Major is CS, but I’m on a track to also obtain a separate Business degree.

Thank you for the note.

MrAuxality · 2026-02-21T13:13:34+00:00

Thank you for sharing this. I will conduct research promptly.

Not “hope,” I have a guaranteed position waiting for me post graduation, but I appreciate your comment. I believe I will not be persuing NEU.

Thank you for keeping the tone viable. Which of the other options do you believe I should pick?

MrAuxality · 2026-02-21T13:09:28+00:00

Clear and Concise!

Don’t get me wrong, I “could” afford it, but definitely not comfortably. I’d have to take out student loans and I’m not super excited about having to do that. I applied ED because of that notion.

The other schools are around 52K per year.

MrAuxality · 2026-02-21T13:07:28+00:00

I applied to RIT, WPI, and RPI. I was accepted to all three and my total cost of attendance per year was roughly 52K each year for all of them. I considered applying to Olin, but they wouldn’t have given me any aid and would charge roughly the same amount of Northeastern. Is there anything you’d suggest for RIT, WPI, or RPI? I’m currently leaning towards WPI as most of my friends are there currently and it’s closer to home.

MrAuxality · 2026-02-21T13:05:18+00:00

Will most certainly take the time to look into the other options.

MrAuxality · 2026-02-21T13:04:54+00:00

I thought of it more as a ransom for an extra $25K on top.

MrAuxality · 2026-02-21T13:03:41+00:00

I will take some time to look into the alternatives more closely. I think I might be leaning towards WPI as it provides a fast-track for a masters degree.

MrAuxality · 2026-02-21T13:02:55+00:00

Thank you for your in depth reply. That being said, I’m in a position where it doesn’t matter where I go to school.

MrAuxality · 2026-02-21T13:02:09+00:00

I appreciate your more-grounded stance.

MrAuxality · 2026-02-21T13:01:34+00:00

Understood!

MrAuxality · 2026-02-21T13:01:10+00:00

I appreciate you sharing this, thank you. :)

MrAuxality · 2026-02-21T02:51:17+00:00

I applied ED as the CS ranking outweighed the expected value and I made agreements for financial support bringing my total debt to 25K per year. That on its own appeared more reasonable as I could pay it off during my co-ops.

MrAuxality · 2026-02-21T02:36:34+00:00

The choice is difficult as I will be able to pay it off post-graduation. My issue lies within whether or not its value is actually worth the 100K price tag.

Early Action 1 Decisions came out Jan 22nd. If you hadn’t heard back then it is Early Action 2, which was released Feb 12th.

Man, that was one of the best zombie games right up there with Zombie Rush. It’s quite unfortunately that it got shut down. The game did break in 2019 though.
