The New England Board of Higher Education (NEBHE) is a regional interstate compact agency for higher education in the six New England states. Congress consented to the New England Higher Education Compact in 1954, and NEBHE dates its founding to 1955. The NEBHE was created to expand educational opportunities and coordinate higher education resources across the region.

The NEBHE administers the New England Regional Student Program, now known as Tuition Break, and publishes The New England Journal of Higher Education. Additionally, the NEBHE coordinates the region for the State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement (SARA).
