Let’s be honest.
You can get your bachelor’s degree from a zillion places.
So why Be a B at NLU?
Top nine reasons (A Top Ten List Is So Last Decade):
9. GenEd courses are available online—and you can finish a course in six weeks.
8. You can earn your entire degree online—in health care leadership, management, and management information systems.
7. We are experts in adult education—teaching men and women who are working, raising a family, and can’t find time to walk the dog. We’ve been doing just that since 1886.
6. Our small classes are REALLY small. More than 90 percent have fewer than 20 students.
5. Faculty teach all of our classes—and they're good teachers.
4. NLU faculty will teach classes onsite where you work.
3. You can probably get a lot of credit for your transfer credits—even with an A.A.S. degree.
2. We’ve got five campuses in Chicagoland—as well as one in Tampa, Milwaukee, Washington D.C. and Alexandria Virginia.
And the Number One Reason to Be a B at NLU?
1. We produce cool videos.
To Be a B or Not to Be a B?
Now that's a stupid question.
Because the answer is so obvious.
BE A B.
MAKE MORE MONEY.
