No. Tufts is a very serious academic institution. Tulane is not Having similar acceptance rates or rankings in US news doesn’t change the fact

No affiliation with Tufts, but it draws the most serious and nerdy student

No doubt Tufts is objectively more selective but I don't think it is perceived as "better" in most of the country. Tulane has strong name recognition. There are not any Grisham books involving Tufts, are there?

Are you kidding?? I don’t have a kid at either but know both schools well and currently know many kids at both. Tufts is by far the better school with smarter, more serious and truly academic students. Tulane is a party school with smart enough kids who didn’t chose their college for academics reasons. Tufts is also better known and more highly regarded in professional circles. No comparison.

Tufts is a great school, but you are clearly not informed about Tulane's academics and its standing in professional circles. It's far more than a party school for rich kids.

LOL, hope your kid is rocking it out at Northeastern and banging all the Boston peeps they can! Maybe some of the Harvard, MIT, BU, BC, and Tufts will rub off on them and they'll get that "I attended school in Boston" trophy!

Harvard isn't even in Boston.

Only Northeastern and Boston University are in Boston.

Lesser known fact: Stanford is not in Palo Alto (it is in Stanford, CA)

Even lesser known fact, Stanford used to be a Junior College but now it is a Junior University.

We had many Tulane students at MIT after Katrina. The agreement was they HAD to go back to Tulane after the semester. They were all very nice, able to keep up with the coursework. We were so sad to see them leave when it was time.

I stand corrected, MIT only took 6 students...apparently I knew most of the students from Tulane lol!

Harvard took 25 and BU 320.

NP, but I, too, had the image of Tulane students being less academically focused. I think of Enory and Tufts as akin. So I checked: Tufts’s admitted student profile for 2021 shows a mid 50% range for SAT of 1490-1540 (Emory’s is identical), vs Tulane’s mid 50% range was 1410-1500. I still think that Tufts attracts the more serious student, but Tulane has plenty of smart kids, too.

Emory is better than Tufts and Tulane. Emorys peers are Georgetown ,Notre Dame, WashU etc.

Excuse me, but Emery and Georgetown, or not even in the same atmosphere!

Emery and Georgetown or not comparable. Give me a break. Emery is it fine school but it’s not in the same league as Georgetown.

Students want to go to Lane for that reason it’s competitive, it’s the simple law of supply and demand. I find some of the cut men’s above in which people state that they have no affiliation or connection to particular schools and then they passionately argue why these are the best schools… it’s strange.

Actually, Tulane is the ivy league of the south. It was going to be in the magnolia league which was going to be the ivy league of the south, but Tulane opted out because they wanted to focus on academics.

It's Emory with an O. And you're delusional. Emory is better at some things while Georgetown is better at others. Regardless Tulane and Tufts aren't the same level and frankly Tufts is better than Tulane.

Tulane is currently selling all their hospitals. Tulane will not exist after the news breaks about the human experiments they've done since forever.
Ask Tyler Perry.

I don't know much about Tufts so I'll stay out of the Tulane v Tufts discussion you are likely having with yourself. BUT Emory is not even comparable to Georgetown. No offense to Enory but Georgetown is just that good, that selective, and yes, better.

This is an obvious typo. Calm down.
