Northeastern University (2023-2024)

[round wyvern]

yeah i know

[stark pendant]

ED2 decisions are soon right

[round wyvern]

just bc like

[blazing scaffold]

https://tenor.com/view/slaysol-sad-depressed-wolf-gif-26432334

[round wyvern]

i realized i really really want tod o bme

not just biochem

[stark pendant]

If you’re considering switching then do it rn

Like if that’s even a thought

Switch

[round wyvern]

yeah just waiting for my dad to get home so we can talk

[stark pendant]

Valid

[round wyvern]

ill send the email tonight 👍

i dont think they can say no to me switching back right

[open lynx]

yall I was accepted, is this a good school LOL

[round wyvern]

no its terrible give me ur spot

[open lynx]

i applied on a whim

[round wyvern]

yes its good

[trail cave]

ED2 isn’t out?

I got in EA

[round wyvern]

no its not

[sour thicket]

did u get in or defered

[lavish summit]

ea is out apparently

[round wyvern]

deferred

[sour thicket]

bc i think they give u an option to change if u get in

[coarse jacinth]

I can't find scholarship info anywhere? Is it the same for others?

[formal lance]

L

[round wyvern]

yeah exactly

thats why

w a 3.4 1560 i feel like ed2 my best shot

[lavish summit]

deferred too

[topaz fern]

unless theyve changed it, fin aid document shows up on your status check sometime in the next couple weeks

[round wyvern]

and they have good co-op internships and stuff and i can transfer worst case after a year

[coarse jacinth]

My friend ahs the scholarship already on his portal so I was confused lol

[round wyvern]

bc lots of bme in boston

[pliant lotus]

I got into honors college and my scholarship doc is already there

[coarse jacinth]

Ehhh

Okay so I prob just didn't get scholarship or anything

[brisk crystal]

Actually we might still have a chance. There’s ppl in my school with the same gpa as me who got in rd

[topaz fern]

I saw there was something different about fafsa this year so maybe that’s why

[charred iron]

got deferred
its over

[round wyvern]

@stark pendant they cant sya no to me switching back right

[pliant lotus]

not yet, at least

one automatically comes with honors college i think

[echo folio]

Aye

[warm rose]

How do I know which campus I got in to

[coarse jacinth]

Yep, my friend has that exact thing and I don't so I was worried

No honors college fo rme so it prob comes out later

[pliant lotus]

can anyone confirm if numbers are the same between people

[pliant lotus]

Should say on ur letter

[remote chasm]

yippiiiiee

[untold shale]

damn congrats

[trail cave]

I got 5k for honors 😦

[untold shale]

id be so fucking happy if i got that holy

[bright skiff]

What does it mean if i got into NEU Oakland? Is that just like a weird rejection? Is that good or bad? they framed it like i got in so im confused

[untold shale]

it means you are shipped to the california location

[topaz fern]

Oakland 4 years or global scholars

[bright wolf]

did they yield protect

[stark pendant]

To rd? Depends

[round wyvern]

it says it comes out mid feb

[stark pendant]

They might ask you to withdraw entirely idk

[round wyvern]

its technically not even feb so im giving a lot of notice

[pliant lotus]

Oh wow it is diff

congrats, either way

[stark pendant]

When was the deadline

[bright skiff]

They said “after your first year you can seamlessly transition to the boston campus”

[stark pendant]

2 weeks 😭

[round wyvern]

jan 1 for ed2

ITS LIKE A JOB OK

[stark pendant]

They prob are close to finalizing

[round wyvern]

😭

[trim edge]

Broo

[stark pendant]

Oh I mean

[round wyvern]

but if i do it today

[trim edge]

Idk if I wanna go

[stark pendant]

They might ask you to withdraw

[round wyvern]

yeah

i know

[topaz fern]

As long as you have 3 years in Boston it’s good imo

[round wyvern]

id be ok w it

bc i really like engineering

[stark pendant]

Then yeah it should be fine

[trail cave]

I’m probably not gonna go unless I get a lot of need based

[round wyvern]

alr

will update you

[stark pendant]

I doubt they’d force you to stay

[ionic ravine]

is this surefire or like 50/50 chance of transfer

[stark pendant]

Hope not

[stark pendant]

Gl!

[round wyvern]

if they want me so bad they can throw some money my way 💀

[bright skiff]

Shit idk i just got the letter

[ionic ravine]

does anyone else have an idea?

[shell oyster]

Lol I got deferred

[rare raptor]

Same

[left stream]

i got the same thing i cant find any info on it

[shell oyster]

Tbh not surprised consider my families finances

Need aware place anyways

[rare raptor]

How many people got deferred

[topaz fern]

Call them and ask about the transfer. I think it’s supposed to be guaranteed but I’ve heard stories about people getting stuck in Oakland for 4 years

[bright skiff]

In the most prestige whory way possible should i count getting into oakland as a W,L, or like deferred. Do they reject anyone or is it like osu instate where they send everyone rejected to a branch campus.

[rancid elbow]

did anyone figure out how?

[simple lantern]

guys can you apply specifically to NU Oakland

and shit

[pliant lotus]

It's a W

you got into the school

[topaz fern]

No a ton of ppl got deferred and rejected, it’s still a w

[pliant lotus]

it lets you pick campus preference on your application

[barren pendant]

yes but why

[pliant lotus]

when you initially apply

[tired meteor]

bro what happened to the neu cake

[simple lantern]

uhh cause its easier than Boston

[pliant lotus]

you can also indicate that boston is first choice, but u have a second choice if u cant go to boston

so don't apply to only oakland

[stark pendant]

There’s a cake?

