<p>Hey guys,
I’m a past NUin student and studied abroad in Australia in 2012. So the NUin program is not close to the same level as being waitlisted. The NUin program consists of a variety of students, including those far above the average of the fall accepted students. The students in NUin are not those “scraped from the bottom of the barrel” kind, but they are students that the Northeastern University’s Admissions Office believed would best represent Northeastern across the globe. Northeastern is becoming a global University very fast and the NUin program shows just that. Some believe the NUin program exists because of housing on Northeastern campus and then they choose the most well rounded individuals to go abroad. Some believe its because of Financial/Social status of the student. These are simply rumors. I know it is odd not being accepted to attend Northeastern in the fall, but it does not mean you are not good enough. As I’ve said, I know students who went that had top of the line GPAs, SAT/ACT scores, lots of ECs, etc. I highly suggest you attend an “Inside NUin” session to learn more about the NUin program and what it has to offer. If you have questions about it, anyone can inbox me and I’ll be more than happy to reply! :)</p>
