Enriching education and environment.
Tips: The college offers a welcoming and supportive environment with strong academics, smooth cultural transition, many part-time options and scholarships. However, at the same time, it's very difficult to find a post-study full-time job as an F1 visa holder, so one should remain patient, and it will truly pay off. Overall, I am very satisfied with my course and experience in the US.

Very high - over 90% because Northeastern Illinois University's mission is access so if the student has a GPA of 2.5 for UG they are admitted.  If they have a GPA of 2.75 for GR classes they are admited (but also must have 2 letters of recommendation and a personal statement).
