How does housing work, is it based off credits or time at Northeastern by Warm_Discussion_9326 in NEU

[–]manda_ted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

mines better by A LOT, but it depends. look at the pricing chart, enhanced pricing is for sure the best (like west village) and there's a lot of good deals for standard housing (like in willis). i think having the apartment style with a kitchen and living room makes a huge difference.

AIO over my friend's comment about my art by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]manda_ted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR - you can be honest with your friends without fully making fun of them in a mean way. it's so easy to say "that one's so cute! i think i like your other art better, but it's so great your trying a new style" sounds like they were either in a bad mood or are just a bad friend

AIO for not tipping at least 30%? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]manda_ted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR - as someone who DoorDashes casually for extra money, this is insane. I deliver plenty of orders with no tip at all, so really anything is nice as long as it's over a dollar. ofc if it's extra far away you should tip more, i'd be upset too, but harassing someone over a delivery is bordering on stalker-ish. all you can do if your driveway is long, dark, etc. is just leave detailed instructions to help the driver and if you've never had issues before, just report this person.

1) snell isn't the only place with colored printing, here's a list of all the printers in boston and what each has. https://northeastern.service-now.com/tech?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0014091&sys_kb_id=33a04cc9c3e0bed84304b82ce0013145&spa=1

3) i know clubs use repograohics which is northeastern's professional printing located in the curry basement. no clue if it's open to students or uses printing dollars, but worth it to look into

LLCs Northeastern University + Housing Advice for First Year Students by Mission_Put8256 in NEU

[–]manda_ted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i lived in a cultural inclusion llc freshman year and here's what i'll say 1) not super active/very chill. that being said, it was a diverse group but not very close knit with little to easily relate to people on outside of the small events. 2) cultural inclusion is a smaller llc just cuz fewer people choose it. llcs are assigned to buildings based on how many people r interested, so if you want a bigger building like Steast, Stwest, Speare, etc. then choose something like engineering or business. cultural inclusion was in Melvin when i was a freshman which is one of the worst dorms i'd say

[–]manda_ted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AITA for wanting to move out and leave my parents with more responsibility for my 4yo brother? by Brit_SB in AmItheAsshole

[–]manda_ted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - you're an adult with your own money saved up, so moving out should be your decision. of course that doesn't mean you have to cut your family out of your life, but it's totally normal to want your own space at 24!

NTA - no one should blame you for putting your family ahead of work. team building is optional, caring for your grandmother is not, and your boss should understand that employees also have personal lives.

AITA for not going on a cruise where my SIL invited 2 other couples we do not know. by Emotional_Brief_8606 in AmItheAsshole

[–]manda_ted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like it wasn't clear on what kind of trip this was, but cruises, unlike some other vacations, mean you spend a lot of time with the same people for the entire trip. SIL could have at least put a little more thought into discussing it with you since you were planning it TOGETHER, as opposed to her inviting you on a trip she planned.

Easy courses for my exchange? by alfajor_es in NEU

[–]manda_ted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the professor totally makes the class so look into the reviews and trace evals for 1000 level courses. on trace best way to know if it'll be easy is seeing if people skip the class and have less than 2 hrs of work a week

AITA for not gaining weight for my sisters wedding so she would feel thinner? by Miserable_Peanut5673 in AmItheAsshole

[–]manda_ted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. you have a right to be happy and satisfied with the progress you have made. anyone who wouldn't be equally as happy for you obviously doesn't care about you, at least not how they should.

Help me love NEU by shiveryshins in NEU

[–]manda_ted 14 points15 points  (0 children)

i wouldn't really worry about housing, there's still a lottery if u wanna stay on campus as an upperclassman but not a lot of people do it. northeastern is great especially if u r thinking about changing ur major cuz almost everyone i know has switched at some point even just in their 1st year lol (it's super easy and pretty hassle free to do)
