Guidance Counselors
As a guidance counselor or college advisor, you work hard to educate, encourage, and support your students as they prepare for their futures in college. To make it easier for you, we've organized all of the important information about Northeastern's application process in one section. But don't forget to visit the rest of the admissions site for more detailed information on academics, co-op program, costs and financial aid information, and campus life.
We also want to encourage you to take advantage of the special programs and opportunities we have for guidance counselors to learn more about Northeastern. We host a variety of events including Weekend Fly-Ins, Counselor Breakfasts, and individual meetings. Contact us to learn more.
If you don't find what you are looking for, please contact us at (617) 373-2200.
Our staff is available to answer questions and assist with the application process throughout the year. You can contact the admissions officer assigned to your high school's territory or call our office at (617) 373-2200 to speak with a member of our management team.

Required Materials and Forms
Northeastern only accepts the Common Application and required NU Supplement. Our Admissions Office confirms all submitted applications and NU Supplements through an acknowledgement letter sent to the applicant's home address and an e-mail, which provides information on how they can check their application status on-line. If your student does not receive an application acknowledgement letter and e-mail within two weeks of online submission, please have them contact our office at admissions@neu.edu.
The Common Application now has an exciting new feature which allows school officials to submit secondary school reports and recommendations online. Visit the Common Application website for instructions or call us at 617-373-2200.
Applicants can check the status of their application to learn about any missing information through our Applicant Status Check. Additionally, applicants are sent periodic reminders to check the status of their application prior to the deadline.
