Events Calendar Criteria

The Tufts University events calendar provides a listing of official events taking place on all campuses, as well as off-campus locations. The Communications and Marketing team will review submissions within 72 hours and reserves the right to reject submissions that do not meet the following criteria. If you have questions or encounter problems submitting your event, please let us know.
