Tufts vs MDW-IL

[Robin05]

Hi, I got acceptances from both Tufts and Midwestern in Illinios. Im having such a hard time deciding between the two. The both are about the same price with Tufts' living expenses slightly higher. I felt more safe as a girl alone in chicago since I wont need mass transit, but MDW is brand new so I dont want to be a guinea pig. Any opinions?

Boston is plenty safe. A few hundred thousand college students manage to survive there each year. I wouldn't make my decision based off Chicago or Boston being however minorly safer than the other.

Thanks, you made a good point. Im just not used to the idea of mass transit yet.

I say pro. It's not the core of the curriculum. I'm pretty sure it's the same as they do as AZ. I mentioned it in the IL acceptance thread.

Sorry Jeffity, but that curriculum sounds like a con to me. Straight forward powerpoints and pdf would be easier than research and critical thinking with presentations. Just my opinion.
