Trying to justify the cost of Northeastern, but I want to go into business and these are my choices.
I live in California, want to stay there, but want to make sure I get the same business opportunities.
Northeastern is phenomenal for business because of the co-op program-- two of my cousins go there and already have jobs lined up for after they graduate! If you want to stay in California, do so. You will not be at a disadvantage when you graduate, and there’s always grad school as well.
Cost is a legitimate consideration. If you have to take out loans, it’s probably not worth it to go NEU even though it is an amazing school and the co-op program is top notch. Either of the other schools will serve you well. You won’t get the EXACT same opportunities, but you will get good ones at any of these schools. If you can afford any, then it is your prerogative to pay for NEU, which is the best one listed here but not the only route by any means.
