Is it really worth the debt?

<p>Yes, its expensive but the cost is basically the same as most private schools. Personally, I blame rankings for driving up the cost of higher education in America, but that’s a story for another day. Anyway, don’t forget about CO-OP EARNINGS.The average NEU student will earn between $50-55k over the course of 3 co-ops. This money can be used to defray tuition costs. The people who are on scholarship make out like bandits because they get to keep all their earnings. I had a classmate who used his co-op earnings to buy a small condo near campus which he lived in until he graduated. When he sold it had increased in value by about 40%. Quite a nice graduation present I would say.</p>
