My school originated as a teacher training university. So, it was created to prepare students who were pursuing teaching careers, not any other careers. As the years went by, the university developed several programs. Today, there are several majors and minors within the six colleges at this university. I am proud to attend NIU because I know there was several teacher certification majors who came before me. It is motivating to understand that if thousands of teachers could graduate in over a hundred years before me, I can, too.

Northern was fairly close to home for me and I knew a few people already attending class here and enjoyed it. Their communication program is pretty good and I really enjoy being here and doing what I'm doing.

Northern Illinois University has a diverse population of students that offer activities for every type of person. I feel that Northern was the perfect school giving me the opportunity to build relationships and obtain a worthy education. At the same time, gained many memorable experiences at the campus.

Northern Illinois University has a relatively new business school called Barsema Hall. Classes are taught by professors, not teacher assistants. Northern Illinois University has very student organizations to become involved in. NIU is split between commuters and residents. It also has a diverse campus.
Phylisia
what is unique about my school is that they help out students who have done really bad in high school. Northern give them another chance to become what they want and make their life better then it was.
Trish

Northern Illinois University is unique for its community, majors and campus surroundings. The campus has its advantages such as having the huskie tracks to take students to their classes and back at the dorms. Our community unites together with different organizations to form a union as a whole. We also have a greek life to form bonds between brothers and sisters. NIU is unique for its reliability for study locations such as the library, the American Resource Center, dorm lounges and pretty much everywhere and anywhere. I love how we can have fun and study at the same time.
