Why Tufts: I'm not sure why I came to Tufts, I just sort of wanted to. I had no idea what I wanted to study or do with my free time. It worked out though. Tufts has so many different activities and courses to chose from that within the first few weeks, I had some idea as to how I wanted to spend my time here. Within the first few semesters, I also had some idea how I wanted to spend my time after college.
