<p>I am an international student, deciding between University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign and Northeastern University for a psychology major. While the academics at UIUC are supposed to be 'better' as it is a more well known university and the program is ranked much higher, Northeastern's Co-op program interests me as it is usually hard to find internships for psychology related jobs, and Northeastern's affiliations would help me do this. However I'm not sure whether UIUC will lead me to better Post graduate schools. Would anyone be able to help me with this decision... </p>
<p>Can you give us (tuition+ R&B) - (grants+scholarships) = ?
What’s your parents’ budget?
If money is no matter, I’d choose Northeastern, especially as an international student since it’s in Boston (which beats Urbana-Champaign hands down).</p>
