I bet northeastern thinks they are your safety school and that’s why they deferred, If you show interest guarantee you’ll be accepted

  1. To people who don’t know what NUin is: google it, it’s not a deferral, it’s an acceptance.

  2. Is there a group chat going for admitted students?

I did, obviously, I just indicated on the common app that I was not interested in NUin.

2342

Were you in Doon School ? Do they have IB board there?

2343

The NUin program just means that you are doing your first semester abroad. Your second semester and next 3 years are all back on campus.
