Getting Started

From exploring the best matched universities for your major to finding a specific course you need, learn how to start preparing.

Ensure you are taking courses that will transfer back to Northeastern University and count toward your degree.

You must maintain full-time status at Northeastern University while abroad and full-time status at the host institution. The course load for each study abroad program may vary depending on the program. Please check the credit conversion and full-time status of your host institution.
