Drunk and drunker.

Tulane is a joke of a school. Nobody takes their alum seriously.

I would have said exact opposite and no skin in game. Unless kid is huge partier when New Orleans would be desirable.

Aren't you admitted directly to Bucknell's business program but need to apply to Tulane's once you are already admitted to the University? That might matter.

Tulane. How is this even a question?

Lots of great insight & observation offered about both schools in this thread. Based on my knowledge & experience,almost every post in this thread thus far is accurate.

never heard of either school

We’ve hired analysts from both schools at the investment firm I work for

Bucknell. My brother went there in the 90’s and is working on Wall Street. Campus is beautiful and safe. Nola is so scary right now , I could never send my kid there. Tulane is very Jewish and Bucknell very Waspy. Totally opposite schools.

pp who mentioned trinity is spot on - it is a great comp to Bucknell - considered bottom of Nescac in terms of reputation but places top of Nescac in finance. Trinity and Bucknell folks all over the street and both will provide real opportunities if u work alumni network and grind - more so than tulane, villanova, or even BC (although BC alumni network much better than other 2). Villanova was a direct comp to Fordham, Jay Wright made it better and a clear winner when comparing cross admits

I don't think there is a clear choice. He should go to whichever he likes better. That said, I grew up in PA and some of the most unlikeable kids from my high school went to Bucknell. I have a negative perception of it that persists, reinforced by stuff like the anti-LGBT incident a few years ago, and I don't think I'm alone in that.

Neither.
Do Villanova for business.
