National Louis University

Admissions

Prospective students can enroll online or in person at any of the affiliate schools of National Louis University, via the admissions office or the NLU website. After filling out a simple survey denoting what the student wishes to study, an enrollment counselor works closely with the new student to determine the best possible educational options available. There is a nominal non-refundable application fee. Additionally, the admissions application requires a brief entrance essay, test scores from any standardized test like the ACT/SAT that have been completed, as well as information about the intended course of study. High school students have to score at least 19 on the ACT and 750 on the SAT. They also have to submit two letters of recommendation along with an essay. An interview is also required.

Transfer students also work closely with enrollment counselors in order to complete their degree programs which have already been started. NLU even allows life experience to go towards college credits to finish one
