If you mean relative to how it's generally ranked (~35 on USNWR), I'd say it's pretty much where it should be relative to peer schools.</p>

<p>I wouldn't say it is over rated at all. Yes it is rather pricey, but it is a private school doesn't that come with the territory. And it isn't one of those schools that is ridiculously expensive for an average education. Lil<em>Wayne</em>Fan, I don't know where you are from, but maybe for those who live back east it would be over-rated because basically if you are Irish Catholic/ Italian Catholic and live in the New England area that is where you go, because that is where basically your whole family went. But out here in California it is definitely not over- rated</p>

<p>It's a private school so it's guranteed to be obscenely expensive and complaints that it's overpriced are inevitable. My favorite teacher who's like another parent to me is an alum and feels very satisfied with her education there. That's really all I can say about it.</p>
