Northeastern University Top Questions

CO - OP

When speaking of Northeastern, I focus on the guarantee of a successful future. With the four major experiential learning opportunities - cooperative education, international studies, service learning, and research - there is a unique way for every student to take studies beyond the classroom, explore his/her passions, and prepare for the future. I am proud to boast that Northeastern is the leader in the cooperative education program, with many colleges using it as a model to form their own programs, seeing how successful Northeastern's has been. And the cherry on top is the ideal location - the city of Boston!

Northeastern University is located in a great area. It is not a clique based community like many high schools. Northeastern offers its students so many great programs; someone is always able to help you figure things out. The co-op program is the most exciting. Students get to work in their feild of study and get real life experience. This program not only helps students feel more confident working in their feild, it also gives them a better chance of finding a great job after graduation.
