How do people view NORTHEASTERN? Forum

Is it a shit school if you don't want to do public interest law?

[SFrost]

I would guess the same as any other lower ranked school. A brief look at their employment statistics and tuition suggest the school is ineffective at placing graduates and very overpriced.

The PI things seem gimicky. Do you know of any evidence that they actually place in the specific job category you want?

northeastern?

[cron1834]

21% PI score, but 42% employed overall!! Their ratio of cost to job placement has to be bottom-14.

We should calculate a B14, btw.

Their hockey team sucks.

Good idea. Cooley would be near the top of that rankings list too!

Their UG campus is top notch. But if you're from the area and have to attend LS, you're better off with UMass LS, for instance, over Northeastern. That placement is just awful considering how expensive it is there.

You're definitely not better with UMass Law, Suffolk probably for $ reasons.

Possibly. But if the odds are you're not getting a job anyway, you might as well go into no debt for it with cheap living expenses at UMass (presuming UMass is giving out tuition $$$).

UMass has had a law school for what...3 years?

UMass has been poorly run recently. Hard to say which was a worse idea, a D1 football team that plays in Foxborough or buying a failing law school in Dartmouth right before the legal/law school market collapse. I would have thought all the BC and Suffolk grads in the legislature would have kiboshed the numbskull law school idea, but alas.

Likely the question that most people get when they say they went to law school at Northeastern.

Samford Law School grads get a similar lay bonus.
