Welcome to New York City Scholars

“The opportunity to live in both NYC and Boston during my college experience was something I couldn’t pass up, and I’m so glad I chose Northeastern to make it possible. As a content creator, being on this campus has opened incredible opportunities for me, including attending exclusive events and working with brands like Disney+ and Lancome. As a student on the pre-law track, I’ve also been able to pursue a full time policy internship in the city. Through Northeastern, opportunities like visiting the New York Stock Exchange, networking at the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York, and learning from NBCUniversal professionals have made this experience truly unforgettable!”

“Attending the NYC Scholars program was one of the best ways for me to start my college experience at Northeastern. Being a New York native, I thought I had already explored everything the city could offer. But through opportunities like E-treks and Intersections I was able to gain access to and make connections in the corporate world of NYC. On top of that, being introduced to a small cohort of students and a great group of SSCs let me form lasting friendships and feel supported throughout my time in the program. Being a part of the debut of the NYC Scholars was really special, and I can't wait to see how the program grows and flourishes.”

“Being part of Northeastern's New York City campus as a first year has been an experience unlike anything I expected. In just one year, I've networked with industry professionals, grown in ways I didn't anticipate, and found my people. There truly is nothing like utilizing the city itself as an extension of the classroom. The opportunities have felt intentional, the connections have felt real, and I couldn't imagine a better place to start.”

“NYC Scholars has truly given me the opportunity to embrace everything the city has to offer. Being located in Midtown has opened so many doors for me like having easy access to Central Park and the subway. E-Treks have been another highlight for me as I’ve been able to visit companies across the city, hear from industry professionals, and build real connections. EdOdyssey excursions are also a great way for us to connect on a deeper level with the city. Being here hasn't just shaped me academically, it's pushed me to take full advantage of everything New York has to offer, and I’ve become more adaptable, adventurous, and curious because of it”
