I think the argument is that co-ops lead to more assurance of having a job lined up

Do you have stats to back this up this argument? Just curious. I wouldn’t be surprised if more W&M students went to grad school quickly after undergrad than Northeastern students, which in turn would mean more Northeastern students would have jobs.

I’m sure that students with co-ops do better getting their first jobs than students without co-ops or internships. I am less convinced that students with co-ops do better than students with internships.

For the record, I work directly with at least 2 people that got into their jobs through co-ops from Northeastern. I also work directly with multiple W&M alums. Field: government / IR
