| Academically excellent |
A Northwestern education is recognized for its high quality by U.S. News & World Report, Peterson’s Competitive Colleges, the Princeton Review and Rugg’s Recommendations on the Colleges. Our professors hold doctorates from places that include Cornell, Duke, Princeton and the University of Chicago. What’s more, they’re passionate about teaching and about being available to you. |
|
|
| Christ-centered |
At Northwestern, you’ll be given the freedom to ask questions and the support you need to find answers. You’ll learn in an environment where a Christian worldview is integrated into every subject and where opportunities for ministry are nearly unlimited. |
|
|
| Community-focused |
You’ll make great friends at Northwestern—among faculty and staff as well as students. And you’ll have fun. Our Student Activities Council packs the calendar with concerts, dances and other social events that draw the campus together. |
|
|
| A small campus with a large worldview |
Northwestern students can choose from semester-long or summer study abroad programs. Our musical groups and sports teams travel overseas to perform and serve. And every year, more than 200 Northwestern students participate in service trips to other states and nations. |
|
|
| Valuable and affordable |
Northwestern is one of the few colleges in the nation that offers a tuition guarantee. That means you won't have to worry about tuition hikes—or higher room and board costs—while you earn your degree. Each year, 99 percent of our students receive financial aid. While the amount of individual awards depends on each family's FAFSA results and resources, the average award is more than $16,000 per student. |
|
|
| Results-oriented |
You’ll graduate from Northwestern with the critical thinking, problem-solving and communication skills necessary for an ever-changing workplace. Ninety-six percent of our students find jobs or are in graduate schools within six months of graduation. Recent alumni have gone to MIT, Notre Dame, Vanderbilt and Yale and have been hired by Boeing, Christianity Today, the Minneapolis Public Schools and Wells Fargo Financial. |
|
|
| Committed to each student’s calling |
At Northwestern, we recognize that your calling is more than a career—and discovering that calling is a lifelong process. We’ll give you broad exposure to many fields of study, provide you with leadership opportunities, and encourage your involvement in co-curricular activities. You’ll have access to the resources of the Career Development Center and to faculty and staff who will serve as advisers and mentors. |
