It's expensive, as most private schools are, and it bothers me that there aren't better financial aid packages for middle class students. Still, the university helps as much as they can and there are a lot of resources that we enjoy as Tufts' students. There are a lot of research opportunities available to undergraduates, even during freshman year, which is a unique quality. And who could ask for a better mascot than an elephant named Jumbo? read full review

Though Tufts is pretty weak in terms of financial aid, the experience of being there makes any sacrifice worthwhile. It is a fairly small school, but it is absolutely a melting pot of all sorts of people, not just New England prep school graduates. The faculty members are brilliant, and I have not come across a single instance of unfriendliness from staff or student body. The most important thing to do is to insert yourself directly into the life of a Tufts student; in other words, get involved immediately! read full review
