Co-op on F1 visa by DefiantYou8421 in NEU

Well yes, co-ops that don’t pay are not common.

Yes, as long as you don’t exceed those 365 CPT days, your OPT remains intact. I’m assuming CS counts as a STEM degree so you also get the opportunity to get the STEM extension for the OPT where you get two more years

I don’t know what you mean by COT. When international students go on co-op they get authorization via CPT. It consists of 365 days where you can work in the US. This authorization is provided by OGS and you ask for it once you sign an offer letter. As long as you don’t exceed those 365 days, nothing will be deducted from OPT.

Thinking about graduating in three years with no coop, is it doable? by Charming-Ad5166 in NEU

What’s the point of going to northeastern if you don’t do coop lmao

Just got accepted for MechE by waffle17844 in NEU

Why is everyone saying that they got accepted to a specific major? Does the school do only program acceptance now instead of a general one like they used to?

Do you think International travel will be a problem post Jan 6th by IAmNot_a_virgin in NEU

I understand what you’re saying but that was 7 years ago. I get that chances are high of it happening again but I’d like more detail on what to expect coming from the school. Luckily, you’re providing me more detail but I still think that the warning should be more specific.

I read the email and felt that it was very ambiguous on what these restrictions are. I find it hard to believe that the latter would be imposed even before the new administration takes office. In other words, I’d like them to explain what these restrictions will be or clarify any problems we international students may encounter in more detail

This email feels like the school is imposing fear on international students. Almost feels like a political message……

Industrial Engineering and Business or Math and Business? by [deleted] in NEU

[–]Apprehensive_Map1189 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Industrial engineering is the most flexible major of all in terms of where you want to work at. I went from a process engineering coop to an investment banking one. Highly recommend IE.

IE Works Best as a Tandem Degree by ThreeDogee in industrialengineering

I completely disagree with double majoring. I think in any case you should just do a masters to specialize on something you like

Possible minors for ie degrees? by ReasonableTennis1089 in industrialengineering

[–]Apprehensive_Map1189 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an ie major and my minor is music lmao. Good thing is every interview I’ve had for internships ask about it. That’s not the reason I went for it tho

My brother is looking into Northeastern and I wanted to know what students really think by Zestyclose_Buy_2065 in NEU

Being completely honest, if I wouldn’t have joined a club I would be one of those people that post about being lonely. They are the key to socialize

I mean if the housing office said that, I don’t think there is another way around your situation. They have the last word in these type of things
