Tufts University is truly the best school out there. There is SO much to do on campus and so many clubs and events going on. The classes are amazing. The faculty are amazing. And all of the students are so interesting and cool.

I wouldn't trade my time here for the world. All the professors in my department knew my name, and their doors were always open. I had any opportunity I wanted to start a project or work on an extracurricular. Every student I knew was busy all the time because they filled all their free time with an extracurricular or project. I believe I got a quality education, and that I owe much of my post-graduation success to my time there.

The thing is, to enjoy this school you need to have an incredible level of self-motivation. There are hundreds of opportunities, and you can even create any opportunity you'd like, but nobody will hand you an instruction guide telling you how to take advantage of what the school offers. Most social circles develop out of student groups, so those students who were either more reserved, spent more time working on things off-campus, or didn't get involved with things outside of classes felt disappointed.Finally, some departments definitely foster better relationships with students than others. The most complaints I head came from engineers... but even then, I had engineering friends who loved it and did really incredible things there.

I believe coming to this school was the worst decision of my life. I have gone from High School hero to a zero. The campus is filled with nerds and ugly girls. Its cold and you are isolated to a minute campus with about only 5000 students. It is not called Toughs for nothing. My life back in my home town was great; since coming here I despise my very existence. Do not come here.
