The most frustrating part of my school is the advising staff, both academic and financial. They never seem to respond in a timely fasion.

The most frustrating thing is the "NU Shuffle", where staff and faculty send you around to different places before you can find the true answer. I believe there can be a lack of communication throughout the campus, partially due to the number of people who attend school and work here.

Northeastern University has established itself as an academic giant. The courses I am taking have been proving to be very challenging this semester and my adapting to the realization that I may not always be able to get straight As has been a very frustrating process. However, being surrounded by professors, advisors, and peers that are always more than willing to lend a helping hand makes all the difference.

It is very expensive and there almost isn't enough financial aid for people who deserve to attend to be able to attend.
Elizabeth
Northeastern Shuffle. Trying to find help you get pushed around a lot and sent on a goose hunt to find the right office and people.
Jessica
The most frustrating thing is the "run around". WIth the coop program and the fact that this is a big school, issues are always complicated and unique to every individual's situation - whether it be scheduling classes, housing, or transferring majors and financial aid. Therefore it is very hard to find a staff who is able to solve a problem without sending you to another staff area to check in with their requirements and stipulations. It is a notorious problem at Northeastern.

people are too rich and think thay they wont have to work to support themselves, superficialiy, people think that status is the most important thing and dont believe in making a change
Samuel
the most frustrating thing is off - campus housing.They are too expensive since most of the people who go for it are low income based and these managements have the only aim to make money.

Our sports programs don't always have the support of the students, and therefore are generally not very successful or exciting (despite attempts to make them better recognized around campus)
Tracey
The lack of communication between departments (housing, financial aid, student services, etc)
