| BU, by far. Knew many kids at Tulane. Drunken, Southern frat hell. None of the students particularly distinguished |

The answer to your question, as demonstrated by the responses in this thread, is that it depends on where you want to live.
Many in the Northeast would consider BU superior because they know it better and have a bias towards Northeastern schools. If you want to be in the South, they are likely to look on Tulane more favorably. |

Why do you care about "prestige"? Which, in itself, is a pretty nebulous concept. |
