Entrepreneur in Training
I think this community is great because there is a lot to get involved in and lots of money/funds available if you have a great idea.

Guys and Girls
Girls are typically kind of catty and competitive. There is a lot of over-exaggeration and drama.
Guys are pretty low key and laid back. Most of them smoke pot and still party like they're in high school.

Parking Is Hard
If you buy a parking pass, it's okay - but you usually have to drive up to the 4th or 5th floor of the parking garage before you find a spot (takes forever and makes me dizzy!)
If you try to just find a spot on the street, you'll be lucky if your car is still there at the end of the day because the towing companies love to come around our school!

Academics in the Entrepreneurship Program
There are a lot of options available for the Entrenepeurship program - such as interesting courses, co-ops related to start-ups and study abroad/dialogue of civilizations programs. I just wish I knew about them earlier on at my time at NEU.

Night Life in Boston at Northeastern
It's fun when you live on campus because there are lots of parties and bars to go to. Once you become 21, though, everyone just goes to the bars and parties are only pre-games. The clubs in Boston aren't that great, but it's really just all about the bar scene.

Reasons for Choosing a College
I like my school because of the co-op program, but I am starting to realize that I could've done some amazing summer internships had I just been out of school in May and able to work June-Aug. (With co-op, I don't start summer until July, so I miss out on all the summer internships).
I enjoyed my time at NEU, but it wasn't anything amazing. I have fond memories of Mission Hill parties, fun classes and lots of chances to figure out my career path with the co-op program. I was also able to live in NYC for a year for co-ops and then Italy for a semester for my study abroad.
