" I'm happy to be attending this University! I was very hesitant about coming here but I'm having the best time ever. Their co-op system is also very well designed and very beneficial for students to gain experience during the college years. "

" Overall, Northeastern University (now NU) is a great school for education. I cannot say I partake in a lot of its social aspects, but there are plenty of clubs to choose from, and greek life if you choose to join. I would say the people at NU are pretty docile and there isn't a crazy party, frat, or sorority scene. The educational value however is great, and the academic staff are top notch. "

" Northeastern University's pride and main differentiating factor is its co-op program- something invaluable for gaining work experience! Although tuition is expensive and definitely something to consider before enrolling, I've enjoyed my time at Northeastern thus far and feel it has better prepared for post-graduation life. "

" I love Northeastern! Their co-op program is amazing! They have a very international student population which is represented by a lot of different clubs. It’s very easy to find friends who have the same cultural background as yours! Their faculty members are incredible. So professional, knowledgeable but also human. Cannot praise them enough! "
