Meet your SOAR leader

At SOAR, you will team up with a SOAR leader (an upperclass student who is active on campus) and a small group of new students who share similar interests. Your SOAR leader will lead you through the day’s activities and help you become acquainted with Northwest. Meet this year’s SOAR leaders at nwmissouri.edu/admissions/fye/soar/leaders.htm @nwmostate
