We went back recently, visiting the campus and trying to do an event here that would have benefited the students.

And treat Alumni like crap, not like family. The only upside is the campus, very pretty, beautiful buildings, nice beach. A few subway stops alongside the campus.

Emerson was in my top two, with Hampshire College in Amherst being my #1 top choice. I auditioned…read morefor Emerson's Theater Program (they held auditions in my hometown of NYC) got accepted, and then spent a weekend on campus in Boston, stayed on campus, ate in the dining hall, sat in on some Friday and Monday classes, had my admissions office interview and left campus. I TOTALLY fell in love with Emerson and could easily have gone there (it was like a smaller, friendlier version of NYU). It was a tough choice for me actually (I agonized over it) to have to choose between the two schools. Being from NYC, I chose Hampshire over Emerson ONLY because I wanted a smaller more rural campus experience for my undergraduate education (trading NYC for Boston wasn't a fit for me at the time) chances are, now today, I would probably choose Emerson. In every OTHER way, Emerson ticked ALL the boxes for me. In fact, in certain aspects, I wish I had gone to Emerson instead of Hampshire (because Emerson did have a LOT to offer me), because of the fact that Emerson had better options to study in places other than Boston, and Hampshire didn't (Emerson also has better facilities for Theater & Film than Hampshire does) BUT, it wasn't as academically experimental at Emerson, and I wouldn't have learned as much from getting grades as I did from detailed evaluations, but I would have been more creatively fulfilled at Emerson overall, because of the urban, artistic environment that Boston would have offered. Emerson had accepted me, and I was about to accept and enroll and become an Emersonian because I hadn't heard back from Hampshire (and I had worked pretty hard to get into Emerson) yet. Lo and behold, Hampshire then sent me my acceptance letter (hey, this was back in the early 90's) so I turned Emerson down. It was a tough, tough choice because although the two schools are radically different, they attract a LOT of the same kinds of students: artsy, quirky, creative, intellectual and independent. That's what made the choice SO difficult for me. The TOUGHEST choice I made in my undergraduate college career.

For my 100th review I am going to review my lovely Emerson College…read more I will admit, my first semester at Emerson I thought I was going to transfer to NYU. Then my sophomore year I thought I might transfer to school in London and actually I am sure I had lots of other plans to escape in the works, but each time I was convinced to stay -- and now I look back at Emerson and don't wish I had spent my undergrad anywhere else. I love Emerson because the students are PASSIONATE about what they want to do in life! If you enter as a freshman at Emerson as Undeclared you are an an outcast. This sounds strange but I LOVED that everyone knew what they wanted to do and was driven towards getting there. As a freshman you can dive right in and start working on films, writing for one of the school magazines or preforming in a comedy troupe. Then by your senior year you have tons of expereince for your resume. Emerson kids like to be involved 24/7. Then Emerson kids actually get a job in the field they studied! I went to Emerson for Marketing and Publishing and minored in Entrepreneurship, Photography and Management. Now I started my own publishing company and do all the marketing :) All my friends who majored in Film or TV are out in LA working as PA's or editors, my marketing friends are account managers etc. etc. It can be tricky to make friends at Emerson, because it is a campus in the city and everyone is involved in projects all the time. But get involved with a project and all of a sudden you have 10 new friends. The location is great because its right in the middle of downtown on the park which is perfect in the spring and fall. Its so nice to be in the middle of the city but have lots of green near by :) Its also easily accessible to Chinatown, Downtown, Financial District, Theater District, South End, Beacon Hill, North End etc. *I must admit that I know go back and sit on those Almuni panels that talk about how great Emerson is, I just liked it that much :) On a side note I love how Emersonians are fashionable people and dress for class! This is not one of those campuses where you go to class in a sweatshirt and pj pants. Since most Emersonians are style mavens or heading to their internship after class, its like a walking fashion show of hipster attire down Boylston. In fact, Boston magazine named the corner of Boylston and Tremont one of the most fashionable and attractive corners in Boston thanks to Emerson students!

I got my wisdom teeth removed here at Tufts, and I had an overall mixed experience that leaned…read moremostly negative, unfortunately. To start off, I had my procedure rescheduled multiple times. I had already planned my days off all of these times, so it was tough having to readjust multiple times. Most notably, this delayed my procedure by three months. Mind you, I had all four wisdom teeth impacted. About a month before my final rescheduled procedure, I started feeling a lot of pain and discomfort in my teeth every day. I called the residency and begged for them to please not reschedule again, as I was now feeling pain. Finally, they let me come in and I had my procedure done. To start off strong, they charged me $70 for a medication, which I paid for out of pocket. I was so desperate and in pain at this point that I paid because I wanted to get it done. Next, they took me into the room. Here is where it gets better and then worse. The nurses and my doctor were very nice and the procedure was done in about two hours. My situation, however, was a bit complicated because all four teeth were impacted, and my bottom teeth had complications at this point because the procedure was put off, so the teeth had to be cut in multiple pieces (it was so impacted that they couldn't take the tooth out whole). Despite the procedure itself going okay, the most appalling thing was the post-op journey. The team did not provide me or my guardian ANY specific post-op instructions. I was completely in shock. They didn't tell me when/what I could eat, when/how to use the syringe, how to clean my mouth etc... I understand that Google is a tool, but I would think they could at least give me some generic instructions? Needless to say, I am beyond lucky that I didn't get dry socket. I did however, have an unpleasant recovery. I had no idea what I was doing, and my total recovery was about 2 weeks. I am now multiple weeks post-op, and I still have lingering tooth and jaw pain. I had to go elsewhere to check it out. If you come here, proceed with caution. Make sure to ask for SPECIFIC post-op instructions. I would not recommend Tufts if you have complications or are older than average to get your wisdom teeth out. I'm just happy this is over with.

My last dentist fitted me for a mouthguard. I did not want without telling me that I was going to be billed for it. If you want a professional job, I do not advise going here. After three years of incompetency, I finally got two implants and a crown. I would've gladly paid the extra money to go to a professional clinic because the errors that I was subjected to here cost me money and left me with permanent damage to the lining of my mouth.

Unfortunately, after spending more time here, I've realized that most of the so-called support is just empty words.

They offer bridge programs to be able to skip your 4th year of your undergrad and go right into your first year of your graduate program a year early. They will then tell you that you are missing classes for your undergrad degree after already doing an entire fall semester of your graduate program. They will then tell you that you need to leave your graduate program to go back to undergrad classes in the spring. They tell you that you can go back into your graduate program the following fall after they have already taken your finical aide for your first year of grad school. You do not get refunded and will have to pay for your fall semester of your graduate program 2x. As you will have to pay for your fall graduate semester again after going back to complete your undergrad classes required. They currently are doing it to my daughter and a few of her fellow friends in PA school that were excepted early access. I am currently speaking with a lawyer to see if this is financial aide fraud and also if I have a racial discrimination case as they are only singling out students of color. If so I am going to be suing this school. They told me daughter she will automatically be accepted to PA school next fall as they keep a few slots open before they offer external student for this exact reason. That right there tells me this "happens" a lot. Seems like a scam to me if I'm being honest.
