Northeastern University Electrical Engineering

Some questions about Northeastern University?
I have about 8 days to decide which college i want to go to next fall. I’ve pretty much narrowed it down to Umass Amherst and Northeastern. WPI is also a possibility but if I’m going to spend that much money anyway I’d just go to NE.
I was just wondering if the college credits for the classes at NE are the same traditional 3 credit courses.
I would also like to know if co-ops are require for an electrical engineering major.
One last question – Does NE have a 5 (or 6 with co-op) year program for a master’s degree?
Also if you have any first hand experience with one or ideally both schools i would love to hear what you think.
if it is engineering I would say WPI. NE should be good too, why don’t you check the princeton review?
