tiny wren
#

Ik this is a stupid question but Can you get deferred from Ed2

glossy birch
#

just joshing bu is still valid af.

#

depends on the school aparently

coarse current
tiny wren
#

NEU?

coarse current
#

generally speaking i don’t think so (pertaining to neu/bu)

#

cuz those schools get so many apps but i saw someone get deferred from cmu ed2

tiny wren
#

I’m considering heavily to ed2 or not

#

I just don’t know if I should roll the die because most of my Ed schools are reaches and colleges admissions seem random after a point yk

drifting warren
#

make sure youd be fine being fully pay

tiny wren
#

I love NEU but

tiny wren
merry elk
#

thats the only reason i didnt ed1 to neu

drifting warren
#

oh youre right yea

coarse current
distant cairn
#

@drifting warren doenst neu give u how much u need according to ur efc?

drifting warren
#

i got in ED1 global scholars with 0 aid but I am still goin

coarse current
#

neu estimates tend to suck

merry elk
#

yeah i wouldn't trust that

coarse current
#

my friend’s estimate said that was only gonna pay like 6k but now she has to pay nearly full price (she got in ea)

drifting warren
#

wow yea

merry elk
#

tiny wren
#

Gotta

distant cairn
coarse current

#

northeastern isnt even prestigious to start with

coarse current
#

the way ppl on a2c praise this school it’s gonna become one soon

drifting warren
#

these days it has a considerable amount of prestige imo

#

at least some. although i am biased I do think it has some. ik many irls that have it quite high on their list

ebon orbit
#

they are like tulane and cwru

#

they try and do everything they can to lower acceptance rate

glossy birch
#

Oh god this debate again…

ebon orbit
#

northeastern is not a bad school but it is not prestigious

coarse current
#

define ā€œprestigiousā€

glossy birch
#

Harvard > northeastern > Adelphi university. Problem solved

drifting warren
ebon orbit
#

schools that are admired by a lot of people

coarse current
#

there’s a reason why neu is getting record amount of apps

ebon orbit
#

yes

#

its cuz no supps lmao. thats why i applied

glossy birch
coarse current
#

do i think it’s a good school? yes, is it better than your state school? it depends

drifting warren
#

ok well thats not what i am talking about. many people actually have it very high on their list

coarse current
small tiger
#

Everyone take a shot @ebon orbit said the funny word

coarse current
#

but northeastern is high on a lot of my irls list because it’s known as a good school

frosty meadow
#

guys please stop shitting on other schools, either bc u didn't get in or didn't get into the campus/program u wanted! it might not only make others feel bad about where they attend but at the same time, everyone's experience in application differs, so just because it might not be a good fit for you, doesn't mean it isn't for someone else!

ebon orbit
#

where am i shitting on northeastern

#

my argument is that it is not prestigious

small tiger
#

He said the word again!!!

ebon orbit
#

uiuc is also not prestigious

small tiger
#

Everyone drink!

drifting warren

#

yea but program prestige matters more than overall prestige

ebon orbit
#

depends

copper mica
#

the london program is so stupid

ebon orbit
#

if its harvard cs or uiuc cs

small tiger
#

The word was said again!

ebon orbit
#

then people would take harvard

small tiger
#

Drink drink drink drink

drifting warren
#

cs program is their best program i think. maybe business as well

copper mica
#

its only good cuz of coop and connections

drifting warren
#

not only

frosty meadow
#

NEU is like top 30 for CS(meaning it's wonderful for CS!)

coarse current
#

well define prestige? t20? t30? neu is a t50

small tiger
copper mica
#

prestige is subjective

small tiger
#

Shots!

ebon orbit
#

and who are admired

glossy birch
# ebon orbit then people would take harvard

Ik people who have gone to Berkeley and CMU over Harvard. Cost can also be a huge factor as well as geography and overall fit. A lot of ppl don’t like the Harvard vibe even though it’s the most prestigious

small tiger
#

Ok this joke is getting old now point is prestige is a dumb metric that means nothing except to gratify yourself

drifting warren
coarse current
ebon orbit
frosty meadow
#

like if you think about it there are so many universities in the world, and if you consider NEU, it's probably like in the 99th percentile lol in terms of prestige and how good its programs are

small tiger
#

Defining a school based on prestige is fundamentally pointless and only serves to make u look like a dumbass

