Is Northeastern Worth the Cost?

This is still (and will always be, hopefully) true but remember that unless you have incoming AB/IB/DE credit to lessen it, you’ll still have to take 8 semesters of classes. Without credit, the cost of Northeastern is 4 * (yearly net price) - (co-op earnings) + (co-op living costs). For each half semester of credit you have incoming, you can take 0.25 off of the 4 years number. Generally, co-op earnings cover living costs, but how much extra varies by major and co-op. Generally, it’s best to assume that the cost of Northeastern is total 4 x COA and then a bit less for high paying majors.
