[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]St Olaf is an amazing school and nationally respected.   It also might be described as a “calmer” environment then Tulane, and easier to navigate.  I would choose st. Olaf!  Also, it’s Tulane which is amazing but you aren’t deciding between st Olaf and MIT.  [/quote]

+1 I am a Tulane grad. I am not sure what it is like now, but when I went although most regions were represented it was largely Texas and NorthEast, and being a west coaster I was shocked by the amount of wealth. Like family jet wealth. It was a party hard/study hard school, which if you can’t do, you crash and burn. I suspect it has shifted over the past decade, but I assume the location and the reputAtion in the south keep it fairly the same. Also, they remain awful at dealing with hurricane risk (still). I had merit aid; I would not go without aid. Networking is definitely strongest in the south and to some degree mid-Atlantic, but it’s not an Ivy. I had a great time, it was the right fit for me, but I would evaluate carefully bc it’s ridiculously $$$[/quote]
