First-year

Our admissions team is excited to support you in your college application process. First year students are first-time college applicants who are entering college after graduating from high school. Applicants who have taken college credit through programs such as Running Start, a partnership program with community colleges, and AP scores are considered first year students. A high school transcript is required for admission. Test scores like the SAT, ACT, or CLT scores are optional.

Transfer

Transfer students are applicants who have attended college after graduating from high school. All official college transcripts are required. Official high school transcript or proof of high school completion may also be required depending on the amount of college credits you have earned.

Additional Information

Research shows that young adults are most likely to lose their faith while in college. But NU is not like most other universities. Here, you’ll be encouraged and challenged in your spiritual life like never before: at chapel services, by the new friends you make, by the questions you tackle in class, and by the image of Christ you see in the students and faculty around you each day.

For many Christian students who are serious about their commitment to follow Jesus and want an education that prepares them for a life that makes a difference in this world for God’s kingdom, a private Christian university should be considered the most prestigious and best.
