<p>With all due respect, this really isn’t a choice. Columbia hands down. There is not one area of study that Tufts can claim superiority in. Ex-Presidents hail from Columbia. Other than HYP or Stanford, I could not justify choosing any other institutions over Columbia. Outside of those four hmmm MIT, Cal Tech, Penn, and maybe Chicago, but thats it. It would be foolish to pass on Columbia.</p>
