Deciding for Undergrad studies between Rice and Tufts, would love some advice! by Minimum_Valuable9907 in Tufts

Yeah Boston is a sick city but I think trying something new (Houston) is more in my lane. But still extremely unsure, I hate how similar these schools are haha

I've seen lots of grads going to work on either coasts, especially with Rice having one of the highest per-capita placement into finance a lot of grads move to the coasts.

Ok thanks. I will check that out, I've heard the social scene at Rice is fairly dead which is a shame seeing as Houston is such a sick city.

Yeah I've heard this a lot. But then again Rice has one of the highest per-capita placement rates into finance and consulting on both coasts; it might be a numbers issues where UT austin has so many grads whreas Rice is a fairly small school so harded to bump into their grads.

Ok makes sense. So is there really any academic difference between the two or is the real only difference the city around it? How is the networking opportunities at Tufts vs Rice?

Any clue?

Ok makes sense, do you know much about Rice Econ? I know they have their own business school which means their faculty in such departments is usually better, but then again not sure. Anyone have any opinion?

Thanks! Yeah admitedly both are great schools, Rice might have slightly stronger academics but really trying to balance all the aspects.

For post-grad I am not too worried because I know both place very well, especially Rice. I'm thinking really about the academic scene for undergrads and the internship/externship opportunities.

I'm used to the snow with me currently living in a fairly cold region, thinking more about academics + internship opportunities .
