WHAT is your dream job???

Working "at united nations" could be anything from security guard at the front door to simultaneous interpreter. What is it exactly that you want to do?

Northeastern offers a co-op at the UN, if that interests you.

Look at the Diplomacy program at Seton Hall. Easy access to internships at UN.

Georgetown's School of Foreign Service is highly regarded. They have a program in International Economics if you bend in that direction. Sure you could put that to good use at the U.N.
