[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't Wellesley above Tufts? It's a consistent top 5 ranked LAC and it has direct cross registration privileges with MIT.

Here's WSJ/THE's ranking of the top 10 in Boston: https://graphics.wsj.com/table/COLLEGE_RANKING_BOSTON

Here's Niche's: https://www.niche.com/colleges/search/best-colleges/m/boston-metro-area/

Isn't it girl's only school?
So half of the population is not interested.
Out of the half, majority is not interested in LAC, so[/quote]

Wellesley is one of the Seven Sisters schools.  For those from Boston, Tufts and Wellesley are very close to the same level, which is, very difficult for admittance. [/quote]

These schools are all similarly very difficult for admittance.
Looks like Wellesley belongs to this group very well.

Utterly meaningless given how NEU “games” its stats. Easy example - it accepts many students into first semester abroad or in CA and none of those students scores are factored into these number. [/quote]

Many schools do that - it is a non issue, much to your dismay. [/quote]
