Guidance Counselor Events
Learn more about Northeastern through a variety of special programs and events for counselors.
Counselor Weekend
Since 2003, Northeastern has sponsored programs where counselors from all over the country come to Boston to learn more about the University. Counselor Weekend, which took place from June 7-10, included 18 counselors from a wide variety of states, including California, Colorado, Hawaii, and Arizona. Counselors visited campus to learn more about all the University and city of Boston has to offer, and were treated to a special reception at the President’s residence on Beacon Hill. If you would like to learn more about Northeastern and our focus on experiential learning, we invite you to nominate yourself or a colleague to attend next year’s Counselor Weekend. This event is by invitation only. Please contact us at admissions@neu.edu or call 617.373.2200 and ask to speak with the Admissions representative in your area.
Boston Guidance Counselor Breakfast
Northeastern is committed to our urban community and we enjoy a strong partnership with the Boston Public High schools. We are pleased to be hosting Boston Public High School Guidance Counselors October 3. They will have the opportunity to meet with the Dean of Admissions and New Student & Family Services to learn more about Northeastern’s changing profile as well as the admission process. In addition, counselors will enjoy a student panel discussion and a campus tour.
