Our Supportive Ecosystem

NU’s holistic approach encompasses five aspects of well-being that create a supportive ecosystem.

Academic

We support students every step of the way in their educational journey, providing academic resources to help them excel in their studies. This includes help with study skills, time management, and free tutoring.

Financial

We save students time and tuition with millions in scholarships, free e-books to military students, flexible payment options, general transfer credits, and more.

We provide students with social and emotional resources and support to foster mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. Student case managers help students with resources for things like housing and food insecurity to mental health.

Career

We offer degrees aligned with real-world careers and guidance designed to support students’ career goals — from career counseling to resume and cover letter review to interview preparation.

Family Life & Community

We understand the challenges faced by students who are working parents and offer support through flexible courses to help them balance family, work, and school, as well as student clubs and a virtual veterans center.
