NEU Co-op Program
Does anyone know how Northeastern's Co-op works? A friend told me to get into Blackstone and Morgan Stanley was easy, and some sophomore girl landed a co-op at Blackstone. I'm just wondering why Blackstone would take a sophomore girl from Northeastern (no offense). Just wondering why BBs and PE firms do that(again, no offense)
While Northeastern’s co-op program is great and does place some students into BB/MM banks each year, this statement is very misleading.
The blackstone co-ops that are mentioned above have been for tax/sec reporting, nothing special. Definitely not PE. Morgan Stanley does send 2 students each semester for IBD in NYC, so they are right about that. But again, 2 students each semester isn’t much.
Northeastern does a great job of creating a pipeline for roughly ~20 people each semester to get into banking and gain experience. Roughly 8 of those make up BB/MM, rest are boutique. These are really helpful to eventually recruit for SA/FT and there is decent placement each year, but I would still classify it as a non-target or semi-non-target (if that’s even a thing?).
Northeastern is a great option for getting real world experience and getting a leg up over other students, and if you play your cards right you can get some really solid jobs. But target schools still generally win out. Hope this helps clarify that.
