CONGRATULATIONS

CLASS OF 2026 Welcome to NU Bound! The Global Experience Office is thrilled that you are joining this engaging yearlong program designed for you to experience Northeastern’s global university system. We can’t wait to connect with you and support you as you launch your college career. There are countless experiences and opportunities that a Northeastern education has to offer. You will have amazing options to choose from during your time here—courses, clubs, travels, career paths; your choices are limitless. As a member of the NU Bound program, you will take advantage of Northeastern’s global system from the very beginning of your college experience. The Northeastern global network is best described as access and support from the Northeastern community spread out across the world through our staff, faculty, alumni, employer partners, and global campuses. Kicking off your studies at one of these global campuses puts you ahead of the game. You will experience two distinct Northeastern campuses in your first two years of college, and your familiarity with how to tap into our network will already be established. Through this program, you will experience the power of place at a Northeastern University campus. You’ll have the distinctive opportunity to build connections with your cohort of NU Bound students, as well as with our tight-knit community of students, alumni, and community members near your program location. We look forward to being a part of your journey. Sincerely, The Global Experience Office
