What makes NWU special?

The community. A campus can be the most beautiful or have the fanciest facilities, but the if the people aren't there for right reasons, that's all irrelevant. The combination of the NWU community and access to the Lincoln community is a major difference maker too.

What advice would you give your incoming students?

Never make assumptions about a school. Whether that's cost or opportunity. Visit, apply, and talk to college reps. You'll likely be pleasantly surprised.

What are your favorite secret spots around campus or Lincoln?

I'm obviously biased, but I feel like the NWU campus is a tremendous secret in north east Lincoln. The area retains a small town charm and is still within 20 minutes of downtown or south Lincoln shopping, etc. Omaha is only like 40 minutes away too!
