Now that you’re official, the first thing you’ll want to do is activate your Northeastern account.
Your Northeastern account unlocks the way to university resources, including the Student Hub and email accounts. Your username and password will be set up when you claim your account. To claim a Northeastern student account, click the unique link in the account claim email you receive. The link will remain valid for 60 days after receipt.
