Tufts First-Year Global Programs
Tisch College is pleased to offer two unique experiential education opportunities for incoming Tufts students to begin their college journey learning while doing community work, mastering a foreign language, and giving a global kickstart to their college life.
The Tufts Civic Semester and the Tufts 1+4 Bridge Year combine substantive work at a nonprofit organization, Tufts coursework, and cultural immersion to foster profound personal and academic growth. Each program is distinct: Civic Semester participants take classes together on the Tufts campus in August before departing for one of two service locations where they study the local language and work part-time at a community organization. Students return to campus for their Spring term with a full semester of academic credit, allowing them to graduate in four years. Tufts 1+4 is a year of full-time international work before students begin their four years of study on campus. In one of four countries across the globe, students make a difference on an issue they care about, have time to explore new interests and passions, and return with a deeper sense of self and a broader perspective on the world.