[topaz fern]

I think if you put Oakland as first choice you’re pretty much going there lmao

[untold shale]

isnt oakland 80% AR

i didnt even put oakland at all im ngl 💀

[bright skiff]

But i didnt get into main campus so like…

[topaz fern]

If you put it as your first choice I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s 80

[untold shale]

but i have a strat to help me stand out

i read on reddit that someone emailed NEU and asked if they could add supplemental essays on their portal and apparently the AO said yes

so ima do the same thing and make my own prompts

💀

im rd btw

[fringe quest]

no

[tired meteor]

@dusky vault was making one

[blazing scaffold]

probably for ed thats true

[topaz fern]

What matters most for neu is 3 years of networking and co-ops with important companies in Boston, if your first year is somewhere else it’s a w because you have the same education as everyone else but have experienced more diversity

Think of it that way

[stark pendant]

Ohh

[pliant lotus]

NEU almost certainly does not yield protect

[remote chasm]

waaat that's crazy

[stark pendant]

If I made a cake for a school and got rejected that cake would be smashed

[dusky vault]

the neu cake is deferred JUST LIKE MEEEE (shes in the fridge im doing the decorations tmrw)

[tired meteor]

SEND PICS

once you're done

!!

[untold shale]

if they say yes ima prolly be the ONLY student who does that so it could be a boost 🤷

[dusky nebula]

deferred baby

[ionic ravine]

if anyone finds out if the oakland transfer thing is guaranteed can you update

[sleek tusk]

aint that some shit

[tired meteor]

i think she was gonna add frosting of accepted/deferred/rejected based on the decision

[dusky vault]

ofc ofc im posting updates here ^^

[hoary bay]

Bro what are my odds of being accepted to BU after being deferred from NEU lmao

[sleek tusk]

in the global scholars program too nice

[remote chasm]

i'll do it too

[topaz fern]

I recommend you call them

[remote chasm]

we wont be alone

[untold shale]

ar eu rd?

[topaz fern]

Don’t rely on internet strangers

[dusky vault]

now im just going to hv an accepted/rejected checkbox and yall will know what happened based on what i fill in LOLLLL

[tired meteor]

bu on top
plus bu has supps and neu doesnt so i wouldn't compare

[remote chasm]

i am planning on RD, don't think i'll get in either ED or RD with my TERRIBLE midyear report

but yes I am trying to do RD

[hoary bay]

True

[dusky vault]

OML SHOULD I WRITE ABT THE NEU CAKE IN MY LOCI

[lavish summit]

neu opping

[verbal helm]

a2c ate w the acceptances

[hoary bay]

Bro if I get into BU I will be so happy

[dusky nebula]

when is rd expected chat

[stark pendant]

Ohh

[hoary bay]

Expensive as shit but still

[stark pendant]

No correlation

[stark pendant]

No fr

[lavish summit]

it has no correlation

[remote chasm]

@untold shale how are you gonna upload those essays

[lavish summit]

and neu is way harder t oget in

[remote chasm]

email?

[hoary bay]

Ok good

[stark pendant]

Idk about that one

Neu has more applicants fs

[bright skiff]

On the poll are the people who put accepted all for accepted main campus or just accepted to one of the programs (global, oakland, etc.)

[lavish summit]

2023

[untold shale]

bro my midyear is idk. i have an 82 UW for AP Gov bcz of a big assignment that wasnt fixed, but if he is able to change it ill have a 90 for ap gov and ill be okay. other than that i have 85 for ap calc but thats not thaaat terrible and its a rigorous class

[lavish summit]

and its 20%+ for ed

[remote chasm]

hey man better than what i have

[lavish summit]

so noned applciant accept rate is prob at like 3-4%

[untold shale]

i thought neu was 60 for ed

[lavish summit]

ok no clue

but its rly hihg

[stark pendant]

Acceptance rate doesn’t always indicate how hard it is to get into a school

[remote chasm]

is it like 5%+ for RD then

[lavish summit]

my pt is that that makes noned applicants evne lower than the 5.6%

[stark pendant]

This year it was around that much yeah

[topaz fern]

this is for boston campus only. out of everyone accepted, the total ar is closer to 15

[lavish summit]

thats quite literally what acceptance rate is tho 😭

[stark pendant]

According to online

[viscid wharf]

yeah im psure its in the like 45-60 range

[untold shale]

i agree. brooklyn college has a 50% AR but everyone and their mother applies there, so i dont think its actually 50% for a competitive student

and neu everyone applies there, literally everyone

[stark pendant]

It’s like the stat where they’re like “9 out of 10 dentists named John approve this toothpaste”

[jagged mortar]

https://huntnewsnu.com/74975/campus/northeastern-undergraduate-applications-surge-breaking-record-2024/

[untold shale]

cus its #1 school without supps

[jagged mortar]

Just to pin

[verbal helm]

neu is literally the lotto

[stark pendant]

Exactly bc no essays

[untold shale]

for students here, neu is prolly at least 15-20% cus most applicants arent that competitive

[hoary bay]

LMAO

[stark pendant]

BU also has essays

[untold shale]

any school without essays will have a weaker and larger applicant pool

5% at harvard and 5% at neu are not the same thing

[viscid wharf]

true

[lavish summit]

ok thats fiar

[stark pendant]

^

Different applicant pools

[verbal helm]

wonder how the choose people

with that many applications

[jolly meadow]

Whyd i get pinged

Did it come out

[lavish summit]

yep

[topaz fern]

thats because 5% is not neu's acceptance rate 💀

[blazing scaffold]

bro its beenout

for like an hour and half

[untold shale]

and no essays too......

[verbal helm]

do they at least weight interest?

[remote chasm]

did anyone get an email saying neu was out

cuz i cant find anyhting in my inbox

[zenith wind]

did the early action decisions come out?

