Review of Northeastern Illinois University

from Chicago, IL

Describe your college in three sentences.

Northeastern has a very comfortable environment. Teachers that you don't even have will ask you about your day and classes, they'll even offer any help that you would need. As well with the students, everyone is very talkative and welcoming.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Don't be afraid to ask for help! Especially for little things like directions, everyone is very kind and will stop to help.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

I feel that the teachers I had at Northeastern were very fair in the grading. They always remind the class when homework, exams/tests/quizzes, and papers were going to be due. They provided help/tutoring. They we're very exact about what they wanted out of the class's work too. They were understanding about late work or if personal problems conflicted with class attendance, if warned ahead of time via e-mail or told at a previous class.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

There are no dorms.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Northeastern's Subway, Mexican food stand, and Salad Bar have really great food. The Asian food stand is no Panda Express but it's okay. To buy lunch everyday can get costly with the lowest price at every stand being between 5-6 dollars for a good filling meal. The lunch room is very well kept and there's always seating.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

The P.E complex always has great activities going on year round. So if you want a good fun work out, check the scheduled events there.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

During the warmer months, there are always little events held by students in clubs looking to gain members.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Northeastern has a texting and e-mail service to let students know everything from harsh weather conditions or crimes that may have happened in the area. You sign up through the school provided e-mail system.
