The New England Board of Higher Education (NEBHE) is an interstate compact established in 1955 by the governors of the six New England states: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. While the compact was approved by each state's legislature and authorized by the U.S. Congress.
NEBHE's mission is to promote greater educational opportunities and services for New England residents. It facilitates collaboration among public and private higher education institutions, coordinates regional initiatives, and administers programs aimed at improving access, affordability, and innovation in postsecondary education.
