Northeastern built its reputation on co-op: students alternate classroom terms with paid, full-time placements at employers, so most graduate with a year or more of professional experience already on the CV.
The Boston campus sits inside one of the world's densest concentrations of technology, biotech and finance employers, and STEM graduates can use the 36-month OPT extension to stay and work after the degree.
Why students choose it
- Co-op programme places students in paid roles with over 3,000 employers
- Boston location next to major technology, health and finance employers
- STEM-designated degrees qualify for 36 months of OPT work authorisation
- September and January entry for most programmes

When are the intakes at Northeastern University?
Current intakes are September 2026, January 2027. Applying 6 to 12 months ahead gives the widest choice of places and scholarships. Your counsellor confirms exact deadlines for your chosen course.
What does the placement service cost?
A flat SGD 50, billed as two monthly instalments of SGD 25. That covers everything: counselling, university matching, application support and guidance right up to your offer. There are no hidden extras, no agent fees and no commission on your tuition, because our counselling is funded by our university partners, the SGD 50 only covers administration. Separately, you pay the university’s own tuition or semester fees directly to the university after you accept your offer.
What exactly do you help with?
Everything from start to finish: understanding your options, shortlisting the right programme, preparing your application and personal statement, submitting to the university, and guiding you through the offer, enrolment and visa paperwork, all with a dedicated counsellor.
Which universities can you place me into?
We place students into a range of UK and international universities, and we shortlist the best-fit options for your grades, budget and goals rather than pushing a single school. On some pages we run dedicated SGD 50 placement drives for a specific partner university, and we are always adding more partners. Tell us your goals and your counsellor will map out your options.
Do I need my final results before I apply?
No. We work from predicted grades, so you can start the process well before results day and secure a conditional offer. Once your final grades are in, we help you confirm your place.
