Northeastern University Class of 2024 Acceptance Rate

Does anyone know the acceptance rate and statistics for Northeastern’s Class of 2024?

Based on the number of applicants compared to last year it will likely be 16-18% but could be higher due to COVID-19 concerns, though not likely more than 20%. Last year was 18% for reference.

Any idea of the breakdown for EA, ED, etc ?

@RonaldP66 A few months ago data was released that showed ED acceptances in the 40-45% range.

The only reference I have found online is from College KickStart, which listed Northeastern’s 2024 stats as Admitted: 12,160 out of 64,000. The number of applicants seemed too rounded, but that’s an acceptance rate of 19%.

Last year’s college kickstart numbers were a little under 100 admitted students off so it’s more than rounding. The year before that they were 300 accepted students off. Not sure where that number would be coming from as its both generally within the expected possible range but historically off for Northeastern.

Hi! I’m an undergrad student who also working for undergraduate admissions so I get some of this info first hand. Our ED rates are about 20% acceptance, so the majority of our students come in through EA and RD. That being said, the majority of EA students get deferred to RD since the EA pool has actually been bigger than the RD pool
