I’d say neither because based on the numbers neither are very helpful in helping you get into the best professional programs. I do find it a bit perplexing that your parents want to compare financial packages but nevertheless have $700 (10 applications at about $70 a pop) to drop on college applications. But I guess sometimes you have to spend money to save money ;)

If you have to choose it’s up in the air. I can’t speak for BC but the dorms here at Tufts are modeled after actual public housing developments. Also if you’re looking for school spirity you’d definately have to take BC, I mean, there is just no comparisson. But then again Tufts is better at putting people into top professional programs, so…

I’d say check the careerservices at Tufts and BC and base your decision on that.
