<p>Hi lolabelle -</p>
<p>The 5 year program IS doable, it’s just challenging. :-)</p>
<p>Also, I don’t think that regular Tufts students can take any course at SMFA.
They can take any of the courses in continuing ed (nights and weekends), but I think that only SMFA students or combined degree students can take the day courses.
Combined degree students have registration priority because of the demands of their program, but a lot of SMFA students get waitlisted for the more popular studio courses at the Museum School which is probably why regular Tufts students can’t take the day courses there. There are studio classes at Tufts though.
The definitive answer to this question can probably be found within the SMFA and/or Tufts websites.</p>
