A bit expensive but worth it.

Tips: Northeastern has a lot of Indian and Chinese students in their master courses. The university has some or other events going on every day. Finding a part-time on campus is a bit tough due to the high competition. Boston has a lot of students and overall is a good city but everything here is on the expensive side.

Likes (Safety): The campus has its own police force and a committee called OSSCR that looks into the safety of the students. Also, there is a transportation service that Northeastern provides for stude...

Come with an open mind and explore.

Tips: Students should try applying in the first cycle of admission to get a good chance at getting a scholarship. Northeastern has a strong presence of the Indian community so the environment feels inclusive with different events happening throughout the year. Overall, I am satisfied with my course as it exposed me to the technical skills required. One can also make use of Northeastern’s career design tool to develop additional skills. Joining student organisations, attending cultural events, and expl...

University is at a good location. Lots of students and less on campus opportunities.

Tips: Coming to Northeastern, I realised making connections from the start is important to get a job or to know about work-related things. Here I saw less diversity majorly graduate courses have Indians. Northeastern does not provide scholarships. I have not experienced a big cultural shift coming here as majorly my course has Indians. I liked the location of the university. It’s very convenient for commuting. The campus is also good, with recreational activities and few clubs.

Likes (Public transportation): The university is well ...

Good course work and learnings.

Tips: Boston offers vocational advantages to a lot of job seekers, depending on the job profile and role. Northeastern University has a really good course work and provides experiential learning in the form of 360 huntington found which is a $1.5 M found managed by students. It is a plus point to students coming for MS in Finance. The market is pretty dried up right now for everyone so I can't really comment on post-study work opportunities but I am optimistic about market conditions.

Try to come here with an open mind.

Tips: Just unlearn everything you know. The way of teaching and thinking about anything, just come with an open mind. Things can get stressful but you will get through it with time. If you have a good resume with diverse extracurriculars you can get a scholarship, the amount is decided by the school.

No help from university in finding work.

Tips: Less help is available in finding job opportunities. Otherwise, college is easygoing and academically sound. Food and accommodation options are easily available. Scholarships are available. Work options are abundant in the US. A cultural shift was there but it was gradual. Need the person to be adaptable to circumstances.

Likes (Student Life): Ample events and club activities to keep the students busy. Great platform to interact with other students. The college has ample buildings and sitting space to study and work....

Good University. Lots of Indians in Graduate studies

Tips: One should consider cost of living before moving here. Also, they should know about the programs. Think about the kind of classes you'll have, the chances to get work experience through co-op programme. Also, try to find places you can work while studying as it helps in managing expenses.

Likes (Quality of faculty): They teach well giving their own experiences as examples. They might talk a lot in class to explain things or they could encourage students to talk and share ideas. Sometimes, they use groups or do hands-on stu...

One of the best colleges in the USA

Tips: There wasn't a lot of cultural shift I experienced because there are many Indian students studying at the university. Plus there are lots of cultural events held on campus that keep the students engaged and make it easier for them to transition. I did not avail of any scholarship. I am very much satisfied with the university and the country I am in because it has a lot of opportunities for immigrants.

Likes (Indian Food): There are many Indian restaurants in Boston with a large variety of food. If you like eating So...

Northeastern helped me achieve my dream

Tips: There is not much of a cultural shift because there are a lot of Indian students studying at NEU. It was easy for me to transition because I was mostly surrounded by Indians. I did not avail any scholarship here. Overall, I am moderately satisfied at this moment because the job market is unstable.

Likes (Internships): Northeastern has a website called Nu works that helps students to get internships. Apart from this, students have to connect with professionals on other platforms but eventually, everyone finds somethin...

Overall I am positive about the university.

Tips: On campus jobs are not available easily. Moreover limited resources are available for job search. Ultimately one has to find opportunities on their own. It is a good course with a perfectly designed curriculum of technical and theoretical parts. Northeastern in general has many resources and various clubs that one can engage in.

Likes (Public transportation): There is good connectivity of trains and buses around the city which also connects well to the university. These are the most convenient and cost effective for students ...

A life-changing experience. The experience which will be cherished for life.

Tips: Living expenses in Boston are high, but the people here are very friendly. The campus is situated in the center of the city with super friendly and helpful staff. If you are looking for a party town or university then this is definitely not what you should be looking for. It is a very good place to live in though.

Likes (Internships): The co-op program or internship is very good in this university as almost everyone gets an internship. Northeastern University also helps in finding internships and they also have a ded...