#

Fun bass lol

coarse current
#

there’s like 3000+ colleges in the us and neu being a t50 has to be deserving of some prestige

#

but fit > prestige

frosty meadow
drifting warren
glossy birch
#

I like how it’s the same 30 ppl always active in this chat

small tiger
#

Anything > prestige it’s a pointless metric for elitist dickwads who can’t comprehend the fact that most degrees are the same at the end of the day

ebon orbit
#

do you think most people apply to ivies because of prestige or because of the programs

coarse current
#

like a lower ranked program for your major that fits you better >> higher ranked program for your major that doesn’t fit you

B-b-but USnews says school bad!!!!!!

#

BUT USNEWSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!

frosty meadow

NEU is one of the top universities in the world and is highly respected for its academic excellence. It is consistently ranked in the top 50 universities worldwide and is ranked in the top 10 for engineering, computer science and technology. In terms of prestige, NEU is on par with many of the top universities in the world, especially since it's a member of the prestigious Association of American Universities (AAU), an organization of the top research universities in the US and Canada. And to give you some examples of universities that are in the AAU lol: Harvard, Stanford, UMich, UChicago, MIT.

ebon orbit

Well said, maturing is realizing most degrees are the same, it’s what u do with it that determines your worth post college

us news is the by far one of the the worst things to come out of college admissions

small tiger
#

I know this is a foreign concept to the average a2c sweat but USNews rankings mean nothing nor does ā€œprestigeā€ putting value into any of these means u need to grow up

polar tartan

^^^

small tiger
#

Oof csrankings

frosty meadow
#

Lol

small tiger
#

None of the ranking sites hold any value tbh, csrankings is based on research iirc so it’s skewed to more faculty

frosty meadow
#

Ah yeah lol

small tiger
#

Now to be fair more faculty usually results in stronger programs (more funding, professors, resources, etc.) but nonetheless

distant cairn
#

what defines a good cs program

lone sorrel

Most CS degrees r the same they get u in the door at jobs after entry level it’s more about experience

distant cairn
frosty meadow
# polar tartan it looks sketch

US News is the definition of sketch lol, p sure some colleges bribed them to get on like the top 10 - top 20 list for some majors

distant cairn
small tiger
#

It’s better to pick a school for cs based on fit, # of faculty, dedicated cs college or not, and supplemental programs (ex. NEU co op)

frosty meadow
#

^

#

Honestly speaking, CC is actually the best choice for everyone

distant cairn
#

soemoen tell that to my dad

frosty meadow
#

Saving money but at the same time getting a good education and then transferring

#

But, the only prob with CC is gaining a social circle imo but idk how much u value it(i value it very much which is why im not going to CC)

polar tartan
#

well don't people also use level of prestige to build college lists

#

like harvard is a reach for everyone

viscid marsh

what exactly is this?

Are you trolling me

frosty meadow
#

Nah I can't šŸ’€

#

I just can't anymore šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€

small tiger
#

Reaches, targets, etc. are based on acceptance statistics and your school’s acceptance statistics, prestige has nothing to do with that

polar tartan
#

very prestigious schools have low acceptance rates

small tiger
#

Correlation doesn’t = causation buddy

polar tartan
#

why are u so mean

small tiger
#

I’m not trying to be mean i just genuinely can’t tell if you’re trolling or not

frosty meadow
#

@polar tartan must be trolling lol

small tiger
#

When i applied to colleges last year i didn’t look at it usnews or care about prestige i purely went off fit, programs offered, dedicated cs college, etc. and found the places i wanted to apply to

#

Got a good list goin and it worked out, simple stuff

frosty meadow

#

Now ofc it wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows but all usnews and ā€œprestigeā€ does is make your life miserable constantly thinking about the perception of others in relation to your school

