What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about Northern Kentucky University?

Alexandra

That i'm really able to schedule my classes on my own terms. I have an odd work schedule (2 12 hour nights per week) and I can schedule a good majority of classes in the evening or even choose to take a good amount of them online to accomodate my other schedules. Not a lot of science/health majors at other schools have that I feel.

When telling my friends from other universities about Northern Kentucky University, I mention the myriad internship and co-op opportunities the university offers. I also mention how invested the professors are in their students' general wellbeing as well as their current and future success. Professors are excited to provide students with opportuinities that will help them get accepted into graduate schools, too. The overall student, faculty, and staff community at NKU is genuinely supportive and pro-active. The university takes many measures to ensure a solid education, regardless of the major, to every student.

When people ask me about NKU, the thing that I brag about most would definitely be the professors. At a college level I feel as though it may be hard to come across a professor who genuinely loves teaching. At NKU it is the exact opposite. In my short time spent here, I have yet to meet a professor who was not passionate about the school and the learning of their students. Having passionate teachers gives students of NKU an opportunity to not simply earn their degree, but truly learn and make the most out of their college experience.

The campus, the people, everything. What isn't there to brag about? NKU is a close community - even if there are a lot of commuters. Whether you live on campus or not, there's so many opportunities to become involved, and having a say in the university. Because of the student's voices, there's nothing to complain about at NKU.

When I tell my friends about Northern Kentucky University, I am able to brag to them about the low tuition rates. I pay a third of what most of my friends who attend another school in the state have to pay, and I have had to take out less loans than others because of NKU's lower rates in tuition.

Amanda

When I tell future college students about Northern Kentucky, I explain that there are tons of positive people. Positivity is a key point when traveling away from home- you need to feel comfortable when going away. I also tell my friends that I am quite involved on campus, and that there are tons of ways become involved. Professors along with others are always encouraging students to do their best by getting involved and trying their absolute best.

That is was rated one of the top schools in the nation.

Allison

I brag about the on-campus jobs and the small class size the most when I tell other poeple about NKU.

Loranna

When I tell my friends about my school, I always find myself bragging about the proffessors and the Hoonors program. Theprofessors are all welcoming and willing to go out of their way to assist their students whenever possible. My honors proffessors have been my saving grace and grounding force as I adjust to the new world that is college. Everyone judges Northern Kentucky University because it is the university in our back yard, butit is actually a great school and I am entirely confident in my decision to attend. There is no other university that I could call home.

Kayla

We have small and interactive class sizes and the smaller size of the school makes it feel as if you're a part of something and not just lost in the crowd.
