Family Portal

The myNortheastern Family/Other Account provides families with the ability to:

Understanding FERPA

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) limits universities and colleges on what can be shared with families in regard to your student, without the student’s clear knowledge and expressed permission to share with others.

When will Northeastern University be open?

Northeastern community members said they look forward to in-person classes and other activities following Northeastern Provost David Madigan’s announcement that campus will be fully open in the fall of 2021.

Is Northeastern University offering in person tours?

In-person campus tours have been ‘hard to find.’. But not at Northeastern. Northeastern has been giving in-person tours of its Boston campus since early August 2020. Health and safety protocols have resulted in smaller groups and personalized visits—an experience few U.S. universities have been offering.

Direct Payments to the University

E-check payments may be made via NUPay, available on the Northeastern University Student Hub portal. To make an e-check payment:

529 Plans

Students and families using 529 plans to cover educational costs should reach out to their 529 provider to initiate the process of withdrawing funds.

Payment Plan

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

International Payments

Northeastern University has partnered with Flywire to streamline the international wire payment process to the university. This service provides students and their families a safe, cost effective, and convenient method of making payments to Northeastern University in foreign currencies.

External Scholarships

If you are a financial aid applicant and have received an outside scholarship, you must notify our office, via email at sfs@northeastern.edu. Deduct the amount of the scholarship from your balance due and make payment accordingly. If you have a scholarship payment, please forward it to the address below.

Tuition Paid by Employers or Other Third Party

In those situations where the tuition is paid directly to the university by a third party, the student must provide the Office of Student Accounts with a purchase order or a written statement of intent to pay by the third party no later than the end of the first week of classes.

Tuition Reimbursement

Many companies, embassies and agencies directly reimburse students for their educational expenses upon successful completion of courses. In these situations, the student is responsible for paying the bill at the beginning of the term or selecting another payment option. Tuition may not be left unpaid pending reimbursement by a third party.
