Campus Visit Notes for Tufts University

Visit Description:

I went to an info session and a campus tour. The info session was great, the guy was funny and knowledgeable and had a lot of anecdotes about the school, which was pleasant. He was really inspirational essay-wise, telling people which essays would not be received well and which ones would, which was really helpful.

Campus tour was nice, a bit longer than expected. We only saw middle and lower campus. The tourguide had a lot of stories and traditions to tell us about, and seemed very friendly. There was a lot of greenery and the buildings were all nearby. However, there didn't seem to be a general architecture style, which was kind of weird.

Nice overall, but not my top choice.
