[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Visited the school and had a chance to speak in-depth with a group of both current students and alumni. How is it that this school comes off as so... insecure? Two people separately, unprompted, told me confidently that "in just a few years" NEU will be a Top 20 or Top 15 school. And NEU boosters will group it together with other top universities. It makes no sense; is it the most overrated school? Blech.[/quote]

We toured the school last year during Covid after being admitted there.  They were willing to offer in-person tours when everyone other school was shut down for that purpose.  The tour was professional and the tour guide said that he turned down some other "top schools" to go there.  He of course refused to share what they were.   We thought the facilities were quite good as well and the outcomes based on alumni we talked to and online feedback was pretty good too!   Not once did rankings come up.

DC really liked it and preferred it over UMD (which was another choice) but in the end decided to go to a T20 school in the mid-west.

Your DC made the wise choice.[/quote]
