Counseling sessionSince 1886, NLU faculty and staff have been working with people just like you. Our reputation has been built on helping men and women with jobs, families and responsibilities cut through the red tape and get started on their NLU education.

And the NLU admissions process is not "one size fits all." Each student is different—and so you will get individual attention from our faculty and staff every step of the way.

We've simplified our application form so that you can apply online in an average of 5 minutes. Or print out the forms and either mail or fax them to us. We'll let you know when we've received your application and keep you posted as we process it. Or tell us more about yourself and we can guide you to relevant information.
