Greek Life Isn't a Major Part of Student Life

Greek life is great for students looking to form a good group of friends freshman year, but it doesn't influence campus life very much. They do have parties and fundraisers, but the majority of students aren't involved in Greek Life, so you don't need to be in a fraternity of sorority to have fun and fit in!

Parking Nightmare

Northeastern is in the middle of a major city, so finding a parking spot on the street is nearly impossible. The school does offer parking permits, but they are fairly expensive.

There but Not Seen

Drug and alcohol policy at Northeastern is extremely stict. If caught students will be reported. I have found that if you want to drink or use drugs there are opportunities but you have to go look for it. There is very little to no pressure for students to use drugs or alochol. There are always events each weekend held by Northeastern or in the city itself that do not involve drugs or alcohol
