Financing Global Enrollment Opportunities

During the fall semester of The N.U.in Program, students who apply for financial aid are considered for need-based Northeastern funding only. All other aid opportunities, including federal and state grants, loans, and work-study funds can be used beginning with the spring semester for those who qualify.

London Scholars will not be eligible for federal or state aid during the first year of their program. Upon successful completion of the program, London Scholars will transition to the Boston campus for the fall semester of their second year, and eligible students can apply for federal or state aid.

NYC Scholars will not be eligible for federal or state aid during the first year of their program. Upon successful completion of the program, NYC Scholars will transition to the Boston campus for the fall semester of their second year, and eligible students can apply for federal or state aid.

Billing statements for the fall semester of The N.U.in Program will be available in July. Once available, the billing statement will be posted to the Student Hub and an email notification will be sent to the student at their Northeastern email address.

Billing statements are generated per semester and reflect the student’s account at that point in time. Students may view their account live at any time through the Student Hub.

Each student’s cost of attendance will vary based on the difference in the cost of living expenses across locations and in part due to the wants and needs of each student. For Cost of Attendance information for the NU.i.n, NYC Scholars, and London Scholars Programs, please refer to the Tuition and Fees page.

• Log into your Student Hub
• Choose “Resources”
• Navigate to the “Financial Services” section
• Select “Make a Payment with an eCheck”

We are able to accept payment by check under the following conditions:

• Choose “Resources”
• Navigate to the “Financial Services” section
• Select “Make an International Payment with Flywire” or “Make a credit card or international payment with CIBC”

Northeastern University offers monthly payment plans, which are administered through Flywire.

The monthly payment plan allows you to divide your educational costs into smaller, more manageable, installments. In using this plan, it can reduce your need to borrow, thereby, reducing the overall cost of education and can be combined with your financial aid award or other financing options. Because the payment plan is not a loan, you do not have to pay interest, only an enrollment fee of $45 per term.

To learn about the available payment plans, dates, deadlines, and enrollment information, please refer the Billing and Payments page of the SFS website.

Additional information regarding payment plan options can be found in the Payment Plan FAQ’s.

Several private lenders offer funding options for pre-matriculation programs. Northeastern does not prefer, recommend, promote, endorse, or suggest any of these lenders, and it is important to verify that a lender’s terms and conditions apply to your program. Be sure to ask the lender directly if they offer loans for the NU.i.n, NYC Scholars, or London Scholars programs.

For students in the NU.i.n program, additional private lending resources may be available beginning with the spring semester of their first year.

For students in the London Scholars or NYC Scholars, additional private lending resources may be available beginning with the fall semester of their second year.

To help facilitate your private loan search, Northeastern has partnered with ELM Select. Using the ELM Select tool, you can compare private loans from multiple lenders. Based on your search criteria, ELM Select will display a neutral list (in random order) of private lenders that Northeastern students have borrowed from within the past three years. You are not required to use any of the lenders listed on ELM Select. Northeastern will process loans from any eligible lender the student chooses. Northeastern may not deny or otherwise impede the borrower’s choice of a lender or cause unnecessary delay in loan certification for those borrowers who choose a lender not listed on ELM Select. Northeastern does not prefer, recommend, promote, endorse, or suggest any of these lenders.

Education loans vary by lender. You should compare loan terms and conditions and choose the one that best fits your situation.

We recommend that students apply for a private loan with a co-signer. A co-signer assumes responsibility for a loan should the borrower fail to repay. Having a co-signer on the loan often results in a lower interest rate and reduced fees.

The following are some questions that you may want to ask your lender or consider when choosing a lender/loan option:
