What are your general comments?

I really enjoyed the interview. We took a tour of the school, met with students for a catered lunch, had the interview, then we met with Mark to talk about curriculum. The students I talked with were very happy. One student had transferred from North Carolina and enjoyed Tufts more. I actually liked Tufts the best of all schools that I visited, the only downside is cost.
