Adult students who are applying for entry into New England College's undergraduate bachelor programs may be eligible for the NEC Plus program if they are:
-
at least 25 years of age AND one or more of the following:
-
married, or with legal dependents other than a spouse
-
and have not been enrolled at New England College for the past four years.
All NEC Plus students take courses along with the traditional
undergraduate students at NEC. This discounted program offers courses
at a much lower rate than the regular undergraduate programs at NEC
($369 per credit versus $1,440 per credit). Thus, the NEC Plus Program
offers a full academic year (32 credits) at the cost of $11,808 versus
$30,100 for traditional undergraduates. (NOTE: All fees are based on
2011-12 academic year charges.)
Students admitted to NEC-Plus may take courses during the day or in
the evening (limited), and may attend full- or part-time. There are only
a few restrictions to this program:
1) Regular full-time students are given first priority in course selection.
2) Access to academic advising, support, and tutoring is limited; full-time traditional students are given first priority.
NEC Plus students are eligible for federal and state financial aid
programs, provided they are enrolled at least half-time. The College
does not award institutional scholarships or grants to NEC Plus
students.
Applicants to the NEC Plus program must apply for admission and
supply standard documentation: official transcripts, letter of
recommendation, and personal essay. For further information, contact Valerie Salyer in the
Office of Admission by phone (603) 428-2412 or email
(vsalyer@nec.edu).