[pliant lotus]

yes

[remote chasm]

yes

[pliant lotus]

abt an hour ago

[verbal helm]

yes💀

[zenith wind]

wtf 💀

[remote chasm]

if it wasnt for this thread blowing up i wouldve never knew

[graceful helm]

I got deferred

Ngl Im happy with that

[woeful fern]

is neu honors automatic?

like i didnt apply for it im p sure

but i got it?

[untold shale]

probably not, but i will email them today to ask if i can send supplementals in the portal since someone did it on reddit

thats prob demonstrated interest

and extra helpful material

[remote chasm]

danny r u doing ED or RD

[untold shale]

RD

[shell oyster]

Did anyone here get in?

[untold shale]

my ED is nyu

stern

[woeful fern]

3% acceptance rate fr

[dusky vault]

Deferral cookie @twilit hinge

[verbal helm]

what??

[open lynx]

guys i got into the london scholars program (my first choice!).

but tbh i kinda clueless abt neu LOL

[willow cloud]

does this mean london all four years

[open lynx]

no london first year then boston for rest

[topaz fern]

i dont think london 4 years is a thing

[sleek tusk]

did it say "you are going to london" explictly

[willow cloud]

is global scholars good

[chilly fog]

does deferral mean they didnt read it usually for NEU?

[round wyvern]

i sent the email

[sleek tusk]

mine says "you will either spend your first semester in london or oakland"

[willow cloud]

thats global scholar program right

[sleek tusk]

yea

[open lynx]

yea urs is diff from mine

[willow cloud]

yeah i got the same thing

[sleek tusk]

idk this was lower on my radar

[round wyvern]

wait

if i ed to northeastern

if i dont get into boston

im not stuck at oakland right

?

[sleek tusk]

no

[willow cloud]

is this better than just london or oakland for first year

[sleek tusk]

they send some first years off to either london or oakland

[dusky vault]

no ur not- only bound to ur first choice for ed

[round wyvern]

phew

[vestal ferry]

i got in!

is the N.U.in Program honors?

[tired meteor]

I realixed why I got deferred

I applied for data science + journalism and there's nothing in my app that corroborates data science💀

[viscid quartz]

they dont apply based off major im pretty sure

[sleek tusk]

that was my last EA and no rejects 🔥

then again i only EAd safeties and i got deferred from my actual ED school BUT i will choose to be happy

[topaz fern]

not honors, but an amazing opportunity

better than boston imo

[fallow bough]

Got deferred am I cooked for other cs/cybersec schools?

[topaz fern]

no, northeastern deferral is one of the more meaningless deferrals you can get

just because of the sheer number of apps they get

[fallow bough]

So it’s not over?

[round wyvern]

do u know the ed2 acceptance rate?

[jolly meadow]

i wasted my time fr

[topaz fern]

was around 45 last year

[fallow bough]

I mean it probably is but thanks for the hopium

[round wyvern]

hmm

with a 3.4 1560 thats my best bet then right

if iw anna go to northeastern

[jolly meadow]

yes

[topaz fern]

yes ofc

[round wyvern]

and boston is good for bme stuff right

[native belfry]

yo it came out

[round wyvern]

yes

2 hours ago

ur a little late

lmao

[native belfry]

finally

yeah

jsut woke up

[verbal helm]

dyk the ea acceptance rate for this year?

specifically boston

[remote chasm]

is a 3.2-3.3 ish expected cumulative and test optional bad for NEU

[round wyvern]

yes

[verbal helm]

it's a lottery

[round wyvern]

my only saving grace is my sat

[rocky badge]

whats the nuin acceptance rate

[round wyvern]

they list sat as very important

[remote chasm]

wait really

[round wyvern]

yeah

in the cds

[verbal helm]

we can't judge because we don't know how neu admissions works

[native belfry]

whats the global scholars program about, i dont remember signing up for it 💀

[round wyvern]

thats true its just

[remote chasm]

oh shoot....

[round wyvern]

without sat

its not great

obv theres always a chance

but like

yk

[remote chasm]

gonna get flat out rejected in NEU's RD

[verbal helm]

my gpa was honestly pretty mid for neu and i went t.o and got in

[round wyvern]

well

if you were deferred

[remote chasm]

i am still contemplating ED though but i'm scared

[round wyvern]

then you have a chance

[round wyvern]

...3.2?

[topaz fern]

i mean it just happened so no one knows

[remote chasm]

it couldnt have been worse than mine

[willow cloud]

^

[round wyvern]

dont force yourself if you dont like the school

[topaz fern]

not even the admissions lol

[remote chasm]

i like the school since its close to family and has great co op

[round wyvern]

only ed if oyu want to go

then go for it

[verbal helm]

no lol i had a 3.7 💀 but my friend got in with a 3.6 no scores submitted. neu is a literal lotto

[round wyvern]

if you can afford it

[round wyvern]

yeah they're 3.2 without test scores

[remote chasm]

uhhh we're really low income but high assets

[round wyvern]

thats why i said its not likely

[remote chasm]

yeah plus awful midterm grades

[round wyvern]

i have 3.4 1560 and got deferred, probably only bc of my sat i didnt get rejected

yeah

my midterm grades are my best yet

[remote chasm]

idk if i should even try at this point

[verbal helm]

i mean we can't chance others

[signal crow]

How many do they reject

[round wyvern]

oh true

yeah

idk just ed if you like it man

[topaz fern]

80,000

[round wyvern]

ive seen someone get in w a 3.0 before

or heard of at least

[signal crow]

Whats that out of

[remote chasm]

what? were they TO

[round wyvern]

they did have a 1600 but

[verbal helm]

i honestly have no clue why they accepted me. literally 50k apps my friend.

