It could have been. OP had a valid question. Not possible to exchange information though since this crazy booster attacks everyone. They think the many comments here are all from an old cat lady whose kid was rejected. Completely unhinged. If the school employs this person they should fire them.

This. You’re arguing with stupid. Go look at their online parent facebook groups:

- they spend less per student than the Boston public school system does
- they messed up grad events so seniors had to pay a required fee and couldn’t attend a single grad event (many wrote to the head of the school saying all slots were filled even before the signup began)
- tons of parents complain that their kids can’t find co-ops…despite trying and trying.

These are real experiences of many families.

You know you are committed to the cause when you stalk facebook groups with which you are not affiliated. I have to admire the NEU basher, scowering the internet for every bad morsel of information about NEU takes dedication and time. It's just surprising you have chosen that as your endeavor. Of course, such incredible factual assertions as "tons of parents complaing that their kids can't find co-ops" is so helpful to your credibility. Out of curiousity, where does your child go to school?

Ha ha - or…my child got into NEU, I joined the FBook groups and then removed myself when a better fit came along.

I think that was my second post on this thread…and I am not bashing the school. My kid seriously considered it. Picked a T25, however, over NEU.

And…you still have’t substantively responded to those very specific complaints. Only an idiot would think those complaints are not concerning.

Sure you did. Nice story, though. Scour the interenet some more, my brother.

The tone of this post (and others) is making me so glad my kid didn’t apply to NEU.

and who cares?

NP: people care bc it sounds like loony parents are sending kids there…that’s why.

Real data doesn't agree with the crazy hater claims.
That's why.

It seems the original poster was a troll, as they say. It is suspicious that the thread is permitted to continue.

I don’t understand these comments, or this thread. We are looking at the school now. Our teen has top choices, and is choosing Northeastern. He fell in live with it straight on, once we arrived on campus.

Why come to a site to try to speak ill of a school, unless of course you were denied admission. No other school seems to attract such attention on this site. Perhaps one or two of you feel you had an academic spot “taken” from you, judging by some of the posts. I know that in the US, there are only so many spots for each college, per high school.

Is perhaps the mod piling on and encouraging such discussion? Of course, that would subtract merit from the site, wouldn’t it? It makes me wonder if the mod has teens who are college application age.

It’s obvious that this is no longer a constructive thread.

More likely the looney parents are the ones attacking a university. Thankfully their kids were rejected and didn't have a choice to attend.

There are some myths about the co-op program at Northeastern.

Above all, Northeastern is a research university first.
It's one of the only 39 private R1 research universities in the US, thus a lot of research activities and students can get involved with research just like any other research schools. A lot of students do research instead or together with coop.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_research_universities_in_the_United_States

Coop is an added program/service/support by the school.
It's basically an internship, and there's no guarantee or anything like that. You still have to do all your due diligence.

However it's an enhanced version of internship with more flexibility and better support from the school.
So instead of Summer only, you can do the internship(coop) in the Spring or Fall. Course offering and the whole structure is designed to support that with plenty of Summer courses. When you take summer courses, you get prorated student aid/scholarship. Strong industry connections. There's a separate coop advisor in addition to a academic advisor, etc. etc.

DP here. I am not an NEU basher. PP, YOU are making the school look bad with repetitive, insane posts. Even if you are for real, please STOP. Your posts reflect badly on a perfectly decent school.
