[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Historical legacy - known as the school ivy rejects went to. So it had really smart kids attending and prestige wise it was the same caliber as Emory Wash U It was regarded as far better than BC for example. But that was 20 years ago. I think I’m the next 10, Tufts is one of those schools that falls in no man’s land, it’s just ok at Engineering, no Business School, it’s holding onto a Liberal Arts agenda but doesn’t have the endowment or resources that Williams or Amherst have. [/quote] But it’s much larger than Amherst and Williams. There is definitely a niche for mid size liberal arts colleges. Many kids find the school with less than 2000 kids to just be too small. And Boston remains the best college town in the country. So if you want a traditional college experience (meaning no co op’s) and a campus, it’s BC or Tifts for the kids who aren’t winning the lottery ticket to MIT or Harvard.[/quote]