[topaz fern]

98,000

[remote chasm]

oh gotcha

[humble coyote]

yeah ED

its not hard to get in ed

[round wyvern]

yup

im thinking of it

[remote chasm]

breh

okay ill think more about it

[round wyvern]

idk if i should hold out for ucs cauase im in state

or ed

[humble coyote]

id wait for ucs

[round wyvern]

bc my uc gpa is only 3.85 but i live in california

[sleek tusk]

damn

[remote chasm]

oh wow you're lucky wiht the amount of UCs

[round wyvern]

and they dont take sat

[sleek tusk]

thats a lot

[dusky vault]

oml wait just like me fr-

[open lynx]

[strong abyss]

A2Cers are crazy idfk

[round wyvern]

i do have ucs

[open lynx]

PLS i beleoived you lfmao

[round wyvern]

anything above santa cruz is a reach

[verbal helm]

wait i had a 3.6 at the time, my mid year bumped my gpa to a 3.7. but pls dont compared urself to me because my school and my ec's are v v different from yall

[hollow totem]

NO WAY I GOT IN

[round wyvern]

because they wont see my sat

[hollow totem]

My stats are so bad

[round wyvern]

yeah ofc no someone was just asking if to was bad i used you as an example

[strong abyss]

this j shows college admissions r so mf random and sometimes unfair but its okay

[remote chasm]

congrats jeff kinney

[hollow totem]

3.2 - 1290

I only had 3 ecs

[floral scroll]

the more people i see the more i feel like it’s yield protection but also i might be coping

[junior scroll]

congrats

[devout elbow]

congratsss

[verbal helm]

• my midyear bumped me to a 3.7 but idk if neu saw

[topaz fern]

it helps to be from a nowhere school in a nowhere state because they have to fulfill all demographics

[round wyvern]

so idk if should hold out to a miracle uc

or just ed2 to northeastern

[round wyvern]

2nd most comp public school in bay area pretty much

so not great

[signal crow]

The more people you see what

[floral scroll]

get accepted

[bright skiff]

Also im not gonna go to neu but i just truly want to know if i got rejected and they branch campused me or if i should count it as a W

[floral scroll]

idk comparison is the thief of joy ig

[open lynx]

mustve been decent ec

[verbal helm]

congrats on neu!!!!!

[open lynx]

LOL that was me when i applied on a whim

[topaz fern]

with this server's standards its a mild w, by normal standards its a solid w

[hollow totem]

no
jv track
chess club (no exec position)
volunteering at kumon

[signal crow]

Do they only count RD for their acceptance rate then?

[verbal helm]

LOL it's me

[hollow totem]

no
jv track
chess club (no exec position)
volunteering at kumon

[bright skiff]

What the fuck does this mean kobe bryant???

[gaunt vector]

i better be accepted rd i did NOT make ai sponge for nothing

[topaz fern]

this server has high af standards

[verbal helm]

neu is hella holistic

[gaunt vector]

this server is literally only godsend kids

[round wyvern]

i hvae 3 cs on my transcript im pretty sure

so

[signal crow]

A lot of them are prob boring though

[verbal helm]

you got in?

[bright skiff]

Oh my god michelle!! O’BLOCK FOR LIFE FUCK KING VON ON THE DEAD HOMIES

[signal crow]

As far as their extracurricular and essays go

[round wyvern]

deferred

considering ed2

[gaunt vector]

SOSA

[round wyvern]

lol

1560 and strong upward trend

[verbal helm]

im not perfect

[verbal helm]

WE UP

[keen urchin]

Wait we can change? Eg. i got into oakland, can i change into boston?

[round wyvern]

how do i maximize my nu chances if i dont ed

[gaunt vector]

compared to most people applying this place has top applicants for a lot of places

[verbal helm]

send in additional info

[meager isle]

no

[gaunt vector]

pray

[sour thicket]

after 1 year

[verbal helm]

they track interest. also pray

[fallow bough]

So if I got deferred without midterm grades what are my chances of getting in RD

[round wyvern]

idk if holding out for uc miracle is the right play here

my cc says davis is a reach for me

[gaunt vector]

bro I did a tour and nothing changed

[topaz fern]

approximately 5.6%

[devout elbow]

had 3.78 uw 34 act and got deferred

so sad

[round wyvern]

when i didnt do an official tour bc my fucking relative showed me around

[gaunt vector]

my 1570 3.95 friend got deferred

[round wyvern]

like my bad i guess

[sleek tusk]

what sthe acceptance rate this cycle

[signal crow]

Same

[bright skiff]

See heres the confusion. The even distribution among the programs gives the impression that all of them are similarly prestigious, but the fact that only 3 got rejected and like 30smthn got in despite a 5% acceptance rate confuses me like

[gaunt vector]

don't forget that there's no supplementals so a lot of average and below average students apply

because fuck it we ball

[signal crow]

Should i just commit to another school i dont think i would go to northeastern anyway

[bright skiff]

Me Irl so thats why im confused

[topaz fern]

youre ignoring deferred

[gaunt vector]

which is why neu has one of the largest applicant pools

[signal crow]

I got into uiuc engineering in stat

[bright skiff]

Yeah but deferred can mean anything. Umich defers a ton and rejects few early and uiuc defers very few and rejects a ton early. It can mean anything

[hollow surge]

u shld wait for fafsa

u wont lose anyrhing

other than dorm priority

[topaz fern]

for northeastern, defers most of the rejects first

thats how they get the rd acceptance rate so low

thats why youre seeing 35 defers and 3 rejects

[bright skiff]

Dont they only post acceptance rate for the boston campus?

Like thats what they publicize

[topaz fern]

yeah but its the same thing

the 35/3 number is all programs

so it would apply to boston too

just diff numbers

[bright skiff]

This shit is actually nonsensical to me why are these fuckers so weird!

