Northeastern University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Jessica

There are things that I have learned about this school along the way that aren't the most appealing qualities, but truthfully I don't think it would have changed my decision or desire to be here. I have learned that it is hard to hold onto a good constant group of friends. The nature of this school is to study abroad or co-op in other cities every 6 months, so friends are constantly coming in and out of your life. The school is also in the city, so there are a wide variety of things to do.

How to save money.

Alexandra

I feel that I was well informed when at starting attending school. Perhaps I wish I had more time to research some of my teacher before I actually got to campus.

Amanda

Housing is a pain. You can't be shy. Living off campus is waaaaaaay too expensive unless you have roommates. And it is very expensive, and that is something that may have made me not come. You have to be very aggressive with the Financial Aid office to get what you need.

Kristen

red tape and long lines

Amelia

I wish I had known how much money I would actually spend. I need to stop my spending frivolous spending habits. There is just so much to do around campus and in the cty of Boston!
