NLU's Academic Advising & Coaching teams are here to help! Each student is assigned a personal advisor based on their academic level, program and campus. We are trained to advise students in both general policy information and detailed programmatic requirements to complete your degree. We also partner with your faculty to help provide you with the best experience possible. See your advisor or coach's contact information below!
