Northwestern College has good academic, athletic, and art programs. Some benefits of Northwestern include: the small class size, genuine and caring professors/coaches, extremely safe community, and the thriving job market of northwest Iowa. The biggest drawback to NWC is that everyone knows everything about everyone and word and judgement travel quickly across campus. Overall, I would give Northwestern four stars out of five. The campus is gorgeous, the people are friendly, and there is a coffee shop on campus - what more could a college kid ask for?
Northwestern College is a great college to attend to in the Chicago-land area. They have awesome healthcare programs with great instructors to add to them. They want to see students be successful and make sure the have the tools they need for when actually going to into the workforce. The college also has many opportunities for students such as federal work study programs to help students pay for some of their tuition costs.
Northwestern College is a small, Christian college but still has hundreds of opportunities for involvement within the campus, community, and the world. They hold academics to the highest standard and want you to succeed when you graduate. They believe in you and what you do.

Don't think that you can make it on the bare minimum. Utilize the resources available to you such as the library and the tutoring centers. There is no shame in asking for help. The point of being in college is to prepare you for life, and you will live a fuller life if you attempt to excel not just get by.
My classmates are wonderful. The fact that I can get a completely random set of personalities to brighten my day makes me so very happy. I am an extravert and having, as mentioned earlier, a diverse campus has its benefits when it comes to types of personalities. They are hard workers and are very helpful.
The kind of person that should attend Northwestern is a hard working individual but also an individual that likes to have fun and participate in crazy campus activities.
Northwestern College is best known for it's close-knit community that intergrates faith and learning.
Northwestern is a small college that has a great "family feel". Everyone knows each other and generally everyone is extremely friendly. The only downfalls are the location and food. Orange City is an extremely boring town with really nothing to do and the food there isn't great, but what campus does have good food? Northwestern does approach every class from a Christian perspective and depending on your perspective that can be a great experience or extremely annoying
I consider the best thing about Northwestern College is it's size. It is small enough that most of your professors know you, and big enough where you can have a large network of friends.
Northwestern College is a progressive, all-enveloping, close-knit community that strives for academic excellence and serving the needs of each and every student.
It tends to be conservative at times. It is reformed religion, and sometimes, I think it gets caught in the politics of running a school and also being associated with a church.
Currently, the most frustrating thing is that some of the professors are not very stable. One professor has canceled meetings at the last moment and has handed out major, important paperwork that was unknown to the students with only two weeks left in the quarter. It has been frustrating but has taught me to be on top of things and to make sure that everything else is done so that when these surprises come up, they are easily handled.
A person that wants to skip classes and still pass the class. To go to this school you have to work for your grade, it is not easy here to bs your way through.
I wish I would of known how much time I would need to spend on my school work.
The community and the teachers that take a personal interest in your learning and want to see you succeed.
