[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]

What are these magical schools that parents in your circle prefer over these 4?  In particular, I'm interested in private, mid-sized, non-LAC, non-Catholic, near a major city schools that are worth the cost and not impossible to get into?[/quote]
Define, "worth the cost" and define "impossible". If Tufts gives you good fin aid, around 50%, then go for it. Otherwise only T25s are worth 100k a year, and thats only for specific majors.[/quote]

Depends on how much money you have. For some people 100k a year is not a challenge but instead a worthwhile investment. And they want their kids surrounded by others from a similar background. It is like an exclusive country club.[/quote]