[topaz fern]

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

[gaunt vector]

my friend got in ea test optional

wahoo

[remote chasm]

bruh when is fafsa gonna come out again? it looks like its down

[gaunt vector]

MID MARCH.

[remote chasm]

WHAT?

i havent even filled it out yet

[gaunt vector]

MID FUCKING MARCH

[remote chasm]

okay so i guess just wait till mid march to do fafsa with parent then

[bright skiff]

If I was an a2cer and all i cared about was prestige whoring and getting into the most prestigious program not the actual college experience would i count this as an L or a W⁉️⁉️⁉️

[topaz fern]

low af acceptance rate = high af prestige = bank

[verbal helm]

3 percent???

[topaz fern]

pretty good business model

[signal crow]

Realistically im not getting that much anyway from fafsa and base uiuc tuition is like 1/4 of northeasterns base

[quiet pendant]

Still do it at your nearest convenience

[verbal helm]

bertha i got into neu LMAO

[remote chasm]

okay

[gaunt vector]

fat L‼️‼️

[quiet pendant]

Congrats

early march is when our state deadline for FAFSA

[topaz fern]

in this very specific case global scholars is somewhere in between

[remote chasm]

guess thatll change too

[topaz fern]

not going to elaborate

[remote chasm]

hoooooow do you demonstrate interest

do you just click on their spam emails or something

[strong abyss]

wait all

how is it if you get into an international campus

i didnt apply EA but my friend got into some intl campus thing idk the details im j curious what that means

[topaz fern]

sounds like they got london, dont have any experience with that but i doubt its bad

[hazy pulsar]

deferred lol

[remote chasm]

deferred squad where you at

this is better than the rejection i had today for olin

[hazy pulsar]

yo yo yo

[round wyvern]

looking at my uc chances at my uc gpa is lower than avg accepted merced gpa from my school its so over

[bright skiff]

What the fuck does this even mean class size means jack shit when you dont have yield. Whats the number admitted to each campus why dont you tell us that??

[round wyvern]

whats their plan if more than 2600 accept lmfaooo

[bright skiff]

Overcrowding 2: electric boogaloo

[twilit hinge]

they accepted 2640

for ea I believe

or that includes ea and ed 1 so far

[quasi breach]

j found out 3 people from school got in..

but no one will share if it’s boston hmmm

[zenith siren]

some people from my school got in for oakland and london, not sure abt boston for EA yet

[verbal helm]

how many apps total

50k right

[twilit hinge]

about 50k

yea

[verbal helm]

wtf

[twilit hinge]

maybe 60k

i forgor

it said 56000+ for the ed letter

[verbal helm]

there were no stats on my ea letter

[signal crow]

Didnt they make the app free

[twilit hinge]

I have it from a counselor email

they dont send it in ur letter

[verbal helm]

no supps

[twilit hinge]

how yall get the app for free

[signal crow]

Nah they want that low acceptance rate so bad 💀

[twilit hinge]

i got no fee waiver

[signal crow]

Its actually comedic the length they go to

[buoyant violet]

was there some kinda @ everyone ping or something why did i get pinged

[twilit hinge]

yea chloe

[topaz fern]

yeah there was

[verbal helm]

ik 😭 i feel kind of bad about my acceptance now bc people are crying yield protection for getting deferred

[twilit hinge]

u dont need to resond

it was just about results

[verbal helm]

is this true? https://www.reddit.com/r/NEU/comments/1afu2kd/there_is_no_place_to_sit/

neu is hella overcrowded?

[signal crow]

Nah you did a good job 💯 But someone ik didnt even submit the academic record thing and got deferred

[twilit hinge]

I asked students in neu server

they said yea

it gets busy

u gotta figure out spots ig

[topaz fern]

yes but there are good places off campus if you know where to look

[twilit hinge]

yes thats what I heard

[bright skiff]

I still dont get it is getting branch campus just fancy rejected? Is it “you arent good enough for main campus and we’re rejecting you but we still want ur money” or “we genuinely dont have space on main campus but if we did we’d accept you there so go to a branch campus pls xoxo”

[round wyvern]

second pretty much

wait no

[twilit hinge]

second more

[round wyvern]

is it the 4 years at second or switch to boston after 1 year

[signal crow]

I would think its the 2nd but like how do they build housing in one semester

[twilit hinge]

theres so many at boston

[topaz fern]

first one for the second reason, second one for all reasons

[buoyant violet]

for dining halls 100%

[twilit hinge]

can we carry to go

[verbal helm]

i mean

[buoyant violet]

yes

[twilit hinge]

oh W

I wouldnt mind going out to eat

[round wyvern]

thoughts on ed to northeastern is it worth

[topaz fern]

yeah dining halls you have to go during off hours to get a comfortable place

[verbal helm]

i dont think so, it's more like they think you're a better fit for another campus/ different experience.

[round wyvern]

yeah this is acceptance they just dont have space for first year

you're going to boston after a year? so its acceptance

[buoyant violet]

i mean theres a red box thats like 10in by 10in by 3inches that you can fill with food but you cant fill it and eat in the dining hall both for only one swipe

[round wyvern]

no they got option to switch after a year

[bright skiff]

Did anyone get it without the option to transfer?

[verbal helm]

i mean like a different experience

[signal crow]

Ngl i would rather go to Bob jones then spend more than a day in Oakland 🙏

[twilit hinge]

they track down that box?

