Student Essay Contest: Africa’s Role in the Global Economy

Fletcher’s Institute for Business in the Global Context has launched a student essay contest in conjunction with an upcoming conference, Africa’s Turn: The Promise and Reality of the Global Economy’s “Final Frontier.” Winners will have their papers published, will earn a cash prize, and have their travel to the conference subsidized. The deadline for essay submission is September 26.

“Map Your Future” Admissions Pathway

Last year, we launched our new Map Your Future program, which allows students in their final year of undergraduate study to apply for admission two years in their future. This is a perfect option for students who have a clear sense of their career goals and graduate school intentions, but know that they want to accrue professional skills – ranging from the Peace Corps to investment banking – before graduate school. Please encourage your students to consider this option for either our Master of Arts and Law and Diplomacy or Master of International Business program. Email us at fletcheradmissions@tufts.edu with any questions.
