TuftsAlert
When you are enrolled in the TuftsAlert system, you will receive text, phone, and/or email alerts during significant Tufts emergencies that may be critical to your—or your loved one’s—immediate safety.
Our crisis communications systems are powerful tools, but we cannot rely on technology alone in a crisis. In the event of an emergency, we all have the responsibility to help each other. It will take some time for messages to reach every person in the system. When you get an alert, follow the directions given and spread the word to others.
Students, Faculty and Staff
You are automatically enrolled to receive emergency alerts for all Tufts campuses. Please take a few minutes now to make sure your information is up to date.
Tufts Extended Community
If you are a Tufts neighbor, parent, family member, vendor, or contractor, we invite you to enroll in the TuftsAlert system, so you will be notified directly by text, phone, and/or email in case of significant emergencies affecting the Tufts University community.
You can also opt-in to receive text-only emergency alerts.
To Opt-In:
Text Tuftsalert to 67283
Once you opt-in to TuftsAlert using the Tuftsalert text, you will start receiving any emergency text messages that are sent by the University. You may unsubscribe from any time by replying LEAVE Tuftsalert.
Optional: Weather Closing Alerts
TuftsAlert subscribers have the option to sign up for notices about weather closings. Weather closing notices are strictly opt-in, and you will receive a text alert only if you sign up. Weather closings are communicated via multiple channels, and notices may be sent very early in the morning.
