BU or NEU

<p>D all set for Northeastern (arts & Sciences), when moved off wait list at BU this week. She likes NEU more for campus and feel, but knows BU has better rep. Any thoughts? Is it so clear that BU is head and shoulders above NEU that she “has to” grab BU?? Thx for any feedback.</p>

<p>IMHO, your daughter should go to the school which is the best fit... for HER. Many kids turn down schools which have supposedly a better ....fill in the blank here... could be... a better campus, US News and World Report ranking, food service, location, ratio of females to males, distance from home, etc etc etc..., because the school they choose just feels RIGHT. My point is, she should go where she feels she will be happiest, with happiness being dependent on her own personal parameters. Sounds like Northeastern might be the school for her.</p>

<p>Thanks JJSmom- I think that's the way its going.</p>

<p>Northeastern is currently a highly underrated school. Trust me, by the time she graduates their reputation will be nearing BU's.</p>
