Major: Finance at IU and Business and Poli Sci at NEU most likley,
-Cost isnt a huge factor cuz I figured a way to make the cost diff between the two pretty insignificant

IU
Pros
-Kelley is worldclass
-Great for IB and Consulting
-Bloomington is fun great food
-Cheaper
Great greek life/social scene
-Could get out of some english, econ, history from ap credit not a big deal tho
-Have a ton of friends going
-Very spirted
-IBW workshop

Cons
-In indiana
-Huge school 10k undergrad in kelley so less resources and access to professors
-U have to stick with business very hard to double major outside kelley and grad in 4 years
-Indiana as a overall school is mid
-You need to grind hard to stand out
-Gen ed is super annoying there

#

NEU
Pros
-CO-op program
-Good job prospects
-In boston the best city ever
-Could work and study around the world
-Starting in London very happy
-Great combined majors
-Prestige
-Boston enviorment would push me to be better
-Better transtion to real life
-I can take summer classes anywhere

Con
-More expensive slighty for me
-Overcrowded a bit
-4 months in oakland most likley
-Worse for IB and Consulting recruting if I wanna do that
-Wouldnt really get ap credit
-Not a huge party school not a huge deal tho
-Non traditional college exprience
-Could have housing issues

Also very much leaning Northeastern right now

#

personally, I'd pick IU but apparently you prefer NEU. IU seems to be a better program and offers better college life, imo.

Yeah its a very hard choice for me to make honestly

#

IU on paper is better for what I want to do but I think id get further in life going to Northeastern cuz its in boston and the co-op stuff

#

also the school size is kinda a dealbreaker for me

#

there are soooo many people

#

like 40k undergrad

tawdry bone
