If adnitted you would have a decent shot at merit aid, which runs from $5000 to $32,000/year. Note I say if admitted. Northeastern values showing interest and does not like being considered a safety school.

Are you a National Merit finalist?

You should be a solid match and should also competitive for merit, but it’s just that - competitive (also holistic, no guarantee lines besides NMF) Only way to know is to apply, as with anywhere without guaranteed merit.
