About the Webinar

Webinar Key Takeaways:

 

  • NEIU is a small public university of about 7,000 students, with small class sizes and half of our classes are under 20 students - so faculty know you and care about you.  
  • As a public university we have reasonable tuition rates.
  • NEIU has a 67 acre campus located in a quiet safe residential neighborhood on the north side of Chicago, accessible to downtown by train. Chicago is the 3rd largest city in the USA so great place to find internships and work opportunities.
  • NEIU is ranked No. 1  in social mobility (which means the highest increase in lifetime earnings of NEIU graduates as compared to the life time earnings of their parents).
  • OIP runs a buddy program which will pair you up with a US student who will begin to email with you before you arrive and help you to settle in.