[buoyant violet]

to avoid overcrowding no /s
tbh up to you

like if its closeby to where you live and cheap enough from the NPC then sure

[round wyvern]

looking at the avg accepted gpa to ucs from my school its not looking good for me

[round wyvern]

i live in california

and i dont get aid most likely

[twilit hinge]

wait r do u know how white hall is coming along

like just wondering if u passed by it to see if construction is still happening

[buoyant violet]

you pay 5 dining dollars to get it, and youre supposed to get it back once you return it but idrk about the second part

[topaz fern]

if you have other equally good options then no dont ed

[round wyvern]

but merceds avg accepted uc gpa from my school is 3.88 and i have a 3.85 so thats not a great start

[twilit hinge]

mm I'll see when I visit

[round wyvern]

my only other acceptances are stony brook and upitt

[buoyant violet]

but once you buy it with $5 you can get washed ones from the cashiers whenever you return your old one unwashed

[round wyvern]

and safeties ig but ignore that

none of my regulars are necessarily more or less likely than northeastern

[topaz fern]

i really wouldn't ed unless you specifically want nuin or global scholars

[twilit hinge]

thats pretty neat

[buoyant violet]

there hasnt been construction for a while not that i can see and i live in stwest so right next to it

[topaz fern]

do NOT bank on getting to boston first sem

[buoyant violet]

its water damage though so ???

[twilit hinge]

yea its water damage

[round wyvern]

but im pretty sure im not held to ed if i dont get into boston?

[twilit hinge]

all I heard was new paint

[topaz fern]

yeah no, if you have boston as ur first option you can back out of anything else

[twilit hinge]

so I was hoping to know if it was avalaible for us students incoming this fall

[topaz fern]

but if you get in boston thats that

[round wyvern]

yeah

[twilit hinge]

if not ig I'll just prob end up at the midtown

[round wyvern]

i mean my first choice was tufts but i got rejected from that ed

so im ok w boston ia pplie dto like 6 boston schools

[buoyant violet]

i can talk abt nu but im not really in a position to advise whether you should ED or not

[round wyvern]

how good are the co-op internship opportunities

[signal crow]

Is rent bad near northeastern

[bright skiff]

This institution is so fucky but ill count it as a W?

[buoyant violet]

im a first year idfk

[round wyvern]

and how bad are the dorms/housing options

[topaz fern]

im dorming in the sheraton hotel thats a 15 min walk from campus, lmk if you have questions about that

[mystic widget]

did anyone visit neu before applying

[buoyant violet]

are you nuin semliot?

[round wyvern]

i dont really

[grave leaf]

I did

[topaz fern]

yeah i was nuin rome

[twilit hinge]

oh I heard they also took over that recently

[round wyvern]

my gpa is a 3.4 its a miracle im getting deferred in the first place

[buoyant violet]

oh sick a friend from my high school did that this fall

[twilit hinge]

wait yea seml is the sheraton just for nuin

[grave leaf]

It’s a nice campus, but it was really crowded

[topaz fern]

dorms are top tier but the commute gets pretty dicey during winter

[buoyant violet]

ranked #1 so they must be good

[twilit hinge]

I dont mind

is there a common room

[grave leaf]

The building I was in for the start of the tour seemed like it was at max capacity

[twilit hinge]

for people to gather around occasionally

[buoyant violet]

no clue you can search this up though i think its around 1.1-1.2k each splitting a 4 bedroom in mission hill

[simple lantern]

Can I change to ED2 if I get deferred from my ED2 school on Friday 💀

[round wyvern]

what should i be thinking about before i ed2

[topaz fern]

not really, its more of a completely stripped hotel lobby with plastic tables and chairs

[round wyvern]

like what should make or break my decision

[topaz fern]

usually pretty empty

[twilit hinge]

damn

I forgot

theres a dorm

with a pool table right

dont remember which building

[topaz fern]

idk about that lol, prob on campus

[twilit hinge]

ig

[grave leaf]

Yeah I toured that dorm building

[buoyant violet]

bro semliot if you think dorms are top tier you havent been here long enough

[grave leaf]

It’s sick

[buoyant violet]

steast but the pool table there is horrible; theres an NU-only games room you can reserve that has like 4 high quality tables

[mystic tide]

bruh what?

[twilit hinge]

damn

[topaz fern]

sheraton double compared to iv double is like a 10 compard to a 1

[mystic tide]

thats so much

[normal pawn]

Did it cone

[atomic ibex]

how small is that program

[topaz fern]

i saw my friend's iv double and its no joke 1/3 the size of mine

[normal pawn]

The decision

[round wyvern]

so if i dont really have better options

[twilit hinge]

can I get a pic

[atomic ibex]

i know 3 people who did nuin rome also lol

[round wyvern]

what should i do 🧍

[twilit hinge]

u dont have to show

[buoyant violet]

okay yeah sheraton is okay but the majority of the dorms are forced and those suck

[atomic ibex]

that r ur class

[twilit hinge]

if u dont want to

cause just wonderingh ow big it was

[topaz fern]

210 in rome this past fall

[twilit hinge]

in general

[topaz fern]

nah ican 1 sec

[mystic tide]

good question

[twilit hinge]

yea the forced doubles and triples

[mystic tide]

lemme know the answer pls

[simple lantern]

Gotchu 🤞🤞

[trim edge]

is there a discord for northeastern?

[topaz fern]

yeah

[buoyant violet]

my stwest double can fit like 3.5 twin beds using the short side of a twin bed

[trim edge]

also any of you guys going to oakland?

[buoyant violet]

and maybe two lengthwise

[trim edge]

can you send link

[buoyant violet]

idk if a2c will let me/us

[round wyvern]

oh thats nice

[twilit hinge]

Yea I wouldnt try sending it here

[trim edge]

send in dm

[trim edge]

where is this?

[twilit hinge]

wait thats actually nice af

lmao

crazy view too

[topaz fern]

yeah 25th floor

[topaz fern]

sheraton dorms at neu

[twilit hinge]

I'll be down to walk to campus if its far if I get to live like this

[dusky vault]

oooo wait thats sick-

[buoyant violet]

the view isnt worth it compared to like stwest imo

[trim edge]

oakland or boston?

