Good reviews

Love this school! It definitely has a HS vibe though. However, if you find the right people you'll enjoy every moment. You learn a lot, grow deeper with your faith, and create memories for a lifetime. Would highly recommend NU! Just make sure if you're a transfer student that you're connected with NU before hand to be sure you are set to graduate.

Campus is wayyy overpriced, dorms are disgusting, things are often broken including AC and heat, WiFi works only 50% of the time, food cafeteria is gross, maintenance requests either take a really long time or do not get resolved. Unless youre a nursing or Bible major there are zero academic opportunities or connections. Kirkland is beautiful tho!
