WHY CHOOSE NORTHWEST UNIVERSITY? HIGHEST INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITATION

CARING AND RESPONSIVE FACULTY

SIMPLE AND INTUITIVE INTERFACE

Accreditation is important. It means that the college has met certain standards and offers qualifications that will be recognized by other schools or by an employer. Not all online programs are accredited—something you never have to worry about at NU.

Our online instructors aren’t simply hired for their knowledge. We also look for professors who love students and bring out their very best. Many come from local companies and offer real-world insight into your career.

Once you log onto our online program portal, you’ll notice how easy it is to use. In no time at all, you’ll be watching lectures, visiting the library, uploading assignments, and contributing to conversations on message boards with your classmates.

FAITH INTEGRATION NU is a Christian university. Every course we offer has a unique component that helps you understand how the subject relates to your faith. Unlike other online programs, NU actually encourages your faith. Most students find this to be a refreshing approach.

EXCEPTIONAL EDUCATION With over 80 years of experience, we’ve taken all of that knowledge to create online courses that engage, inspire, and prepare. Many of our online courses are identical to our on-campus programs. The only difference? You can take them from anywhere.

LEARN IN A COMMUNITY Even though our courses are online, you’ll learn with others. Every student is placed in a cohort of classmates who are in the same program. Through message boards, email, and other online tools, you’ll develop an encouraging community of learners.

THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST = INNOVATION Our campus is part of a culture that has produced world-changing innovations.

Microsoft is just up the street. Amazon is just across the bridge. This same spirit of innovation led us as we developed our online programs.

24/7 HELP If you ever have a technical problem, there is help available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Luckily, our technology and user interface are so reliable and easy to use, technical help is rarely, if ever, needed.

BE PART OF SOMETHING REAL. Students who choose an online degree from Northwest University enjoy a full range of college experiences. Our 56-acre campus overlooks Lake Washington and online students are invited to enjoy all that we have to offer. You can cheer for the Eagles at a basketball game. Grab lunch in The Caf. Worship in the chapel. Attend special events on campus. Use the Career Development Center. You can even arrange a meeting with your professors.

If you ever need us for any reason, we’re here.
