    It is one of the most affordable schools in Illinois. The education is quality and it is possible for anyone who thinks they won't be able to educate themselves because of financial difficulties. It is possible!

    For its affordability, Northeastern offers what you would expect: a campus where you can explore your major and get your degree without excessive frills. The draw of the campus is in its affordability and the staff who I think are rather excellent.

    It's rated top 5 in best for your buck on some fancy college list. I just remember it's number five on the list right after Harvard. You'll get a great education without having to pay back loans for the rest of your life.
