Northeastern Receives Record Undergrad Applications Fall 2024
" The incoming class will include about 2,600 students in Boston, Dattagupta says, as well as 475 at Northeastern’s undergraduate campus Oakland, California, and another 300 at the university’s undergraduate campus in London."
“The university received 98,373 applications for fall 2024…”
Holy moly! Crazy year!
Thats under 3.5% acceptance rate
You’re not factoring in yield rate.
It also looks like those numbers don’t include the NU.in students.
I’m thankful S24 scratched this one off his list.
With that level of apps I’m guessing we will have a few more weeks till EA decisions come out…
As a longtime Boston area resident, I don’t understand this craze for Northeastern. 
But admissions has done an absolutely stunning job of marketing the name.
At its core Northeastern is still what it always was: a non-traditional school that emphasizes getting out of the classroom and experiencing the real world, either through coop and now, through global experiences.
Have you seen the campus recently? It is three times the size compared to when I graduated.
Oh, what you say is absolutely true. But I still fail to understand why it appeals to people from California and Brazil.
Boston! Same reason that BU and BC have evolved from local schools to national schools.
Precisely it’s 3.43%, considering yield rate of last year is 49%, that would be 7% acceptance rate, similar as last year.
Ed will fill 50% of the enrollment, the ea/rd will fill the rest, the acceptance rate for ea/rd would be around 5.5% if my math is right.
My native Californian D24 dragged me to Boston to see NEU…(and by dragged I mean nagged). It’s the co-op concept that caught her interest. And once there she LOVED it. She loved Boston, she loved the campus, she loved the dorm, she loved the Nursing student on the visit panel, the vibe…everything. I think she just wants to explore something completely different than Los Angeles. Home will always be here for her 
$80K price tag will scare some off who don’t qualify/receive financial aid.
That would be true of any private university.
Is she going to be in the nursing program? My daughter will be in nursing this fall.
She was deferred EA and didn’t love it enough to switch to ED2 so RD it is. Congrats to your daughter!
