美国东北大学目前在世界排名第346位，全美排名67位，是美国波士顿地区一所优美的私立大学。下面是为大家整理并翻译的东北大学本科奖学金信息，供大家参考。
Northeastern has established several competitive scholarship programs to reward outstanding academic achievement. To be considered for one or more of these prestigious awards, you must apply for undergraduate admission to Northeastern no later than the regular decision deadline of January 1. Only fall freshman applicants may be considered for most of these scholarships.
Students are not required to complete the financial aid applications to be considered for a merit-based scholarship.
Many scholarships require the signing of a contract of understanding, which is included with the offer of financial assistance. Most full tuition scholarships (including the Torch, BPHS, and Balfour Scholarships) require a minimum of 100 hours of community service each year. The Center of Community Service at Northeastern provides students with the tools and resources necessary to achieve success in this program.
