What to Bring
How are the rooms furnished?
Northeastern University, like most other colleges and universities, provides each intern with a bed, desk, chair, dresser, and window shade. This is true whether you are living in a standard single, double or enhanced single, double housing accommodation. Some double rooms have only one closet to share with your roommate.
While the summer season is shorter than a traditional semester, we offer suggestions of what you may wish to bring to campus for your summer stay with us.