[round wyvern]

semliot you said if i have better optikns not to ed2

[dusky vault]

**ah to be at neu 😭 **

[round wyvern]

what if i dont have better options

[dusky vault]

man idc how long the walk is ill just rollerblade there

[twilit hinge]

I hear good things bout it

[meager isle]

should i just gamble the llc since every llc gets a diff building every year

[dusky vault]

is the campus easily rollerbladeable

[topaz fern]

then ed2 but keep fin aid in the front of ur head

[twilit hinge]

just do bouve

[round wyvern]

i can afford it

[twilit hinge]

arent u doing health science

[pliant lotus]

Thank you!!

[topaz fern]

theres a shuttle but its super janky and you cant always rely on it

[meager isle]

yah

[round wyvern]

or at least im being told by my parents that i can

[topaz fern]

its more of just if it happens to be there take it, not something you plan

[buoyant violet]

if you select COE/COS/DMSB you will likely get stwest or steast or speare which are the three nicest freshmen dorms

[twilit hinge]

is there noe nearby line damn

[twilit hinge]

bruh so why cs llc in shambles

[meager isle]

is kennedy good

[buoyant violet]

white hall displaced everybody

[buoyant violet]

no clue ive never been

[twilit hinge]

#plscomebackwhitehall

[trim edge]

is it oakland or boston?

[topaz fern]

boston

[buoyant violet]

white hall is known to have some pretty small and cramped rooms

[round wyvern]

im so conflicted god

i really feel like i should but im just like what if i miraculously get into a good uc

even though its very unlikely

[twilit hinge]

yea but I heard a lot of people got to make great memories there with their floors

[topaz fern]

if anyone got into nuin and has questions feel free to dm me

[round wyvern]

whats nuin again

[twilit hinge]

one semester abroad

[simple lantern]

London I think!

[trim edge]

oh damn

[vale seal]

dyk if its possible to switch schools once you go

[trim edge]

should i have chosen boston first campus?

[buoyant violet]

you can make that with any floor, it really helps having people in the same majors as like neighbors though

[twilit hinge]

yea

so imma just put cs llc either way for now

[vale seal]

like from social sciences to COS

[trim edge]

i thought oakland was better for cs

[twilit hinge]

and hope white hall comes back

[meager isle]

@twilit hinge @buoyant violet this what i got rn

[buoyant violet]

boston beats every other campus in everything basically

[twilit hinge]

looks noice

lemme show u mine

[buoyant violet]

maybe marine science at nahant lol

[trim edge]

can i switch

[buoyant violet]

you cant switch campuses from what you got accepted to

[dusky vault]

ooo do you know what global scholar places you're admitted to yet?

[buoyant violet]

unless you follow the 1 year track to boston

[round wyvern]

depends if you got into oakland 4 years or 1 year then go to boston

[trim edge]

how do ik

[round wyvern]

yeah you can switch after a year

[buoyant violet]

the bold

[round wyvern]

it says after oyur first year you can switch to boston campus???

[trim edge]

so i can switch permanent to boston tho

[buoyant violet]

yes

[remote chasm]

is that NEU dorm

[trim edge]

or just boston for one year

[twilit hinge]

@meager isle

thats what I put

[round wyvern]

permanent

[remote chasm]

Oh yeah it is

[round wyvern]

theyre not gonna make you switch every year??

[buoyant violet]

no

[trim edge]

can i sswitch first year

[round wyvern]

only after first year

[buoyant violet]

looks fine but its not 100% that you get into any of those

id estimate like 98% though

[trim edge]

i thibk i made the wrong decusion

[twilit hinge]

they put by enrollment piority

[round wyvern]

not really, even ppl who put boston as first priority get this

[twilit hinge]

if I dont get that im gonna be so confused

cause I put my deposit in quite early

[meager isle]

i put deposit in a week later lol

[buoyant violet]

one of my ED friends in engineering got placed in the business dorm and he def didnt enroll late
it wasnt one of his three options either

[twilit hinge]

I did I think maybe 3-4 days after

[graceful helm]

Should i ed 2 to neu im just concerned about tuiton whatchu guys think?

[meager isle]

what building did he get

[buoyant violet]

speare

[twilit hinge]

is speare good

[meager isle]

so not a loss either

[buoyant violet]

which is fine but i hear theyre having a spat with their residence director

[buoyant violet]

yes its business

[meager isle]

whats the worst dorms

[twilit hinge]

^

[twilit hinge]

dormless

[topaz fern]

from what ive seen its east village or iv quad

[twilit hinge]

east village?

aint that the honors tho

[topaz fern]

yeah but 2 forced doubles right next to each other aint it

[twilit hinge]

ohhh

that sucks

[meager isle]

ive heard a lot abt the iv quad lol

[buoyant violet]

semliot do you really think having to walk 10-15 minutes each way for dinner in the cold is worth having a nice view

[topaz fern]

for me yes, for most people probably not

its more the size of the room for me

some dorms ive been in are literal hallways

[buoyant violet]

fair

[meager isle]

https://www.tiktok.com/@maiqiqin/video/7159650841945836846?q=northeastern dorm&t=1706755363640 how do i get this

[hollow surge]

[hollow surge]

NEU literally overenrolls to the extent kids dorm random places

they also have alot of forced dorms

[barren pendant]

should i go to uiuc or northeastern for cs

[buoyant violet]

a bit of Ted the movie was filmed in midtown hotel

[hollow surge]

like tripples and doubles were they shldnt

[verbal helm]

[buoyant violet]

like the mark wahlberg one

[topaz fern]

tuition half off if you sleep in the park neu 2028

[twilit hinge]

yea i heard abotu that

lmao

[hollow surge]

[barren pendant]

[topaz fern]

one big closet and one big desk

[verbal helm]

[graceful helm]

Alright

Also the co ops pay at neu right??

