public Health.
CROSS-REGISTRATION – IMPORTANT ABOUT FALL 2020
- Click here to review a more detailed overview of the cross-registration process. Friedman’s cross-registration partners (Tufts, Boston Consortium - Boston University, Boston College, and Brandeis, and Harvard School of Public Health) do not follow the same academic calendar as Friedman's academic calendar so please be sure to review the Host School’s academic calendar for their add/drop deadlines, and other academic dates and deadlines, final exams, and holidays.
- Please be patient with the cross-registration process—most schools (including Tufts) will not review/process cross-registration requests until close to the start of the Fall 2020 semester.
- Also, please note The Fletcher School does not have a pre-registration period so their courses will not be available to request via SIS for cross-registration until the first week of August 2020.

TUITION
- Fall 2020 tuition, semester fees, and health insurance are billed to your account in SIS during the first week of July 2020 and payment is due the first week of August 2020.
- To avoid a late fee, tuition and semester fees must be remitted in advance of the first day of Fall 2020 classes (September 8, 2020).

- Note: If you have a Hold on your account in SIS from the Tufts Health Sciences Bursar's Office or SAHA, you will NOT be able to register via SIS and you will need to contact the Bursar’s Office or Lucia Fenney at SAHA directly to resolve the Hold for you.
