Does anyone on this thread know if the cap for AP and Dual Enrollment credits to transfer in is 32 total? I am confused if my DS could bring in 32 AP credits AND also his Dual Enrollment credits on top of those 32?
Northeastern Oakland offers Off-Campus receptions, just enter the zip code in your portal. I saw Pasadena receptions on 4/10 and San Diego on 4/11.
Registrar can confirm but I think AP credit is capped at 32 credits, I have seen some parents state their kid got more accepted bc of dual enrollment (which makes sense bc those are actually college courses.) you can look at the transfer credit charts to see your college and what courses are accepted for what equivalents.

Hi, how is the academic advising in CSSH? My child indicated a major on his application because he felt he had to, but in reality he has no idea what he wants to study. What resources are available to help him decide? He is not in the explore program.

Agreed. I would not count on a transfer to Boston.

My son started in the Explore program and is now in CSSH. The Explore advising is better. There is a pretty low student to advisor ratio and the students take a first semester class designed to help with major selection. I wonder if itâs possible to switch to Explore if he is undecided? My son was reluctant to declare a major and leave the good advising but he did so at the end of first year to get on a co-op cycle.

My son (who applied EA and was deferred to RD) received this email yesterday so it sounds like decisions could come anytime between now and April 1st but based on past years most will come on 3/30 & 3/31 Iâm guessing? My son had planned on writing a âwhy Northeasternâ essay back when he was deferred but itâs been a crazy few months with gymnastics, pit orchestra and just keeping up with classes so it never materialized and probably too late at this point anyway. Hopefully he still has a shot.

Got the same email, and i was also deferredl!!! For EA decisions âwavesâ ended up being one day of decisions and then a day of waiting for everyone and then another batch of decisions. Hopefully itâs different RD. Does anyone know when the waves might start?

Wow. Is there a different board you are seeing this on? And I guess you are right thatâs all thatâs left 
Looks like people in state are getting acceptances today.
Someone on Reddit said they had a tab for admitted students events somewhere on the portal but it doesnât let them click.
Thank you!!

I found this article about EA college admissions (in general, nothing specific about Northeastern) insightful and somewhat of a push for more transparency in the admissions process. Not sure things will change, but it is interesting.
