Tufts vs Boston College

<p>So, </p>

<p>Which would you choose and why? Could you be specific i.e. type of student body, athletics, atmosphere, food, dorms, etc.</p>

<p>For me, I would also have to look at what my potential major is and gear that toward the school I pick. I can't speak for Tufts since I am not a student there nor have I visited the campus, but I would probably pick BC hands down. </p>

<p>BC's athletics clearly beats Tufts since BC is a D1 school with plenty of sports to go around, including football, basketball, and hockey. The student body is not very diverse as about 3/4 of the students are caucasian, but are generally very accepting of other people. Aside from that, BC has a great overall environment and a beautiful campus to boot. The only way to truly find out is to visit both campuses and talk to the students there.</p>

<p>This one is funny for me because my son is a senior at Tufts and his girlfriend of 5 1/2 years is a junior at BC. Four years ago, S was unwilling to consider BC and a year later girlfriend would not consider Tufts. Both have been very happy with their decision.</p>

<p>S is a CS in Engineering major and girlfriend is in the Carroll School of Management.</p>
