Yeah, NEU’s really hard to get in- I would absolutely classify it as a reach, but you never know. /musing
there are alternate entry programs (Global Scholars- two semesters abroad, each semester different location, then 2nd year and beyond is at Boston campus. NU.in is more popular imo, with 1 semester abroad, and then Boston campus 2nd semester and beyond. if those are of interest to you, know both options are relatively easier ways of getting in, but nothing is guaranteed and I’m sure admission to those programs is equally tough. /honest
I think OP has a shot at NEU, but in order to have the best chances of getting in, my best advice is apply ED (if financially feasible and #1 choice) or apply EA- both rounds skew the most amount of acceptances- (this is from my experience of talking to admitted/incoming/current students + their CDS) /thoughtful
Northeastern also has combined majors (I’m a incoming freshman doing a combined major in Bio + English, so)- this one with CS + Business will be up your alley. /warmly
It’s not letting me copy and paste the link directly, so here- the list of combined majors, you should be able to find the CS + Business combined major. /warmly
feel free to PM me about NEU if you have any other questions about it /warmly
