[quote=Anonymous]My spouse graduated from Northwestern years ago.  Also, he was an athlete.  The career services department was lacking and he felt he did almost everything on his own.  
Years later when he contacted career department they told him basically to get lost and that they don’t offer services after a certain period.  The Ivy my spouse attended for grad school will always speak/ assist alumni even years or decades later!

He said the quarter system was a bit difficult and that he preferred the semester system from grad school.

He seemed to like it when he attended but since not so much now.  Their alumni engagement is lacking in my opinion.

He attended grad school at a top Ivy but applied for a grad school at Northwestern. He did not get off the waitlist at Northwestern.  If he got into Northwestern he most likely would have attended.

Since he graduated from the grad degree he sees a total difference in alumni engagement and networking.  The Ivy is so much better.   Very engaged, wants input from alumni, great networking events.  My spouse has spoken with tons of alumni from his graduate program and offered assistance.  NU didn’t seem to want that or only offer it for a short period in the experiences I have seen.
