[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Northeastern's applications have gone from 91k in 2022, 96k 2023, to 98k 2024.

Those numbers are not fraudulent.[/quote]

In 2020 it was 64k applications, 2019 62k, 2018 62k.

Yes the latest ones are fraudulent.

DP here.  You and those like you seem to have so many claims in your posts, yet no citations.  Fascinating.

It seems your time may be better spent on anything but colleges. Or facts.[/quote]

You can easily Google those.  The fraud is obvious.[/quote]

Any chance you can point me to this google search that shows Northeastern is committing fraud?  Thanks in advance.[/quote]

"Northeastern’s acceptance rate plummets amidst new campus acquisitions and overcrowding concerns"
https://woof-mag.com/2023/05/04/northeasterns-acceptance-rate-plummets-amidst-new-campus-acquisitions-and-overcrowding-concerns/

"During the 2021-22 cycle Northeastern admitted almost 14,000 students, its highest population of students to date. Yet, this resulted in several issues, the most noticeable being overcrowding."

[b]"To compensate for the number of students, the university implemented forced doubles, triples, and quads in residential buildings; rooms designed to fit one to two students can now house up to four. Despite modified, cramped accommodations students pay the same price."[/b]

"Northeastern’s facilities, like its three dining halls, became notoriously packed, with [b]many students unable to find a place to sit and eat after using up a meal swipe[/b]. Marino Recreation Center, the primary student and faculty gym, became virtually impossible to find empty, with long lines frequently forming around popular equipment."[/quote]

More evidence of fraud is that for Fall 2022 Northeastern is only reporting 6,191 acceptances in their own statistics ( https://facts.northeastern.edu/ ) despite reporting almost 14,000 acceptances elsewhere (above).  The admission rate they are reporting is therefore less than half of the actual number.

The admission statistics coming out of Northeastern really are meaningless.[/quote]

You can't be that obtuse.  I have no dog in the hunt, but the admission statistics in the common data set are for Boston's campus.  Everyone knows there are 1,000 NU.in students not counted in the CDS.  Just like BU doesn't count their spring admits, or NYU their spring admits, or Hamilton.  This isn't fraud.  The only person who would use that word have a particular axe to grind.  [/quote]
