[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the Tufts/Emory level, it really doesn't matter. Tufts' SAT scores are slightly higher, acceptance rate a bit lower. Both take kids of the same caliber GPA-wise.

Emory's acceptance rate is 13% for this latest cycle, I think PP got there years mixed up as they accepted a lot of students the year before due to covid. Georgetown and Emory are more selective because of the soft factors needed to get into the school. If your student has good stats and shows interest Tufts will accept them 8/10 times. [/quote]

But it's true. On face value Tufts would seem harder to get into than Cornell, but we know that's not true. The soft factors make the other schools harder to get into. [/quote]

This post makes me chuckle as my DH & I went to Cornell (which I only went to because I was WL at Tufts) and we loved it. But as hard as we rallied for Cornell our DD chose Tufts. In fact we have several Cornell friends who’s kids chose Tufts. It seems the thought of “centrally isolated” is more than today’s kids can take. I’m sorry they miss out on the incredible Cornell experience, but know they are getting a different and no less exceptional one at Tufts. [/quote]
