Transferring In? We Make It Easy!

Have you tried another college but had trouble making it work, whether socially, financially, or academically? Close to one-third of our students who enrolled at Northern Essex in the fall of 2020 had credits from another college on their transcripts and found success here. We welcome you to join them and get your education back on track!
