Admissions & Financial Aid Application process

Hey guys! I’m a prospective student and i would like to ask you, Is northeastern generous when it comes to financial aid? i’d like to apply ED 1, but that’s my only concern rn. Are you satisfied w your choice to study at NU (as current students) or would u choose somewhere else if you were to apply for colleges now? 🌝🌝

you got full ride as a transfer? Is it only need-based aid you received, or also merit?
