I have gathered lots of information on both school, ie. ranking, bios of profs, course listing, comments from students, etc. but i am still trying to get a feeling for the students at both schools (I do think there are excellent professors at both) as well as the strength of the music department and the music scene on campus. I am aware of the Tufts/NEC collaboration. Also, diversity of student body is very important. And connection to a community outside of school is also important. the last thing my son would want was to feel that he is inside a bubble that reminds him of his midwest college prep school.
