Student Life

I'm Eileen Guo, a freshman at Tufts.

As a first-year student, one of the most common questions that I'm asked is how I like Tufts.  I often find it difficult, however, to put my enthusiasm for Tufts into a few, short sentences.  I love the small, close-knit campus just as much as I love venturing out into the excitement of downtown Boston.  I love the academics, which constantly challenge me to ask tough questions, just as much as I love the numerous social and extracurricular activities.  And I definitely love the myriad of opportunities that Tufts offers even its freshman class.  At Tufts, we really do have the best of both worlds: a world-class research university with the warmth of a small, liberal arts college.  With its beautiful campus, award-winning food, and passionate students and faculty, Tufts is the perfect place to spend four years."
