Yo I’m asian too! Two are very comparable schools, but Tufts is ranked slightly lower than it should be because it has not been a research university for too long (was a LAC 50 years ago) and does not have strong graduate programs. Still, it definitely has extremely strong undergraduate teaching and focus, some of the best in the country along with the NESCAC LACs in its athletic league. From personal experience, I was also really conflicted back then choosing between these two as I was a premed/Bio major, which has equal undergraduate programs at both (even though Emory does have a stronger bio grad program). However, I later chose Tufts over Emory due to the Boston location and financial aid.
From an objective viewpoint, I would say Emory is stronger in business with its Goizueta business school while Tufts doesn’t even have a business school or major. Still, Tufts does have a econ major and I know that even though econ and business are separate, my roommate, a econ major who got in Dartmouth and has done a ton of econ in high school, says Tufts econ extremely rigorous. Also, though I don’t know how many students Tufts gets into top business schools, I know that Tufts does get quite a few students into Harvard Business school each year (Past JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Morgan was one himself who went to Harvard Business after Tufts). In addition, the top graduate school for the Tufts class of 2017 was Stanford, while the top graduate school for the class of 2016 was Harvard.
On the other hand, Emory doesn’t have a engineering school and Tufts should be stronger in engineering, as its engineering programs are quickly rising in name because administration is spending huge budgets on engineering facilities (take a walk around campus and you’ll see). Some seniors I know here have said that when they were freshman, they didn’t even think about doing engineering here because it was not that good then. Now, the engineering school is packed with students and Tufts has built numerous buildings dedicated to engineering and science, such as the enormous Science and Engineering Complex just last year.
Good luck. You can’t go wrong with either one, but hope to see you here in the fall!
