<p>I posted this before but would like to get more information. I understand the quality of education is better at Duke and Cornell but NEU will offer me solid academics and coop. Im also looking to play football at these three schools so really what its comes down to is balance of life. What do you guys think?</p>
<p>Cornell has a great co-op program in its college of engineering. Don’t know about Duke.</p>
<p>Also, you have to decide if you prefer a city or a small town or whatever place Duke is in. That can make a difference in the long run. You should also think about if you enjoy being the smartest in a group more than having a lot of people around who can intellectually challenge you.</p>
<p>Are you being recruited for football? Cornell or NEU might be much better bets, since Duke is a Div 1 BCS school.</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure you can’t play football Division 1 AND do a co-op program, though.</p>
<p>yes and you can do coop while playing a d1 sport.</p>
<p>All I Know is that out of the three, Duke has the best weather.</p>
<p>The campus vibe of all three schools are very different. Northeastern and Duke are really preppy where as cornell had a laid back vibe.</p>
