Suffolk University's urban setting and opportunities are pretty appealing to me – the whole city-as-a-classroom thing is a big draw. I'm trying to find other colleges that offer a similar vibe in an urban setting with good connections to internships and jobs. Thoughts?
Absolutely, it’s great to hear that you’re excited about the prospect of an urban campus! If you’re interested in universities with a strong urban setting like Suffolk, you might want to check out schools like Boston University and Northeastern, which are also in Boston and have robust co-op and internship programs. If you're looking beyond Boston, consider looking into schools like New York University or Columbia in New York City, which offer immense urban opportunities and a plethora of connections in various industries. DePaul University in Chicago is another one to consider, with strong ties to the city’s diverse job market. Remember, when searching for schools with urban opportunities, take a look at their career services and co-op programs to get a sense of how well they're integrated with the local business community. It’s always worth reaching out to current students or alumni to hear firsthand about their internship experiences and how the city’s environment has contributed to their studies and career development. Good luck with your search!
