Northeast College Begins Fall 2025 Trimester, Marks One Year of New Programs, Record Enrollment

Northeast College of Health Sciences welcomed new and returning students to the Fall 2025 Trimester while celebrating record enrollment of the largest student body since before the pandemic.

Classes officially began Sept. 8 for students in the Doctor of Chiropractic program, offered on the Seneca Falls and Long Island campuses; students in the Associate of Applied Science programs in Radiologic Technology and Diagnostic Medical Sonography at the Seneca Falls Campus; and students in the College’s 100% online M.S. in nutrition and human anatomy and physiology instruction programs. Earlier, on Sept. 6, students began the weekend-based Massage Therapy certificate program, also held in Seneca Falls.

Northeast College continues to grow, driven by its expanding portfolio of in-demand health sciences programs and its strong commitment to student career success. The 2024 opening of a Long Island branch of the College’s flagship Doctor of Chiropractic program has further accelerated this momentum, allowing Northeast to excel at a time when many institutions are struggling with enrollment challenges.

One-Year Anniversary of New Undergraduate Health Sciences Programs

This fall marks the first anniversary of the College’s newest programs—its first terminal undergraduate degrees and certificate option—designed to meet growing workforce demand for highly skilled imaging professionals and licensed massage therapists.

“These programs represent both the evolution of Northeast and our commitment to providing high-quality, in-demand healthcare education pathways,” said Dr. Michael Mestan, president of Northeast College. “We’re especially proud to see these classes find success quickly. It highlights not only the strong demand for these professions but also the dedication of students eager to serve as the next generation of healthcare leaders.”

Northeast College welcomed a record number of students into its residence halls on the Seneca Falls Campus for the 2025–2026 academic year, with more than 180 undergraduate and graduate students moving in over the weekend of Sept. 5 on the Seneca Falls Campus. The milestone was celebrated with a lineup of Welcome Weekend events designed to connect students and the College community. Residence hall occupancy has grown significantly in recent years, a trend attributed in part to the College’s commitment to keeping housing costs among the lowest in the region—an effort to support students as they pursue their health sciences education.

With students enrolling from across the United States and Canada, Northeast continues to strengthen its reputation as a top destination for health sciences education. From chiropractic to nutrition, imaging sciences to massage therapy, the College remains steadfast in its mission to prepare passionate, highly qualified professionals to meet the needs of today’s evolving healthcare system.
