<p>NU is known as a good school in the US, but not nearly as good as Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia, MIT, etc. etc. etc. As far as I know, it’s not likely Northwestern will be a household name in the Middle East or Canada. I know people in the US who think Northwestern in on par with Northeastern, even though Northeastern isn’t highly ranked at all… The name kind of makes the school appear less prestigious, as well… Might not be worth the money if you are concerned about prestige…</p>
<p>Did you get accepted to any other schools that you are still considering. Maybe we could help you determine which schools are more prestigious internationally than others…</p>
