Northeastern vs Emory

<p>I am trying to figure out whether I should go to Emory or Northeastern for undecided undergraduate business. Emory is full pay and Northeastern is giving me $30,000 total across all 5 years. Money is not really an issue though.</p>

<p>Emory will give me better placement and is a more prestigious school. I really like the social and academic aspects at Emory and the great Georgia weather. I love the campus but hate the immediate area around the campus and do not like the fact that I would need a car to go anywhere. I am also disappointed that there are no D1 sports. This makes me think that there is no school spirit. Finally I dislike how I cannot be in the business school until after 2 years in Emory College.</p>

<p>I really like the idea of doing co-ops at Northeastern but I don’t know if they are worth spending another year in college and missing out on a year of a full time job. Northeastern is definitely less prestigious but is on the rise. The school spirit seems to be there especially with hockey and I would absolutely love being in downtown Boston. Unfortunately I cannot ignore how Emory will most likely get me a better job after graduation.</p>

<p>I would love to hear any thoughts on this decision I will have to make.</p>

<p>How so?</p>

<p>Also, there are 4 and 5 year options at Northeastern. You do not have to spend the extra year. Many students who enroll with the intention of taking the 4 year option later choose to do the extra coop/experiential period and finish in 5 years.</p>
