<p>I lol’ed at HarryJones’ comment.</p>

<p>That is all.</p>

<p>Except not really. The only reason I mentioned it is because it’s weird. I’m talking about 4.0’ers and 2200’s/33-34s</p>

<p>Yeah i have kids like that too who want to go to northeasterm. Co-op is the only unique part about it, but the honors college is good too.</p>

24

<p>^ Very true!! :slight_smile: Co-Op and honors is good.</p>

<p>But you know that moment when you walk on a campus and everything just clicks? That’s what it is like for me and NEU. I just loved it. The Journalism proffesors (I want to major in journalism) mostly have the highist degree in their area. They were so kind and I just looved it.</p>

<p>Everyone has what they like ^__^</p>

<p>NEU is not so great academically speaking. It’s VERY overpriced. There are state schools for a quarter of the price that are ranked much higher. NEU has a fancy campus and a fabulous website. They also have ritzy ad campaigns and a nice magazine. But it’s all for show. It is not worth the $36,000/yr in tuition, not even counting books, fees, and living expenses. It’s in a bad neighborhood, but NEU underreports the crime. The administrators are like corporate CEOs, out to get rich. The quality of the education is mediocre. It might be a decent choice if you want to go into engineering or criminal science, but other than that, save your money. It’s just hype.</p>

The offer isn’t guaranteed in writing anywhere on their site, but if you are NMF and have good stats otherwise I’d be surprised if you didn’t get full tuition.</p>

Once again, congrats on getting in.
