Student Development

Student Development at Northwest University is about much more than simply having a place to live while you study.  Our residence life team is committed to creating an “intentional community” on our campus.  Our goal is to provide a Christ-centered environment for our students to develop spiritually, intellectually, and socially.  We want to help you prepare to Carry the Call.

Your time at Northwest will involve hard work as you prepare for your future, but it will also include opportunities to enjoy the process and make lifelong friends.  Be a participant, not just a spectator.

As you discover your place in our community, you’ll find ways to grow and learn.  For example, develop your leadership skills by serving with the Student Government or the Student Senate, learn about teamwork by participating in recreational sports, or explore career opportunities in Career Development.
