Northwestern is very close to Chicago and has a beautiful campus. The people are amazing and the facilities are top notch. Evanston was a little sleepy at times but I always look forward to tailgates and nights in the local bars/restaurants!
This is really a great school. Finished my degree without any issues. I received so much support, care and understanding from every administration staff, lecturers, professors, e.t.c. I would really recommend this school to anyone.
I'm not happy with the online program for working adults, particularly the IDS program. There are far too many group projects that span the entire course, which has made it difficult to build a meaningful portfolio or clearly demonstrate my individual skills. I don't feel like I'm learning much that's actually helpful for a career switch. Support services at NU have also been disappointing. They seem to lack understanding of conditions like ASD and CPTSD, and overall student competency in the program has been lower than expected. Some instructors are great, but others are not, and at least one was extremely difficult to work with. Maybe the on-campus experience is better, but I'd advise others to carefully consider whether the online IDS program is the right fit, especially if you're looking to develop individual skills or career-ready work.
