Hey, I posted this a couple of weeks ago but my situation changes so I need help deciding again…
Northeastern:
-no financial aid: my family can afford the cost but I have a little brother so…
-I have about 3 or 4 classes that I need to complete for general education requirements
UCSB:
-no financial aid as well (in state)
-I have 9 classes that I need to complete for General Education Requirements
What exactly changed from before?
@PengsPhils Oh wait I’m so stupid.
In the last post, I mentioned about how my dad wanted to quit his job but he’s starting to like his job so I don’t need to worry about the cost anymore. If I can afford both schools, which school is better?

Right now, it still seems like most of the points from the other thread still stand.
Do you overlap at any point in college with your brother? If so, it’s more or less the same effect as your dad’s situation. If not, then as said before, it comes down to fit. As said before, you like Northeastern as a school (it sounds like fitwise) and the co-op program, but aren’t sure on NU.in or how you feel about the financial effects. It really comes down to which set of things there wins out.
Hi! Have you visited both schools and did you have a preference? Northeastern is semester vs UCSB is on the quarter system, so the additional GE’s isn’t apples to apples.
