Again, great choices - but a tough major.
You might look at NEU and find out - what types of co ops are students in those majors getting - because it always helps to have work experience (to get a job) and if you are ensured a co op, that’s assured experience.
But - that’s also a different way.
Brandeis will be excellent and smaller. UW and UW are both government hot spots - with Wisconsin in the state capital and Washington having all levels of government but not the state capital - but no shortage of opportunity.
Really not a bad choice here.
But given it’s often a tough major, I would be curious to see what types of co-ops NEU students are getting to see - I could see that being a differentiator - but that’s not necessarily a reason to choose it.
Different schools, different locales - you don’t have a bad choice - but Brandeis (to me) is most different - so if you want that small school experience…
Good luck
