Northeastern Satellite Campuses?
Hi all,
I’m interested in studying finance but I don’t know if the Northeastern campus in NYC is considered the same way the Boston campus is. Ik it automatically enrolled everyone who was at Marymount Manhattan College but idk if it’s actually the same as the main campus in Boston, esp. for finance/real estate. Any advice is appreciated
Based on the most helpful WSO content, Northeastern's main Boston campus is generally regarded as the flagship for its business programs, particularly for finance. The Boston campus is well-known for its co-op program, which provides students with significant real-world experience at firms like Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and other top-tier companies. This program is a major draw for students aiming to break into competitive fields like finance and real estate.
There isn't specific information in the WSO dataset about how the NYC satellite campus compares to the Boston campus for finance or real estate. However, it's worth noting that satellite campuses often don't carry the same reputation or resources as the main campus, especially when it comes to networking opportunities, alumni presence, and access to established co-op partnerships.
If you're aiming for a career in finance or real estate, the Boston campus would likely provide stronger opportunities and a more robust platform for success. If you're considering the NYC campus, it might be worth reaching out to current students or alumni to understand the specific resources and opportunities available there.

Would the entirety of your undergrad career be at a satellite? People like to make jokes about the satellite campuses across the internet and I imagine in people in hiring capacities do as well. If it's only a semester/year then it likely isn't a big deal but if its all 4 years it would probably take the degree down a peg imo.
Yeah it would be for my entire undergrad career. Northeastern said that the transcripts and diplomas all say the same thing but idk if that means anything for real estate/finance recruiting
I'm not sure it would mean too much as long as you still get access to all the resources and class offerings that a student in Boston would get. As long as you can apply to whatever co-ops and take whatever classes I imagine it wouldn't matter too much. If it all looks the same and you can talk about it the same way in interviews and such, i dont think it would be bad. Not too sure what it looks like at that campus though.
All four years? Basically like not going to northeastern at that point.
Yeah it would be for all 4 years
You've probably already made your decision, but I really wouldn't choose Northeastern if I was spending all 4 years at a non-Boston campus. You'll miss out on all of the big clubs like SVF, TAMID, PEVC that actively help people land co-ops and better internships. Additionally, I don't think the professors are comparable to Boston. I spent my first semester at a satellite campus, and there was a huge bump in quality once I arrived in Boston.
Wait you mean the clubs for finance/real estate don’t have a presence in the NYC campus? My whole reasoning was to start my career in the area with Northeastern’s resources
