===Medford and Somerville===
Tufts' main campus is located on [[Walnut Hill, Medford, Massachusetts|Walnut Hill]] in [[Medford, Massachusetts|Medford]] and [[Somerville, Massachusetts|Somerville]], about {{convert|5|mi}} from [[Boston]] on the site of the original farm of Charles Tufts, the university's namesake. This campus houses all undergraduates in Arts & Sciences and Engineering, the graduate programs at [[The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy]] and all of the graduate programs in Arts & Sciences and Engineering. While the majority of the campus is in Medford, the Somerville line intersects it, placing parts of the lower campus in Somerville and leading to the common terms "Uphill" and "Downhill".[[Image:Packard Hall - Tufts University - IMG 0971.JPG|thumb|Packard Hall]]

The "Uphill" portion of the campus comprises the academic and the residential "Rez" quad (built on the former reservoir site) and is enclosed by a wrought-iron fence. Classes that contributed to the building of the fence are commemorated along its length. The academic quad contains the earliest buildings and was primarily built from the middle of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century. One of Tufts' first buildings, [[Ballou Hall]] was constructed from 1852 to 1854 and was designed in the Italianate style by the well-known Boston architect [[Gridley James Fox Bryant]]. Ballou Hall was later restored by [[McKim, Mead, and White]] in 1955–56, and houses the offices of the president, the provost, and several vice presidents and deans. Other notable buildings include: [[Packard Hall]] (1856), [[East Hall (Tufts University)|East Hall]] (1860), West Hall (1871), [[Goddard Chapel (Tufts University)|Goddard Chapel]] (1882), [[Goddard Hall (Tufts University)|Goddard Hall]] (1883), [[Barnum Museum of Natural History|Barnum Hall]] (1884), and [[Eaton Hall (Tufts University)|Eaton Hall]] (1908).<ref>Tolles, Bryant Franklin.

The most notable building is Carmichael Hall (1954), designed by Arland A. Dirlam. Dirlam also designed Bendetson Hall (1947) on the academic quad.<ref name=thennow /><ref>Sauer, Anne.

Many points on the hill have noted views of the [[Boston]] skyline, particularly the patio on the Tisch Library roof. It has been ranked one of the prettiest college campuses in the United States.{{citation needed|date=March 2016}}[[Image:East Hall - Tufts University - IMG 0952.JPG|thumb|East Hall]]The "Uphill" portion can be accessed with the memorial stairs. Designed by the [[Olmsted Brothers]] in the 1920s, the memorial stairs form one of the main entrances to the university and allows direct access to the engineering school from the academic quad. The engineering school is part of the Tufts's "Downhill" portion of campus. Notable buildings around the engineering school include Bromfield-Pearson Hall (1893), Robinson Hall (1899), and Curtis Hall (1894). Boston architect [[George Albert Clough]] is responsible for the design of Curtis Hall and Goddard Hall. Additionally, Arland Dirlam is responsible for the designs of many buildings downhill. These include Cohen Auditorium (1950), Hodgdon Hall (1954), and Jackson Gymnasium (1947).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://greenlineextension.eot.state.ma.us/documents/FinalEIR/techRpt/6.pdf|title=Historic Resources|access-date=March 24, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160607141020/http://greenlineextension.eot.state.ma.us/documents/FinalEIR/techRpt/6.pdf|archive-date=June 7, 2016|url-status=dead}}</ref> Other notable buildings downhill include the Mayer Campus Center and the Dewick Macphie Dining Hall.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://campusmaps.tufts.edu/medford/|title=Medford-Somerville Campus Map|access-date=March 26, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190424014043/https://campusmaps.tufts.edu/medford/|archive-date=April 24, 2019|url-status=dead}}</ref> Administrative offices also occupy the surrounding neighborhoods and nearby [[Davis Square]], where Tufts makes [[payment in lieu of taxes|payments in lieu of taxes]] on some of its tax-exempt (educational) properties.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://somervilleresistat.blogspot.com/2010/07/tufts-contribution.html|title=ResiStat: Tufts' Contribution|access-date=August 3, 2015|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151222152654/http://somervilleresistat.blogspot.com/2010/07/tufts-contribution.html|archive-date=December 22, 2015}}</ref>

===Boston===
The [[Tufts University School of Medicine|School of Medicine]], [[Tufts University Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences|Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences]], [[Tufts University School of Dental Medicine|School of Dental Medicine]], and the [[Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy]] are located on the Tufts Boston Health Science campus in the [[Chinatown, Boston|Chinatown neighborhood of Boston]], adjacent to [[Tufts Medical Center]], a 451-bed academic medical institution. All full-time Tufts Medical Center physicians hold clinical faculty appointments at Tufts School of Medicine.

The [[School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts|School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University]] (SMFA) is located on the Tufts Boston Fine Arts campus in the [[Fenway–Kenmore|Fenway]] neighborhood of Boston, next door to the [[Museum of Fine Arts, Boston]] and the [[Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum]]. The late-2022 opening of the [[Green Line Extension]] of the [[MBTA]] [[Green Line E branch]] light rail transit route offers a one-seat direct connection between the SMFA and the main campus of Tufts University in Medford.

===Grafton===
The [[Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine]] is located in [[Grafton, Massachusetts]], west of Boston, on a {{convert|634|acre|km2|adj=on}} campus. The school also maintains the Ambulatory Farm Clinic in [[Woodstock, Connecticut]] and the Tufts Laboratory at the Marine Biological Laboratory at Woods Hole on [[Cape Cod]].

===Talloires===
[[Image:TuftsEuropeanCenter.JPG|thumb|The Tufts European Center on the [[Talloires]] campus]]
Tufts has a [[satellite campus]] in [[Talloires, France]] at the Tufts European Center, a former [[Order of Saint Benedict|Benedictine]] [[priory]] built in the 11th century. The priory was purchased in 1958 by Donald MacJannet and his wife Charlotte and used as a summer camp site for several years before the MacJannets gave the campus to Tufts in 1978.

Each year the center hosts a number of summer study programs, and enrolled students live with local families. The Tufts Summit Program is for American high school students during the month of July. Tufts in Talloires is a 6-week program for Tufts undergraduates that extends from the middle of May until the end of June. Additionally, Tufts in Annecy is a 4-week program which provides French language learners a chance to practice and learn the language. The site is frequently the host of international conferences and summits, most notably the [[Talloires Declaration]] which united 22 universities toward a goal of sustainability.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ase.tufts.edu/europeanCenter/about/|title=Tufts University European Center in Talloires, France|access-date=August 3, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110805001259/http://ase.tufts.edu/europeanCenter/about/|archive-date=August 5, 2011|url-status=dead}}</ref> The Talloires campus has been ranked as one of the best branch campuses by the National Association of Branch Campus Administrators.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.tuftsdaily.com/news/talloires-program-ranked-among-best-branch-campuses-1.2844605#.UuKxGxAo7IU |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140201232938/http://www.tuftsdaily.com/news/talloires-program-ranked-among-best-branch-campuses-1.2844605#.UuKxGxAo7IU |archive-date=February 1, 2014 |title=Talloires program ranked among best branch campuses |first=Abigail |last=Feldman}}</ref>
