<p>I know Georgetown is more prestigious, and I'm planning to follow a pre-med track and do some musical activities...</p>
<p>what do you guys think?</p>
<p>How do you 'know' Gtown is more prestigious? ;) And even if it's true—why does that matter to you? Consider these things.</p>
<hr>
<p>Now, Tufts is great for pre-medical sciences; excellent med school placement. Also a great early-acceptance program for spectacular undergraduates into Tufts' own medical school. (Skip the MCATs!) </p>
<p>Tufts also has invested a great deal of money and time and facilities into the music department and program. It has state-of-the-art facilities unrivaled at most other schools -- including the most acoustically perfect performance hall in the northeast! Further, you can consider taking courses (or doing a dual-degree) at the New England Conservatory (a program that only exists at Harvard and Tufts).</p>
<p>^Also New England Conservatory option is also available at Northeastern University in addition to Harvard and Tufts.</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure that Northeastern has a connection with the conservatory but that Harvard and Tufts are the only schools with which it has dual degree programs.</p>
<p>Degrees</a> & Majors</p>
<p>Am I wrong?</p>
<p>Not sure Seashore, oh that's hard to say, but Northeastern stated at admitted students day that you could take courses there.</p>
<p>the two schools have very different social cultures and attract different types of students. Keep that in mind as you make your decision. Academically, they're probably about the same. I don't really know which is better for pre-med, but Tufts has a great pre-med program.</p>
<p>Georgetown is more prestigious.. not by much.. and academically both are equal.. Tufts is better for pre-med</p>
