The Graduate Special Student Program was created to accommodate the student who wants access to superior educational opportunities without the responsibilities of committing to a graduate program. Since GSSP students take the same academically challenging classes as undergraduates and graduate students, you benefit from Tufts' long-standing tradition of excellence. Courses offered through the Summer Session are also available to you. You may enroll, for credit or audit, in up to four courses per semester.
Classes meet in the morning, afternoon, and evening.
