<p>^Yeah I have a friend who co-oped at Goldman Sachs, along with some other NEU students. He’s mentioned that he feels pretty confident about landing a job in the field (although the economy isn’t being particularly friendly to finance right now, but that’s another issue) and I know he wants to end up in New York. Anyway, the business program has a good reputation in the business world… which in the end is what matters. NU’s reputation among the general public is way less important than it’s reputation within individual fields, which is why I think you should take “NEU name and connections don’t get you as far” with a grain of salt.</p>
<p>But, GW is a great school. I have a few friends there who love it, although they’re all political science/liberal arts, so I don’t know how good their business program is. I don’t think you can go wrong with either school.</p>
