[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most families in our circle would never apply to any of those 4. To pay $95-$100 k a year for schools well beyond the top25 is a bad investment. Tufts has faded over the last 25 years used to be highly regarded. BC and BU were formerly unspectacular local, commuter schools and NEU had a coop program. Lots of other choices especially for a full pay family.[/quote]

Your comment is exactly why I would consider Tufts. Avoid cheap, know-it-all families who don't understand what the college experience is supposed to be about. You probably also think SLACs are a waste of time. And would rather spend money on a car than on your child's education.[/quote]

DP here. In my view, Tufts makes no sense if William and Mary is an (in-state) option at half the price. My DC ruled out many schools on that basis, leaving a few T10 universities plus a handful of SLACS (Amherst, Williams, Swarthmore, Carleton, Bowdoin). [/quote]

I wish our state had an option like William and Mary, but it doesn’t. Reason why kids like my kid looked at places like Tufts, BC, Wake, etc. [/quote]
