Hello there! I wanted to make a video about things I've learned about Northeastern that I wish someone had told me, so here it is. These are all based on my own perspective and experiences, so my opinions in no way represent the opinions of the whole school.
I realized after editing that I didn't say explicitly if Northeastern is a 'party school' or not. I think it really depends because there are students that party hard, but there's still a community for people that don't want to! Basically, it's what you make of it so it can be a party school if you want haha.
If you go to Northeastern and you disagree with something I said, feel free to comment it below so prospective students can see more of what actual students think! Other than that, I hope you enjoy this video :)
Let me know what school you'll be heading to (hopefully) this fall! Thanks so much for stopping by, and I’ll see you next time :)
