NIU is proud to be home to thousands of students who make this campus a community.

Huskies thrive here in a nurturing environment that supports the academic and personal success of NIU students. Where it provides them with opportunities for engagement, leadership and service to promote their welfare and persistence through the college experience in preparation for their lives after graduation. Where you can be yourself and make an impact, while receiving custom support to ensure your success.

As part of the Huskie pack, students forge lifelong friendships and memories on our beautiful campus. Our range of organizations and activities reflects the diversity of our cultures, interests and perspectives.
