2019 Jump Start Class

Running Start

Running Start at Northeastern provides an early college opportunity for TRIO eligible students. 

Join us August 9th-12th, 2026 to get a running start on your college experience. 

 

Students arrive on campus early, move into the residence halls, earn 1 college credit, orient to campus and the community, and start making life-long memories.

"I liked the environment and knowing that I have a lot of resources to look for when I’m struggling or need help. I also enjoy doing things that I’ve never done before and being able to experience them for the first time." - Running Start Student

The teachers and office workers WANT to help you to achieve your goals. That's also the reason why I actually like to go to classes, because it's important for me to combine fun and learning.

I chose NJC because of their athletic program as well as their academic standard.
