I think Tufts University has an awesome student body. Most people are very kind, open-minded and willing to help each other out. There are a lot of ways in which the school tries to support different groups in campus. I’ve appreciated the fact that I came in not having a computer science background and felt comfortable joining the field. Furthermore, I’ve appreciated the spaces for women in tech on campus. The housing is not guaranteed for all 4 years so that can be a stressful thing the manœuvre. The academics can be very rigorous and a culture of perfection plagues the student body. But if you simply run your race and steer clear of comparison, your experience on campus can be relaxed. As expected the winters are pretty brutal and no, you don’t get used to it unless you’re from here.
