Description

Saturday Academic Showcases are great for students who find it challenging to make it to campus during the week. You will have the opportunity to meet with faculty in each of our academic areas, learn more about the admissions process/scholarships, tour our beautiful campus, and meet with someone from the Financial Assistance Office. During the tour, you will hear from a current student and meet other families visiting in a group setting. All students will receive a free t-shirt and students/guests will receive free lunch!

The 90-minute walking group tour is led by a Northwest Student Ambassador who will share his or her individual experiences about Northwest and some pointers for selecting a university. The average campus tour is a 2-mile walk. If you need help walking this distance, please let us know when scheduling the time and special arrangements can be made.

The Admissions Office is not able to assist with athletic recruiting. Please reach out to Bearcat Athletics for prospective student-athlete information.
