Financial Aid.

<p>Does Northeastern give good merit scholarships and financial aid to students like me? My goods are over [url=<a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=75370%5Dhere%5B/url"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=75370]here[/url&lt;/a&gt;]. Thanks.</p>

<p>From what I always hear, Northeastern is known for giving lackluster financial aid packages.</p>

<p>Does Northeastern give good merit scholarships? Or does the college expect all the students to use their co-op money to pay for tuition?</p>

<p>it really depends on ur grades. the better u do on ur SAT's the more money ur likely to get</p>

<p>With your grades, you probably will get a scholarship, but I can't tell you about the amount. I just know that those with financial aid didn't really get that good a deal. Maybe $3000 etc., with a work study. Then again, that's what I just heard. I personally am paying full tuition so I wouldn't know. Just apply and see what they give you. Then compare between the schools whose giving you a better deal.</p>

<p>You'll probably get accepted into the honors program with your high SAT scores though. :)</p>

<p>If you go into the archives you will see some scholarship $. Some ppl were happy and others said that there is no way that they can attend.</p>

<p>Surprisingly there were a couple w far lower stats than your who got $10,000.
I think somebody named Matt who was going to major in engineering was one, but I am not positive about the specifics. I think his sat was around 1300 (maybe lower). We of course don't know what other factors may have come into play aside from stats. </p>

<p>Others got far better deals elsewhere, so they turned down NE. NE is pretty expensive.</p>
