Support for Global Scholars and London Scholars | Explore Program for Undeclared Students

Joining the London Scholars or Global Scholars Program? Here’s how the Explore Program will aid you in your year away from campus.

The Global Scholars Program is a guided two-semester study away from campus. For the 2024-2025 academic year, NU Bound students will study either in London, England or in Oakland, both locations are part of Northeastern’s global university system. Learn more about what it means to be in the Global Scholars Program by checking out the Global Scholars page on Northeastern’s website.

London Scholars spend two semesters in London, preparing to transition to the Boston campus for the fall of 2025.

Explore Program Advising

Explore Program students in the Global and London Scholars programs have access to their advisor even before embarking on their first-year journey. In the late spring and summer you will work together with your on-site Explore advisor to identify courses that align with your strongest major interests so that you can jumpstart your exploration in your first semester.

Your Explore Program advisor will not only help guide you in your major exploration, but they will also assist you with any questions or concerns that come up along the way, whether or not related to academics. Explore advising is holistic, which means that we care about you as an individual and we understand that there are many factors that impact your experience as a Northeastern student. You can meet with your on-site Explore advisor as often as you would like.

Explore Program Mentors

Explore Program students in the Global Scholars and the London Scholars programs will be assigned a mentor who will connect with them virtually throughout their time away from campus. Global and London Scholars mentors are former Explore Program students who will help guide you through your academic exploration and provide opportunities for you to reflect on your first-year experiences.

Your mentor will introduce you to advising and registration tools available on the Boston campus and will help you prepare for your transition to Northeastern for your second year, both academically and socially.
