Northeastern University

Northeastern is terrible! The faculty and administration are all complete idiots who don't care about the students. Everyone is just a number to them. For the amount of money that the students pay to go there, they could at least TRY to be accessible! Pretty much the students are just treated like shit. And if you're undeclared? Forget about it. The amount of pressure they put on you to declare a major is unbelievable. They don't care if it's what you really want to do - as long as you get put into a co-op rotation. As far as the social life goes, there's nothing to do in the city at night if you're not 21, and since the campus is so strict parties that are actually fun are hard to come by. it ends up being the same thing every weekend - either cramming into some gross frat house's basement until the cops come or drinking in someone's apartment, it gets really old really fast. Some people claim to love Northeastern, but I can't understand why - if I could choose again I would NEVER go to this school!!! Not worth the money at all!!!

Hate it here at NU. I do think the co-operative program is disorganized. My friend graduated from here and had a difficult time finding a job in NY with a degree from here.

The only thing that I am positive about at Northeastern is that I hate it here. I thought about transferring but watch my friends suffer and struggle with the admin so I am sticking it out. Sadly I can not wait to get out. People don't want new friends. Parties are few and far between because they are very strict on campus here. Three strikes and you are kicked out. Teams suck. No spirit. No way I am sitting in the freezing cold to watch lame teams. Administration doesn't care about anyone but themselves. Writing and calling for assistance is hopeless. There are too many good schools and this isn't one of them.
