We’re hard at work getting the website ready with locations for fall 2021—stay tuned for the announcement in early February.
What is The N.U.in Program?
Northeastern University’s signature first-year global experience, the N.U.in Program embodies Northeastern’s experiential approach to education. Launched in 2007, the N.U.in Program is rooted in our core belief that Northeastern students should be curious, adaptable, and agile as they explore the world around them.
Through the N.U.in Program, students will have a rigorous academic experience intertwined with unique cultural and social opportunities outside of the classroom. Coupled with a robust support system, this experience will support students’ growth as global citizens and fine-tune the skills they need to navigate their future.
Students admitted to the N.U.in Program embark on a unique first year internationally or in Boston. You will choose a location based on your major, age eligibility, and program capacity. If an international location is not able to operate given the global travel situation, you will have the opportunity to participate in an alternative program experience during the fall.
Your first semester credits will be applied toward your degree program, and you will start the spring semester with your fellow N.U.in alumni—more adventurous, more intellectually curious, and ready to jump into the next adventure. You will have the support of the larger Northeastern community, including a network of faculty, staff, advisors, and peers ready to support you.

We are excited to support you and your family as you explore the incredible opportunities offered through the N.U.in Program and the university as a whole. Information will continue to be shared with you over the coming months. In the meantime, we encourage you to:

Curious about costs and payment information?
Cost: The cost for all N.U.in Program locations for fall 2020 was $35,995 (USD).

Tuition, housing, dedicated 24/7 support staff, group flight fare and coordination, pre-departure orientation, on-site orientation, group excursions, N.U.in-organized activities, and other site-specific activities.
Financial Aid:
While enrolled in the N.U.in Program, students who file for financial aid are considered for need-based Northeastern funding only. Grants, loans, and work awards from federal and state sources cannot be applied to the fall semester. Students who qualify can use these financial options beginning in the spring semester.
The Office of Student Financial Services prides itself on offering expert advice, friendly service, and personalized support. Northeastern offers more than $305 million in grant and scholarship assistance, participates in all federal aid programs, and offers information on alternative financing and the Northeastern Payment Plan.
