Northwestern is your student's home-away-from-home, and you're welcome to visit campus any time. You'll definitely want to visit during Raider Nation Celebration, our Homecoming and Family Weekend. Your family will enjoy a picnic meal, Raider football, a music concert, a theatre production and more.
