Your student is stepping into a place where they’ll be supported, challenged, celebrated, and prepared for what comes next.
At Northwest, we focus on helping every student build confidence, discover strengths, and become career-ready, day one. And as a parent or family member, you’re a vital part of that journey. Together, we’ll make the transition to college one that your student — and your family — can feel excited and assured about.

Stay involved through Northwest’s signature family events — Move-In Day, Family Weekend, Homecoming, and Commencement. Mark your calendar!

A campus visit is the best way to experience the energy, spirit, and support your student will find here. Meet faculty, explore classrooms, walk through residence halls, and ask questions about majors, scholarships, and resources. Whether you come for a daily visit or a showcase event, we’re ready to welcome your whole family.

Stay connected! Sign up for updates, follow campus news, and get the latest on events, deadlines, and resources. Whether your student is just beginning their journey or already settled at Northwest, we’ll help you stay in the loop and feel connected to everything happening on campus.