#

It’s such an easier existence senior year not worrying about all that

frosty meadow
#

Just the things ur saying sounds like either u haven’t done research or ur tryna instigate smth or troll to see our reaction @polar tartan

small tiger
#

Oh ya i have an essay to write lol

#

It’s for a one credit class too smh

frosty meadow

Lol damn

Ohhh good luckk

I’m totally bs’ing it šŸ’€

My one credit class grades 100% on attendance

Well more than 2

And I’m going on a trip for 10 days so I’m gonna miss 1 or 2 probably

#

first semester i shat on college and said it was soo easy

#

how id love to go back this shits so hard

umbral jay
#

Should I go to wisco, purdue honors or Neu for business

#

Also into Kelly but it’s way too big for me (the business school itself is like 6000 kids)

gaunt crest
#

i mean id pick kelley out of those options but second choice northeastern

slow edge
umbral jay
#

And it’s absolutely massive

#

I feel like I would get more out of a smaller business school. For example wiscos is 700ish per class and purdue honors is only 750 kids total for any major

#

Oh also @gaunt crest at northeastern how many semesters do you actually pay tuition

small tiger
#

@umbral jay u pay tuition for any semester u r taking classes so no tuition during co op

#

However u still gotta pay for housing n stuff if you’re on campus during co op

gaunt crest
#

but if u co op outside of boston u generally get a stipend for housing so u dont have to worry abt it

umbral jay
#

So why do people bitch about neu being so expensive then if tuition is really only 3 semesters?

#

I Guess it’ll come out to be close with room and board for 4ish years but still

coarse current
#

unless you have ap/ib/de credit you’re most likely gonna have to take a few summer classes or stay for 5 years

#

this varies by program tho

umbral jay
#

I’ll only have 7 credits šŸ˜ž

#

My friend is literally going into college with 60+ credits

languid escarp
#

where can I submit my loci? If I were to write one

wise sierra
small tiger
#

Or just cause u want to lol

#

I’m taking 2 classes this summer because i need to take one of them before co op and taking it at the same time as algorithms and data is suicide

i got into northeastern EA (oakland campus)

i didnt apply for it tho

do i have to stay there all 4 years?

Is it too late to change my campus preference to London?

i would call admissions office

does this mean i cant switch?

the oakland campus aint great right?

yeah if you were admitted to oakland you cant switch to boston at all - heard oakland is alright but not the best, others probably know more

Unless you’re doing nuin or global scholars iirc

#

Someone else can correct me if im@wrong

frosty meadow
#

Yeah

small tiger
#

I personally think you’d have fun on the Oakland campus and you’d still get the usual northeastern benefits but you may as well just go somewhere in the Bay Area that’s closer to SF or a different main campus

#

I’ve heard rumblings about a location change form after a year in london/Oakland iirc i wouldn’t bet on it tho

#

NEU wouldn’t offer this program if u could just change easily

#

Our campus is hella crowded as it is i can’t find a spot in our library half the time

small tiger
crisp spruce
#

that's the thing

#

i was happy that i got into northeastern but im not sure about attending the oakland campus

i would get a degree from a great school but unsure if that's where i wanna stay for the next four years

latent tartan
#

So how many people switched from EA to ED2

#

I’m mad this is an option bc I wanted less competition

latent tartan
#

Yea it feels unfair, I took the initiative to ED2 right off the bat and everyone else got to try EA first

#

Agree

#

Maybe I’ll email and ask

#

But i dont wanna come off as rude or disapproving lol

#

Ask if original ED2ers get priority

#

Yea I might

#

I’ve been meaning to email them anyway and now that there’s more ED2 competition I really should

drifting warren
#

Also ik I should know this but can I take 2 coops in a row?

I assume I cannot

u cant

u also cant graduate on a co op sem

no way

i literally made my linkedin 2 weeks ago and most of my friends still dont have one wtf

I wouldn’t take the offer tbh. Try to get into another school. If you really really need to I’d rather just go to CC and then transfer to Boston campus or another ā€œhighly rankedā€ school

oakland is that bad?

oakland's not that bad, it's just not worth full price. At that point so to a nearby school

Well, west oakland ain't great but that's not where the campus is

Guys, Is regular decision binding?

tfw NEU sends out an email saying EA is binding

They also misspelled clarifications

Wtf is going on at northeastern lmao

When they were sending me program details before first semester they titled the email to ā€œJames and Familyā€ my name is NOT James we (other students) all got the same email lol

tame harbor

one of my safeties called me nina 😭

That’s an unfortunate typo lol

My name is NOT James my bad

They sent all students in the program the same email addressed to ā€œJames and familyā€

is it similar to the thing asu does?

