International Students in Colombia

New England College of Business and Finance (NECB), in partnership with Politécnico Grancolombiano (PG), will offer multiple degree programs and make them more affordable for international students in Colombia, including the new high-value undergraduate dual enrollment program. The dual enrollment is a new and exciting option for our international students. By enrolling in the program, a student will only need to complete roughly ten courses from New England College of Business (all online) in order to obtain a bachelor's degree from the accredited U.S. institution. Approved coursework from Politécnico Grancolombiano will be accepted by NECB, which allows prospective students to complete both degrees in about the same amount of time.

Graduates and current students of Politécnico Grancolombiano will receive discounted tuition on undergraduate and graduate business degrees. These programs offer Politécnico Grancolombiano students and alumni the unique opportunity of U.S. degrees at an affordable price, not possible through any other means or programs.

All degrees:

Are 100% online
Are offered by an accreditated U.S. college
Provide an international perspective without having to leave Colombia

Current students and graduates of Politécnico Grancolombiano are eligible to transfer credits to NECB for both the dual enrollment undergraduate and graduate programs. Students must be in good standing with Politécnico Grancolombiano and submit a TOEFL score of over 550.

Undergraduate Programs

Dual Enrollment - Bachelor of Business Administration from NECB / Licenciatura in Business from PG

Under this exciting new option, students will be enrolled full-time at Politécnico Grancolombiano and will also begin taking roughly ten online undergraduate courses at NECB.

Upon successful completion of the program, students will receive two degrees—a Bachelor of Business Administration from NECB and a Licenciatura in International Business from PG.

Access to industry professionals in instructional roles
