How can we help you GET STARTED on your bachelor’s degree?

Juggling. Balancing. Making it all work. Finding time for family, work and school. Paying for classes. Commuting. Parking. Dealing with anxiety. Figuring out what classes to take. Wondering if you will be able to do it.

You’ve come to a university where students with jobs, family and full-time responsibilities are the rule, not the exception. The NLU faculty and staff have been working with students like you since 1886—and they know how to help you get a degree in education, business, health care leadership, psychology, counseling and more than 60 other programs. 

At NLU, education is more than book learning. It’s about getting to know yourself, meeting new friends, being inspired by great teachers—and discovering that you can indeed succeed.

How can we help you CONTINUE AND THEN FINISH your bachelor’s degree?

You’ve already earned some college credits. In high school.  At a community college.  At another four-year college or university.

In education, business, health care leadership, psychology, counseling and other programs.

Now you want to know where to go next. Does a four-year degree make sense? How long will it take? What will it cost? And, if it’s been awhile since you’ve been in a college class, you want to know how things have changed. Can you keep up?

Add to that the commuting, childcare, parking, full-time job, family—and you may be wondering if it’s worth it.

So start by giving yourself some credit—and let’s see which of your credits can be applied to an NLU bachelor’s degree.