[hollow surge]

ya but idk if its too late

[hollow surge]

ya most

[round wyvern]

[graceful helm]

For asking for an aid estimate?

[remote chasm]

you can work at co op during frehsman year right

[hollow surge]

yea

[graceful helm]

Alright

[graceful helm]

Aight ill try

[hollow surge]

mmm i dont think so depends on major tho

[hollow surge]

good luck

[topaz fern]

no you cant co-op until summer before sophomore

[remote chasm]

ah gotcha, thanks

[twilit hinge]

u can get an exteranl internship freshmen summer but it prob hard

[buoyant violet]

spring of sophomore*

[topaz fern]

and the typical cycles are fall or spring sophomore

[meager isle]

@twilit hinge everyone posts abt sheraton

[topaz fern]

yeah typo

[hollow surge]

i mean ive had an internship in high school

[twilit hinge]

im royally screwed

[buoyant violet]

fall junior or spring sophomore

[twilit hinge]

💀

[hollow surge]

but again depends on major

[twilit hinge]

well damn

[hollow surge]

nah only NUin gets sheraton usually

[topaz fern]

oh thats what it is yeah

[twilit hinge]

should I do spring cycle first

then fall

[kind kernel]

I got in but Oakland campus lol

[twilit hinge]

in case spring I get no offers

[buoyant violet]

you dont get to pick

[twilit hinge]

oh waht

[topaz fern]

i think you get randomly assigned

[twilit hinge]

is there a way to get a preference in

or u just gotta pray

[buoyant violet]

nope

[twilit hinge]

shit

[topaz fern]

not that i know of

[twilit hinge]

gimme that spring

[hollow surge]

its by order or deposit

[buoyant violet]

i think you might be able to switch if you find someone with the opposite schedule and same college

[topaz fern]

i got spring

[twilit hinge]

did any of u take accelerate

[hollow surge]

the sooner u submit your deposit the sooner you get better dorms

[buoyant violet]

not for coop cycle no

[twilit hinge]

ooh ok

[buoyant violet]

yes i did micro and architecture 100% worth it

[hollow surge]

oh i meant dorms

[hollow surge]

OMGG IM DOING ARCH NEXT YEAR

[twilit hinge]

were there any gen req

classes to take

[buoyant violet]

saves like 15k of tuition if you complete your nupaths

[twilit hinge]

im planning to do

writing seminar

and then another gen

[buoyant violet]

i researched a ton and figured out what nupath i needed and picked accelerate classes to finish those

[twilit hinge]

cause I cant access nupath

[prime gale]

Im debating if going to nu in program is rly worth or not

[meager isle]

https://www.tiktok.com/@emem1414/video/6893904191421435141?q=northeastern dorm hotel&t=1706755762576 is westin the same thing or nah

[twilit hinge]

all I know is my major path

[topaz fern]

it is 1000% worth it unless you have like some kind of homesickness or culture shock

best experience of my 18 years

[buoyant violet]

eddie search up "northeastern plan of study (your major here)" and then click on it and somewhere on that page it should tell you what nupaths you'll need

[twilit hinge]

ok lemem try

[prime gale]

Im jus a lil nervous abt the coming back part, im worried abt missing out on getting friends n joining clubs n allat

How did it go for you?

[topaz fern]

the transition? or nuin

[prime gale]

The transition

[twilit hinge]

is it this

[prime gale]

Also google says u gotta make ur own food

[buoyant violet]

well whats your major

[twilit hinge]

cs

[buoyant violet]

i can find it for ya

[hollow surge]

cuz mine were mized in with my course requirements

[round wyvern]

i think i want to ed2

[hollow surge]

so they were all related to my major so idk

[topaz fern]

it went perfectly fine, no trouble making friends and they give you plenty of leeway into getting into clubs

[twilit hinge]

i just couldnt tell which is my actual core

and which is my gen

[prime gale]

Oh good, How was cooking 💀

[buoyant violet]

oh i cant upload pics can i dm

[topaz fern]

LOL well yes you have to find or make your own food, i was rooming with 2 bodybuilders who ate like 5x as much as a normal person and cooked like 3 dinners for themselves every night

so i just either ate out or leeched off them (they were fine with it)

[twilit hinge]

yes

[prime gale]

Ah i see, but overall food wasnt a problem

[topaz fern]

no, but it definitely helps to know how to make easy dishes with minimal ingredients

otherwise a bulk of your spending money will go towards restaurants

[topaz fern]

yeah definitely oakland is a full on campus

[viscid quartz]

[mystic tide]

they ain't trying?

[meager isle]

sadly everyone lives by USNews lol

[viscid quartz]

unfortunately

acting like employers crosscheck your uni with current us news rankings

[mystic tide]

NEU has spent the last 10-20 years trying to go up the ranking

theres articles all about it

[viscid quartz]

as does every school on earth

[twilit hinge]

what is that caption

[mystic tide]

NEU especially

[twilit hinge]

💀

[mystic tide]

also tbh NEU did it best

they actually reached T50

[viscid quartz]

neu has acc improved ppl fail to see that

[meager isle]

yeah

[mystic tide]

they have

[meager isle]

colleges have always been a business

[twilit hinge]

haters gonna keep hating

[meager isle]

the articles are old

[mystic tide]

everyone hates on NEU

[twilit hinge]

fr

[mystic tide]

I'm saying it's actually pretty decent

[meager isle]

only this sub

[mystic tide]

better than the haters say
