Tufts University

• Graduate School
• Medford, MA
• 4 reviews

Graduate Student: As a graduate student in Tufts University's Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning Department, I am enrolled in the post masters Certificate in Advanced Graduate Studies specializing in Urban Justice and Sustainability. I am able to pursue this program at Tufts in the Boston area even though I am a practicing planner residing and working in Roswell, NM. The faculty in this program are exceptional. The student colleagues are also working professionals with planning and other backgrounds such as law and education. I love this program because we are exposed to literature and ideas from many different fields. The assignments make us think as we attempt to articulate our ideas on a variety of community based social justice and sustainability issues and policies.

Northeastern University

• Graduate School
• Boston, MA
• 25 reviews

Graduate Student: As a graduate student at Northeastern University I had a wonderful time! I met so many new and interesting people from all around the world that I can most certainly call my friends! Professors were always very helpful and tried to explain everything to students in depth! The fact that it has the co-op program, allows students to put into practice everything that they have learned. Therefore, after the completion of any degree, most students have already jobs offers waiting for them.

Boston University

• Graduate School
• Boston, MA
• 19 reviews

Graduate Student: I absolutely love Boston University! I am actually an online student who lives in Seattle, Washington but recently had the chance to visit this Boston University in person this past February! The architecture is beautiful and the location is as well. I would have been attending the School of Social Work which is a separate campus and is right next to a beautiful body of water. Since I do not attend BU in person, I would love to say that my online professors have been more than helpful; they have personally inspired me as well as motivated me. My professors go above and beyond for me, this is why I will always choose Boston University and recommend this school to everyone!

Massachusetts College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences

• Graduate School
• Boston, MA
• 12 reviews

Niche User: Massachusetts College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences has a good education system, but it is very overpriced for dorms and for classes. I am currently a Senior in a high school class of 2020. The dorms are small because I live in Boston for my whole life and I know how MCPHS looks like and the surroundings. Its a good school for people who have above a 85% passion for health science and anything that is related to premedical. If you are willing to go here I hope your parents I willing to help pay off some of that college funding. If your parents can't pay off you maybe in debt.

MGH Institute of Health Professions

• Graduate School
• Boston, MA
• 3 reviews

Graduate Student: My overall outlook on MGH IHP is overwhelming, yet inspiring. When I was accepted to MGH IHP for an Accelerated Bachelor's in Nursing program, to say I was over the moon while excitement would be an understatement. I am able to say I am proud of myself on receiving this acceptance to such a high ranked graduate school. The faculty and student body make you feel at home, comfortable, and confident. Going in I was nervous to say the least, but this community makes you feel as though you are meant to be here and to never second guess it. My only request for something to change would be the cost of tuition. This school is for individuals who already have a bachelor's degree, which means most people are in debt already. This 16 month program I am involved in costing as much as my 4 years at undergraduate is a hard pill to swallow.

Cambridge College

• Graduate School
• Boston, MA
• 5 reviews

Graduate Student: I love the dedication that the professors and my adviser show me. There is an intimate feel, being it is such a small cohort, and the teachers are passionate about what they teach and do in their counseling careers. I like how a lot of the professors graduated from Cambridge College and are teaching there now, while also pursuing their counseling careers. It gives me hope and excitement to be able to be in that same position some day. The financial aid office can sometimes make mistakes and be hard to get a hold of/ mistakes settled. Other than that, I love my experience here so far!

Endicott College

• Graduate School
• Beverly, MA
• 8 reviews

Graduate Student: I loved Endicott's internship program and how they make you go into the real world to test out what kind of work you think you might be interested in. I love the professors and the small classroom sizes. The staff are willing to work closely with you to get the best learning experience and to help you improve in and outside the classroom. My favorite part about going to Endicott would be the small campus atmosphere where you see a lot of familiar faces and can get to know a lot of people on a more personal level than if you went to a big campus.

• North Andover, MA
• 4 reviews

Graduate Student: I would put 3 stars for the entire experience and an extra one for the memories.
Academics: DECENT
I had great professors and not so great ones. But the one’s that were great have helped me throughout my four years and I will never forget them.
Athletics:
Former athlete at Merrimack. They treat them great, some more than others. But overall athletics are supported and there are many oppetunties to see games/matches
Campus Life:
ALRIGHT
Housing is terrible. Get off campus housing when you can! The food sucks too. I never ate at the cafe.
Dorms are small and stupid. Not what you paid for :)
Friends I made were amazing! However I wish there was more diversity!
