<p>Just thought i’d add to this. I’m currently a freshman in honors at northeastern living in IV. The major differences are the separate classes and where you live. We moved in a week before everyone else and had activities all week to get to know people. I think the biggest advantage to it is that it really creates a sense of community and makes a bigger school feel much smaller. We take some of our classes only with other honors students and there are classes that are only offered to us that I have found to be some of the best classes. In response to someone who said that IV is not all honors: The first 9 floors is only honors freshman. There are no other freshman living in this dorm. The higher floors are sophomores and older and don’t have to be honors, but this doesn’t really affect the freshman at all.
Also, OP I had very similar stats to you. (2080 SATs 3.65 weighted gpa) and I’m a communications major. hope this helps!</p>
