NU In Program or Waitlist - which is better?

<p>With the large numbers of applications at NU over the past few years, movement off the waitlist has slowed and is not guaranteed. I am not sure if there is a statistic you can find or ask admissions how many were accepted off the waitlist last year. But it is known that waitlisted students have absolutely no idea if they will ever come off the waitlist. They are encouraged to make a choice and deposit at another school. </p>

<p>NUin students absolutely are qualified and will be on campus in January. Once there, they are fully integrated into the school and no one knows or cares where they were in the fall. My D is a sophomore currently on her first co-op, she is a member of a sorority and some other clubs. She liked her housing spring of '13, had a good selection for housing fall/spring and is moving steadily through the academic/coop cycle.<br>
If Northeastern is a top choice, and NUin was offered it, I would encourage anyone to investigate it thoroughly, read threads from last year, go to an NUin information session and decide what is the best for you personally. It isn’t for everyone, but many who do go embrace it fully. </p>

<p>You can search youtube for NUin Dublin 2013 (or which ever site you might be interested in) to see of the student participants’ videos slides. </p>
