I’m a Holy Cross grad and parent of a HC grad. I’ve weighed in on HC in quite a few posts, including on the college’s great success with its pre-med program and the eminent physicians who have graduated from HC. I’m sure you can find those posts (if I cannot find them and link them here) through the search button above.

Tufts is a great school, no doubt. Hopefully you have visited both colleges and can use those visits to help you decide where you best fit in as I believe either one would be great for pre-med. You may find other things (campus, sports teams, location, food, etc) about one of the colleges that tilts the balance for you. I believe The Cross will be having an “accepted students weekend” or something to that effect–attending that, if it’s convenient, would help you get a look at some of your potential clasmates at least. Tufts probably does the same thing.

I think Holy Cross is the greatest college there is–but I’m biased, of course. Good luck with your decision—and let’s see if you or I can find the path to my earlier brilliant postings on the subject of HC and pre-med.

Found it: Here’s a link to another thread with some commentary of HC’s pre-med program
