Northern Kentucky University Top Questions

I wish I would have known more about thier Greek Life program, and how to get invovled.

I wish i had known that college is more stressful because of the amount of work and how little of time you get to complete that work, however i think the amount they give us in that little amount of time is a challenge for us and i think it's worth the stress.

I wish I would have know before coming to Northern Kentucky University that it would take several weeks for my financial aid to be awarded.

I wish I had known how many times I would need to meet with an advisor, the character of the professors and structure of classrooms. before coming to this school. Also I wish I had known the amount of outside travel needed to complete assignments.

I wish I would have knowwn more about the cost of everything. That way I could have saved up more money for books, food, etc.

I feel I was inadequately prepared for exactly how different college life is compared to high school. In high school, an individual is given a fairly minimal amount of responsibility compared to the amount given to you in college. That's why I feel that so many students become overwhelmed at first, including myself. Had it not been for my advisor, my professors, and the wonderful health department, I may have not easily overcome such a hurdle.

Not many students stay on campus during the weekend so there are not many programs or activities going on.

Before I came to this school I wish I would have known that the NKU Grant County Center only offers your first 2 years of classes.

I wish I had known about the scholarship because it would be very helpful to me and my family right now. I am working as a nail technician right now. Working full time and having to worry about school is difficult. Another thing I wish I had known is buying books online because campus books are expensive.

I wish I had known that there aren't many jobs opportunities for just a BA degree in my field.

I wish that I would have had a chance to know the campus more. Because of personal circumstances, I was unable to really get to know most of the University and concentrated on their volleyball and nursing programs. Therefore, in looking into this University and trying to decide if it is for you, I would strongly suggest looking into as many things as you can. Education and knowledge is power, and will allow you to make the best decision for you.

One thing I could say I wish I knew how this school is not that racial diverse. Although its strating to improve its still need some work. Another key that I didn't know about the school is how the teachers our always there to help you out in your area of studies. I really like that asspect of the university.

I wish I would have known how awesome of a school it really is! NKU wasn't my first choice university, but now I know that NKU has so much to offer. NKU is by no means a small university, but small classes are not hard to find and the professors really engage with students. Throughout the years, NKU has grown into a cool place to be for learning and for fun.

The size of my workload.

I wish I had known more about campus life, clubs, and services the campus offers.

I wish I would have know that the parking prices were ridiculous and that there was no way for me to graduate in four years. The way the classes are set up and the fact that every student had to declare a minor only makes it that much harder to graduate on time.
