Northern Kentucky University Top Questions

I feel like my school hasnt forgotten about the arts like most other non-art focused universities. Its nice to have student art around campus and for my artistic friends to share with me all the time they have to really work on what they love.

Although I only applied to a few other schools before choosing NKU, one thing that I feel NKU offered that other schools did not was the desire to truly help students succeed in all areas. When I got accepted to NKU, I immediately began to recieve welcome letters and invitations to different events designed to help incoming freshman get involved and give them a jump start to being successful in their classes. This is extremely beneficial to students who are not sure how to find their place and survive in a school as large as this.

The unique quality that drew me into Northern Kentucky University was the friendly atomosphere. Everyone that I encountered at NKU were very friendly and helpful. It was clear that the students and staff were all passionate about being apart of the NKU community. Once completing my first semester at NKU, I felt the same. I feel that a lot of students at NKU strive to be leaders on campus through all of the different campus organizations. One of the best things about student organizations at NKU is that everyone supports other organizations and proves that NKU has a strong community.

Personally, I believe my school is extremely unique. I enjoy the fact that NKU is not a party school. In my opinion, I do not feel pressured to go out on the weekends. I feel comfortable in my own skin at my school. Also, I don't feel as if I have to fit a certain stereotype to please others. NKU has so many opportunities to make yourself known. Personally, NKU is a fantastic way for people to overcome their weakness and come out of their shells.

it is very liberal and open minded about many different genders, sexualities religions and ethnicities. the professors always want to develop a good relationship with their students it is comforting to know that i can always find somewhere to go when i want to socialize or need help studying or just support for any struggles i have

In comparison to the other school I considered, Northern Kentucky University is not only much more affordable, it is also more welcoming of its students and their differences. From the moment I step on to my campus in the morning until the moment I leave I am surrounded by a faculty and staff that genuinely wants to see their students succeed in all that they do. The faculty encourages the students to be themselves and to be proud of their differences.

NKU is pretty high qualtiy without paying tens of thousands of dollars

Northern Kentucky University is a very friendly campus. The staff and student body are always interacting and creating wonderful relationships. The help offered with academic struggle is really impressive. Most of the classes are small, which gives a lot of room for one-on-one with the professors and leaves a lot of space to ask questions. It makes the material much easier to understand. There is also a wide variety of clubs and organizations around campus to help build a passionate, involved student body.It's truly a great environment.

NKU has professors that actually care about you as an individual.

Orginially having attended another university, NKU is unique because of the enthusiasm of everyone there. All faculty and students alike are enthralled in their disciplines and everyone actually wants to be there. This makes learning both more interesting and more enjoyable.

Personally I like how the class setting is very intimate, and small in size. In a normal there are no more than 30 people in a class and in a lecture hall there is less than 100 students in the class. To me this is very helpful because it allows you to build a repoor with your professor so they could get to know how I am as a student. I also enjoy the fact that there is free tutoring on campus at Northern Kentucky because most schools don't allow free tutoring for certain class.

Northern Kentucky University is unique because it has a new informatics building that is really cool to have classes in. It has awesome lights and neat new technology. Also, the student union was voted neatest building in Kentucky. This is a cool acomplishment! I love being a part of a community that cares about the students! I feel like I belong in this school which is unique because most students do not like college. I think it is fun and love to get involved on campus. They provide many opportunites for everyone and anyone to get out and help!

Have not started school yet

This school was closer to home so there was more familiarity with the other students that attend there. This was also an overall very safe schools compared to the other universities that I was considering. Lastly, this campus is constantly updating buildings and the overall quality of the campus keeping it new and up-to-date with the new technology.

I think NKU has much more of a community atmosphere. It is big enought to where you do not know everyone but small enough to be like a small family. I think it is perfect.

NKU has a vast variety of diversity in the university. The main reason this college captured my attention versus the other colleges I was planning on attending was the fact that the campus is not that large and I was able to make it from one side of the campus to another within ten minutes. Also unlike the University of Cinncinati the professors that teach the class are professionals and didn't just get out of college.

NKU has an extremely comfortable atmosphere. I was worried that attending college at my age would be uncomfortable at a university. It has been quite the opposite! I love the inviting, comfortable, fun atmosphere!

I chose NKU becuase they offered an online degree that interested me. They have lots of choices for people that would benefit from online classes. I am a mother and work full time, so this was an excellent choice for me!

The most unique thing about my school is that it offers a private school education at a public school cost.

Most schools seem stressed, like everyone is in a hurry. NKU is relaxed, everyone is friendly to eachother. Also, the teachers are very involved with their students. I always hear from my friends at other colleges, how their professors don't care and just watch as students fail their classes. Every professor I have had always addresses me and other students when they notice a problem. I didn't know there were online assignments in my chemistry class , my professor quickly noticed and informed me. He even granted me an extension so i could finish the missed assignments as well.
