Prospective Freshman Questions

<p>1) I plan on going onto a college road trip in August, but I won't have enough time to catch a campus tour or info session on NEastern. Will that hurt me in admissions? Also, it said on the Common Data Set that the level of applicant's interest is "not considered". </p>

<p>2) Can I just walk onto Northeastern's campus and tour around myself with being on a tour, just to get a feel for it?</p>

<p>3) How much merit aid do you think that I could get? I have a 34 ACT, 3.99 UW GPA, tons of EC's + community service + work experience. </p>

<p>If it matters, I am applying for the 6 year BS/DPT [doctor of physical therapy] program. Thanks =]</p>

<p>The 6 year physical therapy program is very competitive. You also have good stats so you should be a strong candidate. You should also recieve some sizable merit aid probably 10-16k. Definitely show interest and apply early action if Northeastern is your top choice. Good luck!</p>

<p>Thanks a lot NEasternkid!</p>

<p>But, wait… can someone answer #1 please?</p>

<p>^Just apply EA to show interest. I’m not sure if I even filled anything out when I visited, so I don’t know if they keep records (they very well could though, but I think applying EA is your best option!).</p>

<p>Okay thanks blink, I will just stop by and go in if I can. I will definitely be applying EA!</p>

<p>EA is DEFINITELY the way to go… wayyyyyyyyyyy better chances! :)</p>

<p>Friend visited after, not before acceptances so I do not think it matters, for admissions purposes whether you show interest by visiting or not.</p>
