Eligible graduates of participating high schools must enroll full-time in an eligible on-campus undergraduate program. Tuition is $12,000 per year ($6,000 per semester), plus required fees. Room and board are additional for students who live on campus. The tuition guarantee applies to incoming students for up to four years and excludes NEC’s Bachelor of Science in Nursing programs.

“We believe that access to higher education can open doors and create opportunities that last a lifetime,” said Dr. Wayne F. Lesperance, Jr., President of New England College. “Expanding our high school partnerships allows us to reach more students, strengthen our connections with local communities and help make a college education an attainable goal for more New Hampshire families.”

With 23 additional high schools joining NEC’s High School Partnership program, more New Hampshire students can benefit from a reduced tuition rate and greater certainty about the cost of earning their degree.
