Btw, Tufts is most certainly not the preppy-dominated haven you describe. Had it been, believe me, my D would not ha applied. Tufts has a healthy representation of a broad swathe of student types. And definitely as “cool” as Berkeley (and just as prestigious, imo., known for its whip-smart, socially engaged students). As for contact with professors, this is a real plus at Tufts. Its size and LAC-feel encourage it. It’s also not so cutthroat, acc. to D, even though its students are likely equally as driven as Berkeley’s.

Good luck!
