[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a strange model, and not your traditional college experience. For some kids it’s a great place to be. For others, the coop thing is certainly not their cup of tea. If you want a traditional college experience, this isn’t it. [/quote] It's a model which is gaining huge popularity. You have to start worrying about internships almost right after starting college, and Northeastern basically takes care of that big headache for you, and that actually translates to starting your career after graduation. This is a huge upside for a large population compared to sacrificing some traditional college experience (football team? Greek life? whatever that could be) . Also, it's right in the middle of a major city and actually has a nice campus that actually feels like college compared to its peers like Boston U or NYU. The trend is that kids favor colleges in the city. You would say it's less of a traditional college experience, but you can still make it enough of a traditional college experience. On the other hand all the upside are pretty big, thus the popularity is skyrocketing. [/quote] I can't speak for all students but you are 100% with my rising HS Senior. Other than two public in state options, 15 schools of interest are all urban, eastern US. Lifelong sports fan, he is not concerned about missing Saturday tailgating. [/quote]
