What do you mean, “they usually cover a standard 2-person apartment type of deal”? Like, they give you funds to cover off-campus housing? If they explained how, do you remember them saying how that’d work?
So I was accepted into BC and NEU for entrepunership where should I go?
@badblood
She unfortunately didn’t explain super well; however, she said that a ton of people live off of campus and since they said off campus house isn’t available for transfers, they have a fund like in our financial aid that will help cover it
Hi everyone. I just created a college confidential account to help you guys because I read the threads but never said anything. I got into Northeastern Tuesday May 7th at about 2 pm MT (So 4 pm ET). I applied as an econ major to the college of arts and sciences on the April 1st deadline a couple hours before it expired. I had a completed application before April 15th, about a week before. Here are some stats.
So High school GPA went bad for me so for anyone suffering in that relm fear not I guess.
GPA was 82/100 with a lot of C’s and C+'s. Like a lot. A lot of C’s.
I had a combined ACT of 30 with my highest score being 28.
A lot of extracurriculars I played varsity soccer and was involved in a few clubs as officers and whatnot.
I went to the University of Denver. Its on the quarter system.
GPA: 3.8 (Q1: 3.67, Q2: 3.95 i think)
I was in the DU newspaper and Model UN, and I also was in our schools South Asian Student’s Alliance. I’m indian.
I thought I wrote a pretty good essay. I talked about the specific department of economics.
I don’t really know what more to add. If you want more information you can respond to this thread or whatever. Good luck everyone.
Oh one thing. They didn’t offer me housing. This is an issue.
@Vish88 Northeastern has not offered hosing to transfers for the last two years.
they have off campus housing legit 8 feet from campus
oh lit
its called lightview its pretty much on campus
Hey everyone, I got accepted to Northeastern two days ago. Im currently an undergraduate at a SUNY in Upstate NY. My stats are horrible lol HS GPA was a 95 before senioritis hit and idk what it was after a total of four years. My undergrad GPA is a 3.38, again horrible. I think why I got in is because of my love for the city of Boston. Although Im a native New Yorker, I spent the majority of my summers in Boston. I currently have family there and my uncle’s current scribe is a Northeastern undergraduate. In my essay, I talked about how good of a fit I would be in the school and how they have a combined major which fits the exact curriculum I am looking for. I believe that is what put me in because my stats are atrocious compared to some of yours. Anyways, I’m really really hoping I get adequate financial aid because I don’t want to pay more than what I am currently paying right now at my current institution. Living in Boston has been a dream of mine forever and it might finally become a reality, as soon as that financial aid package comes in lol fingers crossed
My SAT was a 1390
@TTTransfer10 Thank you so much Im going to look into that place it looks pretty good
@GordonHayward yeah thats where I hope to live but have to decide between BC and NEU and yeah it looks super nice and im pretty sure its run by the school
Lightview is already full guys lol
@Trransfer2019 Do you know of any other places near campus?
In addition to places near campus, what about areas to avoid?
Sorry guys @GordonHayward and @badblood ! I kind of just checked this and saw you guys mentioned lightview and checked it out immediately and once I pulled up the website it was like “Fall 2019 full”. Unfortunately, I do not know of any other places, but I do know the off-campus website has an apartment search. I’m sure we’ll all be posting in a facebook or groupme or something about roommates later tbh. I also do not know what areas to avoid, but i’ll ask my boyfreind’s friend who is a senior at northeastern and get his input on the best/worst places and let you guys know in the next couple of days?? Feel free to PM
Also, @vish88 and @TomSrOfBoston I called the FA office and they said that housing is included in the FA package. Look to my previous post about that if you’d like! I am sure you can also call and get more info too.
@Trransfer2019 Is there a transfer Fall 2019 facebook group? or groupme? Ive been looking for one but couldn’t find one at all
Oh dude, i’m not sure! I could start one but I literally do not know how to get people or anything. @GordonHayward
Anybody thinking they will release some decisions tomorrow?
