Undergraduate applicants are encourage to visit the University's admissions website . Students should be aware that Northeastern DOES NOT require a portfolio as part of the application, and that one should not be submitted. This is because many high schools do not have high quality graphic education programs in either art or architecture, and therefore using access to such unreliable resources as the basis admission seems to us unfair. Instead, we ask our central admissions office to get us the best academically qualified students, and then we take the responsibility for training them in our excellent foundation program.
