The College's Program Advisors are full-time professionals who can help you select the courses you'll need to earn your degree, maintain an on-going record of your degree progress, and facilitate entry into your classes.

Undergraduate Program Guide
The College regularly publishes a Program Guide that details business Major and Minor requirements, courses offered, College and University policies and procedures, and information about resources available to undergraduates at Northeastern. Your copy of the Program Guide is available from the Program Advising office in CLS-0006, from the Dean's Office in CLS-0041, or click here to download the Program Guide.
Prerequisites for all Business Major and Minor Programs
Prerequisites for all business major and minor programs include completing eight Foundation Courses with a grade point average of 2.5 or higher and a grade of "C' or better in each course, and a minimum 2.0 cumulative grade point average for all course work at NEIU. Before taking courses for your actual major, anyone desiring to have a major in a business program is required to take certain basic classes to give you a basis on which to build your business education. Please see your advisor or the Undergraduate Program Guide for more details.