#

i low key agree but like if 96k ppl want to apply to northeastern the number of applicants that northeastern should have is 96k??

#

i think its stupid too to have no supps but from a business standpoint it makes sense

coarse current
#

i mean schools in canada/uk don’t have supps at all

lone sorrel
#

Other than artificially lowering acceptance rate

gaunt crest
#

also app fees

#

and artificially lowering the acceptance rate from a business standpoint makes sense

coarse current
#

the uk has a personal statement which is similar to a ā€œwhy us/majorā€ essay here and canadan schools only care about your grades

#

tbh we need a hard limit on how many schools one can apply to

gaunt crest
#

i think we just need less emphasis on college admissions

#

and for ppl to recognize that the college u go to really doesnt matter

coarse current
#

that too bc us college admissions s a multi million dollar industry

gaunt crest
#

as an ex-prestige whore like i get it but unless u want to go into ib it essentially doesnt matter

coarse current
#

if not billions

gaunt crest
#

yea itll never happen

#

but the culture around college admissions is so toxic for literally no reason

coarse current
#

cuz like there’s sat prep classes, private college counselors, essay editors, etc

gaunt crest
#

yea itll never go away but just the attitude towards it i think needs to be adjusted

coarse current
#

if you have hella money and decent grades you can get in anywhere

gaunt crest
#

like a school is how u spend 4 years of ur life not an accomplishment

gaunt crest
#

actually i mean enough money yea prob

ebon orbit
coarse current
#

i’m talking more about like parents that send their kids to prep schools that cost like $50k a year

not necessarily the college admissions scandal

Rigorous coursework with a 4.0 gpa and high test score will def not get you into ivies and such

see once again tho i dont get why it matters

coarse current
#

i go to one of the better public schools in my area and we only get like 4 or so students out of like 300 students

gaunt crest
#

the system isnt changing so much of college admissions culture is used to hate on other students/colleges/idk like everyone

#

when it really doesnt matter tbh

coarse current
#

college admissions takes the life out of so many ppl

#

this junior ik irl is freaking out because her gpa is a 3.76/4

tawny blade
#

i am a current one

gaunt crest
#

obviously hindsight 20/20 but like

#

it doesnt affect shit where u go to go wherever ull be happiest

#

bc ur attitude abt the environment around u and how happy u r there will affect shit

coarse current
#

like bro a 3.76 is a is a good gpa shes gonna get into a t100

gaunt crest
#

LITERALLY ppl dont realize that all schools in the top 100 are brilliant

lone sorrel
gaunt crest
#

like the college admissions culture is so niche yet feels so widespread bc everyone around u is in it

coarse current
#

the vast majorly of hs seniors don’t even go to a t50

gaunt crest
#

bc u probably wont be happy anywhere if u arent happy with urself and okay with where u are at

coarse current
#

most of the schools i applied to are within the t30-t50 range lmao

gaunt crest
#

i remember being told that binghamton is a great school growing up and its like in the 80s?? and it is a great school

coarse current
#

some r unranked or like t100 and i only applied to one t20 (penn)

#

a lot of ppl at my hs attend my state school

lone sorrel
gaunt crest
#

thats the problem tho

#

that the culture surrounding college admissions teaches them that high school's goal is to get into a top school

coarse current
gaunt crest
#

then college's goal is to get into a top job

#

then in ur top job u want money to retire nicely

coarse current
lone sorrel
gaunt crest
#

and then ur retired and then what?? u r supposed to be able to be happy at every step of ur journey, so why is everything a means to an end

gaunt crest
#

it may be harder but its doable

coarse current

like my cousins in germany say that all unis there are practically equal but in the us the qualify of education varies wildly

#

I feel like as humans we seek organization and ranking and so it’s natural to think about rankings so much

gaunt crest
#

i feel like we should seek happiness instead. u can be accomplished and happy but u need to first be content with urself and find balance between work and doing what u want

coarse current
#

the school we all got into has a sub 20% acceptance rate why fight tooth and nail to get into a club that has a lower acceptance rate than the school itself
