In addition to meeting all degree and major requirements, students must earn a minimum of 64 Northeastern semester hours to receive a bachelor’s degree. Established exchange programs, where students are earning two degrees, one from Northeastern and one from another institution, require students to earn a minimum number of Northeastern semester hours as specified by the exchange program. Specialized programs for students with preexisting credentials have specific residency requirements.
