The Family Hub is here
Parents and families now have a new way to navigate the university and support you on your Northeastern journey. The Family Hub, which replaces and expands upon the Parent Portal, can allow family members of undergraduates to view student account information such as course schedules and transcripts, pay tuition bills, and add funds to a Husky account. Families can sign in to the Hub using the same login used for the Parent Portal, or their undergraduate students can grant and manage their access to the Family Hub with a family account.
