This is right
I agree. I would even put MIT at the top by itself, because Harvard is not known for their engineering. BC and BU and Northeastern have all shifted so much in the past few decades, and so many people have no idea.

Things are shaking up in Boston. Most people who haven't been living here don't realize it.
I agree with the first two, but what about Tufts? And why are BC and Northeastern in the same tier...I lived in Boston for a hot minute about a decade ago and Northeastern was not thought of as on par with BC.

Always thought BC was a solid third on its own. Is that still correct?

Also strongly depends on major. Top Business Schools would include Northeastern and Babson and Brandeis; Top Engineering Schools would include MIT, then Tufts, then Northeastern. BU has always been known for Communications, but I am not sure that Communications is a major any longer?

Boston College
Boston University
Northeastern (I know, I know, others would put it higher, but they've gamed the system)
Also, Emerson & Berklee are excellent for acting/music etc.
