<p>got my letter today! a question to some who are familiar with NEU, can you tell me something about life in this college and what makes it special from other schools?</p>
<p>That exactly is what I would also like to find out for myself.</p>
<p>Northeastern is known for their "Co-Op" system which allows students to work within the subject of their major while still in college.</p>
<p>I plan on majoring in Art History and completing my study abroad year while I also intern in Florence, Italy.</p>
<p>Northeastern is also situated in Boston, which is (according to most) the best college town, ever. Their facilities are fantastic (I visited and was blown away) and I would strongly recommend visiting NEU if you are on the fence with your decision.</p>
<p>Hope that helps!</p>
<p>But I'm sort of put off because it's SOOOO small in terms of land area - only 55 acres!!</p>
<p>Its 67 acres. But who's counting? lol</p>
