Choosing between UCLA and Tufts

I’ve narrowed my college choices down to UCLA and Tufts University, and I’m struggling to choose one or the other. I am an international student so the costs won’t vary much for me. I want to take pre-med courses and hopefully get into med school when I graduate from college. (just fyi UCLA has already given me a major of biochemistry but not for Tufts).

I’ve heard a lot of opinions supporting both universities, so I’m having a real hard time trying to decide which school I should go to. Of course my main goal is to get into medical school so my priority would be a university that would prepare me better for that.

Otherwise, I’ve lived in Boston before and I am fine with the cold (which many of my friends were concerned about). I have not yet toured UCLA before, but I have seen glimpses of Tufts and I think the campus is pretty nice.

Up till tonight I was leaning towards Tufts, but after researching online, I’m leaning towards UCLA now (I am pretty indecisive).

Thanks in advance for answering my questions! and feel free to ask supplementary questions too
