Yes, she was a rising junior, I knew she would have a long search process.
@premed_equestrian I hope you two find each other!
@acpurple22 I think there were two main reasons. First, although I wrote that she was interested in freshman year abroad, it was actually more of an interest in global experiences in general, and Northeastern has a lot more of that than Drexel. Second, she did a two week summer program at Northeastern the year before her senior year, and I think that helped her feel at home on the campus. So when the option do do Oakland for a year and then definitely transfer to Boston was on the table, it outweighed Drexel. But Drexel was a very strong fit for her, because of the co-op program and the urban setting, and she would have been happy there.
@DigitalDad I had to ask her 
(note: a window popped up to tell me that it is better to combine responses and use @ so I am doing that now - sorry for cluttering the thread with mini-responses, it’s a college confidential learning curve)
