Thread: Northeastern

Why don't more people mention Northeastern when they talk about a good MBA program? It is ranked in US News and Report and doesn't require a GMAT. I know it is a little expensive but I have had a good experience with the school up-to-date. The only issue I have with the school is the price. I actually have to take time off because my TA and GI Bill won't cover me to go for the full year.

I am currently in the Air Force and even though my job doesn't have anything to do with the business world would the degree from Northeastern give me the best inside track? I am working on the MBA /MSF program. Thanks for any info.

I think you answered your own question: price.

LOL.. I was just curious if that was the only reason...

I looked at ASU online MBA and that one is $53,000, probably similar to Northeastern in price. I don't think most of the people who attend or have graduated from these programs are on this forum. IMO a Northeastern MBA would look great on anyone's resume. Good luck with the program and I hope you stick with it.

My bad, after reading some more posts I realize there are quite a bit of people on this forum who are attending or have graduated from Northeastern.

If cost was a concern, was there a reason why you picked Northeastern MBA over UMass Amherst MBA other than the GMAT requirement?

And if it is the GMAT requirement, did you consider Colorado State University which is much cheaper also with no GMAT requirement but not ranked as high?

I just got an email from an advisor stating that the Northeastern MBA is $71,000. Ouch!!! No wonder they don't post this on their website. Now I will probably get a phone call every week from a Northeastern salesperson...I mean advisor because of this inquiry.

The main thing I like about Northeastern is the Dual MBA /MSF program they have. I know it is pricey but for a couple more credits I will have a MBA and MSF. I considered Colorado State but I figured a school like Northeastern would look better on a resume because I do not have a lot of experience. I also considered UMass but the course are a little longer and harder with my schedule. I like Northeastern because most of the classes are short in length and works well with my schedule. I am in the military and deploy attend training etc and longer class durations are difficult for me.

I'm not enrolled in the MBA program, but I am about 2/3 through the Master of Science in Criminal Justice Leadership at Northeastern University . I have five classes left. I have nothing but positive things to say about NEU. They definitely have a strong distance learning program. I too like the shorter classes sessions (6 weeks), but there is no shortage in the work required in each class. The MBA probably carries a higher price tag because of the credential itself and how well known it is. The master's that I am completing is about $24,000.00. Not cheap, but still reasonable. NEU has quite a few master level programs that may cost less than the MBA .

	Criminal Justice Degrees Criminal Justice Degrees Police and detectives pursue and apprehend individuals who break the law and then issue citations or give warnings. Most police officers patrol their jurisdictions and investigate any suspicious activity they notice. They also respond to calls from individuals. Detectives, who often are called agents or special agents, perform investigative duties such as gathering facts and collecting evidence. The daily activities of police and detectives vary with their occupational specialty—such as police officer, game warden, or detective—and whether they are working for a local, State, or Federal agency. Duties also differ substantially among various Federal agencies, which enforce different aspects of the law. Regardless of job duties or location, police officers and detectives at all levels must write reports and maintain meticulous records that will be needed if they testify in court. Parole officers perform many of the same duties that probation officers perform. The difference is that parole officers supervise offenders who have been released from prison, whereas probation officers work with those who are sentenced to probation instead of prison. Pretrial services officers conduct pretrial investigations, the findings of which help determine whether suspects should be released before their trial. In most jurisdictions, probation is a county function and parole is a State function. •Job opportunities are expected to be excellent. •Employment growth, which is projected to be faster-than-average, is dependent on government funding. •For parole or probation officers, a bachelor's degree in social work, criminal justice, psychology, or a related field is usually required.

Thanks for all the info, good for me and all others who are considering attending Northeastern. I've been looking at their Masters in Leadership too and their price is right around $24 grand also. For some reason, I thought their MBA was going to be about $50 grand so I was a little taken aback when I got the email but it is a solid program with good name recognition. Good luck to both of you and let us know your progress.

Northeastern's changed a lot since I completed my undergrad there. This stated, here's my opinion..

You can do better for less. Northeastern is the runt of the litter as far as Boston schools are concerned.

I might not agree that Northeastern is the runt of the Boston litter but I will say that you can do just as well for less.
