    I was looking for a college that not only would challenge me academically and help me find a career that would fit, but also one that would challenge me spiritually and help me grow in my relationship with the Lord. Northwestern was a perfect fit. Here, I am daily challenged in my walk with the Lord as well as my career path. Although times are tough and earning money is becoming more and more difficult, I think it is of the highest importance to consider Northwestern not only as a key to finding a good job in the working world, but also as a turning-point decision in growing in the Lord. Money cannot buy a truly secure job or an even more secure and founded relationship with God. I would highly recommend Northwestern to prospective students needing direction in their lives. read full review

    Because I have received multiple scholarships, filed my FAFSA, and have two jobs, I will probably be able to graduate from NWC debt free. This is not the case for most students here. If you decide to go to Northwestern I would encourage you to plan ahead financially, be in control of your financial situation, and be honest with yourself about how much debt you are willing to accrue before graduating. The quality of the dorms, the challenging academic courses, and the excellent faculty make this an excellent school full of valuable opportunities - graduation with too much debt will hurt you later in life, though, so do take the time to weigh out the values before you decide one way or the other. read full review
