darn, that would’ve helped me. if i get deferred they’ll see my first semester grades though, right?
Hoping I at least go 1 for 4 on my Boston schools lol
Just got into UNC Chapel Hill, so I think I will withdraw my Northeastern application. Good Luck, everyone!

Thinking about visiting next month, would that be too late for demonstrated interest for RD?
I would say it is a little late but doesn’t hurt if it isn’t too out of the way for you

definitely doesn’t hurt for you personally to get to know the school and see if it’s a good fit, even if it’s late for it to check a box for them! it won’t make or break your application!

Do any of you know current students at NU? Is it possible to build friendships and connections despite co-ops and students moving in and out? Is there a sense of belonging?
That’s a big concern for my student - missing out on a traditional college experience. I see it as the college of the future offering more real world opportunities. But it’s not about me. 
Thoughts?
Okay, I genuinely want to see it, but I have to wait until my feb break
All of the friends that I have at Northeastern are very happy there, though I wouldn’t be able get into specifics for you

Should I let my admissions counselor know that I’m visiting next month? Or should I just visit
yes!! i have quite a few friends at NU and they love it. they’ve maintained friendships with students who have gone abroad and come back, and being in a city, they’ve also met lots of people outside the university. and on top of that, through co-ops, they’ve made friends internationally. i think that it can only be an asset to meeting people
