Under the treaty that created Northern Ireland, 6 of Ulster's 9 counties formed it. Cavan, Monaghan and Donegal had a larger Catholic population, and so they stayed as part of the rest of Ireland. They are part of Ulster, but not part of Northern Ireland. Ulster is sometimes incorrectly used to reference Northern Ireland, but only 6 of its 9 counties are part of it.
