Northeastern University operates on a semester system with intakes in Fall (September), Spring (January), and Summer (May). Application deadlines vary by program and level of study. For undergraduate programs, Early Decision I is typically November 1, Early Decision II and Early Action are January 1, and Regular Decision falls on January 1. Graduate programs often have rolling deadlines but commonly prioritize Fall intake with deadlines ranging from December to April.
Prospective students should verify specific deadlines for their chosen program on Northeastern’s official website, as some departments may have unique requirements or earlier cutoff dates for scholarships or assistantships.
