  • Tufts University

    Posted by Cynthia Velez on 9/16/2025

     

    Dear Tufts community member,
    I’m pleased to announce that beginning with the fall 2026 entering class, U.S. undergraduate students whose annual family income is under $150,000, with typical assets, will attend Tufts tuition-free.

    This new program, the Tufts Tuition Pact, underscores our commitment to ensuring that a world-class education is within reach for talented students from all socioeconomic backgrounds.

    The Tufts Tuition Pact builds on existing programs that increase access to a Tufts education and ensure that, in many cases, the actual cost of attendance is significantly lower than the university’s posted cost of attendance:
     
    • Students whose family income is less than $60,000 a year typically receive financial aid packages with no loans at all.
    • We are provisional members of the American Talent Initiative and have committed to increasing our percentage of Pell-eligible students. Over the past two years, we have already grown our enrollment percentage from 11 to 16 percent.
    • We are one of the few universities that meets 100 percent of the demonstrated need of every admitted student.

    The Tufts Tuition Pact continues our longstanding efforts to minimize the need for undergraduate student loans by increasing financial aid scholarships and grants. As a result of the more than $143 million of undergraduate financial aid that the university provides annually, the average amount of student debt post-graduation from Tufts is under $15,000, significantly less than the nationwide average of nearly $40,000. This helps set our graduates up for long-term success.

    The Tufts Tuition Pact has been made possible by the generosity of generations of donors who have made gifts to help meet student financial need. I am grateful for our community’s ongoing support, which helps make our financial aid program sustainable and will allow us to provide more aid in the future.

    I encourage you to read more about the Tufts Tuition Pact on Tufts Now.

    Best regards,

    Sunil Kumar
    President, Tufts University

  • Construction Industry Council of Westchester & Hudson Valley, Inc.

    Posted by April Miller on 1/8/2025

    For the past 25 years the Construction Industry Council, along with our partners in the trades, we have hosted a career day for students in the Hudson Valley.

    This is a great day to find out about the trades and have some hands-on experience with many of our unions and contractors.

    The past number of years we’ve held the event at Rockland Community College, run during the school day and they come on a bus with their counselors and have a great experience. This year it will be on Friday, March 28th. The event is so popular with the students and schools it fills up quickly.

     

    New this year, will be a Construction Career Fair on Thursday evening, from 5:30 – 8:30 for students, parents and counselors.

    We’re creating this evening for a couple of reasons, mainly to increase the opportunity for more students to come, as we have a limited number of spots available on Friday and not all can attend. But also, it gives the opportunity for parents to attend with their child and learn about these opportunities and the career paths that are out there and have very positive income potential. Please see the parent flyer HERE

  • Physical Therapy at SUNY Upstate!

    Posted by April Miller on 11/1/2024
    Hello from SUNY Upstate,
    We have a lot of news to announce regarding our Physical Therapy program and DPT Early Assurance!
     
    1. Our Physical Therapy students can now complete their DPT degree in 2.5 years (8 semesters) whereas the previous program took three years.  One less semester lowers the overall cost of earning their DPT degree and gets the graduates into the job market sooner. 
     
    1. We’re officially no longer requiring the SAT or ACT for applicants to our 3+3 and 4+3 DPT Early Assurance programs.
     
    1. We have our first 4+3 DPT Early Assurance agreement!  We’ve partnered with SUNY Potsdam and admitted 4+3 students can attend SUNY Potsdam for Exercise Science (Clinical track).  The benefits:
     
      1. They will have a faculty advisor at Potsdam who advises them during their undergraduate years. 
      2. The Exercise Science (Clinical track) curriculum has been designed to meet all prerequisites for the Physical Therapy program at SUNY Upstate and all the degree requirements for the Exercise Science, BS degree at Potsdam. 
     
    Admitted 4+3 DPT Early Assurance students can continue to attend the accredited college of their choice, for the major of their choice.  And all admitted 4+3 students will also work with the DPT Early Assurance Admissions Advisor at SUNY Upstate.  
     
     
    1. 4. Lastly, we’re hosting DPT Early Assurance Virtual Information Sessions in December for high school students considering a career as a Physical Therapist.  High school students of every grade level are welcome to attend.  Please share the attached flyer with your students.
