[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe if you’re rich. The kids I know who went were UMC and felt out of place.  Lots of big money, expensive private school, daddy buys me every luxury and convenience kind of money.  Not like daddy pays my rent.[b] Like daddy picks me up in a private plane and spent $100,000 on my dressage horse kind of money .[/b][/quote]

LOL ! The above is pure BS.

Or maybe you're conflating NU with Duke.

Northwestern University does have wealthy students, but wealth is not flaunted or obvious.

Easy to get to Chicago. The campus setting is spectacular, but there really is no center quad. Divided between North side of campus which is mostly engineering & STEM and South campus which is artsy & liberal arts.

Couple of beaches & free sailboats for student use. Spectacular gym placement overlooking Lake Michigan.

Greek life is available if desired, but does not overwhelm the campus social scene.

Fairly low key, very brainy, and accepting.

The campus does make most "Most Beautiful College Campuses" lists, but the architecture is not as cohesive as that found on many small school campuses.

NU students are brilliant, hard-working, ambitious, non-judgmental, & friendly.

To the poster who cried the career office circa 2010, that was during a very tough job market which followed the national real estate market collapse.

Easy access to both US coasts as well as to the largest city in the Midwest (Chicago).[/quote]

Not BS. It was my nieces’s roommate experience. [/quote]

You niece went to Northwestern?[/quote]
