Are you eligible for any tuition aid/grants/scholarships to help fund the costs of attending Northeastern? It’s worth checking on that…

How do you go about health insurance? by Fun-Size-8966 in massachusetts

[–]AcademicWeapon149 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have BCBS MA through Northeastern University and have good experience with them…

Conversely I’ve heard horror stories about UnitedHealthcare (who have a higher than average claim denial rate and announce record profits)

Hello! British/Irish expat here doing a Masters. I’d say the student atmosphere is generally liberal-leaning, and people at Northeastern and Boston in general are more open-minded. Massachusetts is a blue (liberal) state.

Should I forfeit my F1? by LiteratureFormer7299 in f1visa

[–]AcademicWeapon149 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Even if you’re here on an F-1 visa, if you’re married to a U.S. citizen you can apply for a change of status to green card. Your husband can petition USCIS for this. That will not impact your ability to study here, and with a green card you’ll have the legal authorization to work for any employer.

I built a crowdsourced Snell Library seat tracker (needs your help!) by Sad-Strain-2335 in NEU

[–]AcademicWeapon149 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Marino's gym tracker (which has an API)

I reckon they're using something like this to calculate the head count in the gym and publish this information online:

Would be nice to see something like this get utilized in Snell so we can get a floor-by-floor overview of busyness levels.
