What are some stereotypes about Tufts students?
Many people think Tufts is the Ivy-reject school and that Tufts kids are really bitter that they didn’t get into Harvard or Yale, but that is not true. Tufts is an incredibly selective school, and Tufts students really are happy to be here. Tufts is fantastic because it’s a work hard-party hard school; it’s pretty rare that you get the combination of really fun, normal kids who are also brilliant. Most of us joke that everyone at Tufts is socially awkward, which may be true…but we’re all socially awkward together and we definitely know how to have a good time. Tufts is also known as pretty preppy and JAPpy (Jewish American Princesses), which I won’t deny.
