City Life

When you make Northeastern your home, you’re living and learning in the heart of Boston—the quintessential college town.
Here’s just a sampling of what you can look forward to by joining the Northeastern family.
Social
Not only will you grow close to your fellow Huskies, but with more than 250,000 students at more than 30 other colleges and universities in the area, filling up your social calendar will be a cinch.
Professional
From banks to hospitals, law firms to media companies, nonprofits to start-ups, Boston is a terrific place to start a career. In fact, 79% of Northeastern students co-op within Massachusetts—and 60% of students receive a job offer after graduation from a previous co-op employer.
Cultural
With its rich history and diverse mix of neighborhoods, Beantown features tons of top-notch museums, shops, restaurants, theaters, and sporting venues—and many provide great student deals and discounts.
Recreational
Whether you’re pitching in for one of hundreds of Northeastern community service opportunities, tossing a Frisbee in the Fens, or rowing along the scenic Charles River, your options for off-campus activities are nearly endless.
