Don't know whether this is northeast enough for your student, but for
choice and quality Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio is a
good choice.  Strong engineering and strong science, but the Western
Reserve part has strong social sciences and humanities.

Another good one is a little more east:  Carnegie Mellon Univ.  again
strong engineering, strong science along with strong humanities and social
science.

Both cities Cleveland and Pittsburgh no longer deserve the reputation of
dirty industrial towns which they earned before the end of the 60's.  Both
cities are very clean and have much to offer.
