Alumni

Comments from Our Fall, 2006 Alumni Survey

During the fall of 2006, we conducted an anonymous survey with our alumni. The comments below are direct quotes from this survey.

"Northeastern's program did a wonderful job at educating me on the most up-to-date research and cutting edge areas of our field. They have good relationships with local schools for practicum and internship students. Their reputation for producing great school psychologists allows students to have a competitive edge when applying for jobs ."

" Easy-to-approach faculty who are understanding and helpful; ample opportunities for collaboration with classmates; many real-life assignments that allow for application of skills."

"Among NU's many strengths are their strong student faculty relationships and effective use of the ecological model. All faculty were very knowledgeable and effective teachers who supported students both in and out of the classroom."

"There were a number of opportunities to become involved in a wide range of activities including research options and leadership roles within campus organizations."

"Classes are designed well and faculty are extremely dedicated and supportive."

"The program is constantly on a "going forward" momentum and continuously seeks to improve itself and I think that is fabulous."

"I loved the small, close knit community that I felt with my classmates and faculty during my time in Boston. As an out of state student it was so nice to feel welcomed into 'big city life.' In addition to the fantastic education that I received at NU, I made friends with whom I am still in contact ."
