Virtual Open House - February 15, 2021

Monday, February 15, 2021 at 4:00 PM until 6:00 PMCentral Standard Time

A test score doesn’t tell your story, which is why we don’t consider standardized test scores for general admissions, merit scholarships — and even our University Honors Program. Find out what else sets us apart at our Virtual Open House.

During this online event, you’ll attend presentations about admissions, financial aid and choosing your major. You can also pose questions to a panel of current NIU students and participate in live chats about student life, our cultural resource centers, our honors program, career services, our academic colleges and programs, and more.
