Undergraduate Admissions

NECBīs open admissions policy allows anyone with a high school diploma or GED the opportunity to enroll. We accept applications for our Associate in Science in Business Administration (ASBA) and Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BSBA).

The following items must be completed at the time of application:

  • Application for Admission
  • High school transcripts or proof of GED
  • Student Financial Agreement or financial loan documentation if student is seeking alternative funding
  • Payment of $50 application fee (one-time, non-refundable) and $50 annual e-resources fee
  • Enrollment Agreement

NECB wants to help you succeed and benefit from the very beginning of your academic experience. If you have never attended NECB before, you will be given an English and Math diagnostic exam prior to enrolling in any course. If you pass the exams, you can enroll in any of NECB's courses. If you do not pass either test, your first courses will be Basic Math and/or Development English.

You are exempt from taking the diagnostic tests if you have an Associate, Bachelor, Master or Doctorate degree. You are also exempt if you have 24 or more college credits.

NECB offers several financing options to help students cover the costs of their education. In addition, NECB will work with companies to set up a direct billing arrangement which simplifies tuition processing for the company while allowing qualified employees to attend college without needing to pay tuition up-front.

NECB offers courses 6 terms per year with evening and online classes to fit almost every schedule. Whether you are looking for traditional classes or an online degree in Business Administration, NECB makes it possible for almost everyone to enjoy the benefits of college education.
