Top university with great exposure and very expensive.

Tips: One important thing to keep in mind before joining Northeastern is that it is one of the biggest universities in the sense of the number of students studying here and hence it becomes very competitive to find on campus jobs. There are a lot of international students and most of them are Indians so you may feel that you are not getting enough exposure. I did not avail any scholarship but I think it is difficult for international to get one. Limited knowledge on this one so won't comment a lot. Overall, I am satisfied with the university because it does give you exposure to one of the top university as well as city of the United States.

Likes (Public transportation): The public transport of the city itself is amazing. There are multiple routes, trains and buses available. University campus being in downtown makes it very well connected to the rest of the city. The public transport is not very cheap but still it is easily affordable and reasonable.

Dislikes (Value for money): Expensive tuition fee compared to other universities. Compulsory health insurance, which is very expensive from the university. NO extra transportation benefits to students, like giving metro cards etc. Always charges for everything. And charges extra compared to other universities.

Worth every penny you spend.

Tips: The education system is gonna be totally different, be prepared for that and you will get used to it. Scholarship is automatically given if you are eligible after applying. It’s an interesting journey, I got to learn so many new things and different cultures.

Likes (Public transportation): The university is mostly the Centre of the accommodation students choose, which makes it very accessible to all kinds of transportation like the range lane, green lane and public buses. Usually it will cost not more than eight dollars per day for a round trip and if you live far away, it may go up to 15 dollars.

Dislikes (Part time work): There are a lot of on campus jobs but the competition is very high. 20hr max per week is the rule; it’s manageable. One can’t do beyond that so it can be managed 20 dollars/hour is average pay and it varies depending on the position; it can be less or more.

A globally engaging and career oriented experience at Northeastern University.

Tips: Students should know that Northeastern University offers a perfect balance between academics and hands on experience through its co-op programme. The coursework can be intense so time management is essential. The university has a diverse international community strong career services and excellent networking opportunities that truly prepare students for global careers.

Likes (Public transportation): I feel very safe both on and around the Northeastern University campus. The campus is well-lit there are security offices patrolling regularly, and the university has a strong safety culture. Even during late hours I've notice that the street near campus are busy with students which adds to the sense of security.

Dislikes (Part time work): While there are a few restaurants that serve food from my country the variety and authenticity are somewhat limited. The dishes are often adjusted to suits local taste and certain ingredients that make the cuisine special are hard to find.

Competitive and growth driven university.

Tips: I have transitioned a lot before coming here and there is a lot of cultural shift over here. I did not get a scholarship but I got an on campus job over here. After 2 semesters, I am not much satisfied with the university since it is really competitive.

Likes (Safety): Northeastern University Provides a Northeastern University Police Department called NUPD and also Provides a 2 mile radius shuttle called red every which takes care of the students safety I did not had any bad experience in this city Boston is really a good city to live in .

Dislikes (Post study jobs): A lot of companies offer H-1B status over here and it's really a good Work balance lifestyle over here compared to what the work balance is in India. There are a lot of job roles over here, like DevOps and SDE, data analytics and data engineering are dying due to AI.

Great job opportunities after graduation.

Tips: Start applying for on campus jobs before arriving, apply to scholarships wherever possible, as it doesn't hurt to try. If you are considering this university, I would highly recommend going to their Boston campus as they have better infrastructure and facilities at the same cost. This campus is great for people who have relatives staying in Seattle and want to stay with them.

Likes (Indian Food): Ample Indian restaurants in and around Seattle and there are many Indian grocery stores too around the university which give home delivery too if you don't have a car. There are many Indian temples around that provides meals on weekends. I usually cook at home as eating outside can be expensive.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): You can study here on F-1 visa and work on OPT for 3 years including STEM. Post OPT, you will need your H1-B to be picked to continue working in the US. Getting a green card and US citizenship can be time consuming and may take years. I would love to stay here for a long looking at the weather, quality of life, etc.
