    Did learn a lot

    Classes were good and students learned a lot in majority of classes. It's up to you to show up and give an effort. Teachers make you work for the grade but will help you if you are struggling.
    Did enjoy being here

    Nothing around to do really.
    Bang for the buck

    Cheap school with good sports teams and great town support and team spirit! Very nice wellness center. Dorms could stand to be remodeled and throughly cleaned.
    Tips for prospective students

    Not a lot to do in the town of Alva, OK. Most of the town closes in the afternoon. Be ready to do homework, play video games, or work out. Good football team, however; they have been suspended from the playoffs for the 2009-2010 season and will continue to be on probation. Teachers are good in the majority of classes. Faculty and staff listen to student reviews and make changes as deemed necessary. Police are also cracking down on the drug issues there.
    Great for these types of students

    Athletes
    Students serious about schoolwork
    Students wanting a cheap party school

    Am learning a lot

    If a student wants to learn at Northwestern, the opportunities are here. The teachers (for the most part) are more than willing and always ready to help when needed. People always want to say that small schools do not teach as much, but I know I am learning more than some of the people I graduated from high school with who are at larger universities with graduate assistants as their teachers.
    Am enjoying being here

    I do enjoy Alva. The town is small, but the atmosphere on campus and around town is very supportive of the college students. I stay busy between classes, cheer, intramural sports, the wellness center, sorority, athletic events, and homework.
    Bang for the buck

    Northwestern is a good college and very affordable. There is no reason for students to have so many college loans when they graduate especially when there are places to attend college that is less expensive that large, major universities.
    Tips for prospective students

    Northwestern is a great place to be.
    Great for these types of students

    Students who want a good education that is affordable.
    Students who enjoy atlethic events.
    Students who like to get to know other students and gain a lot of friends.

    Am learning a lot

    I learn something new every time I go to class.
    Am enjoying being here

    The town of Alva is very proud to be a college town. Everyone is very nice. The students and staff are very nice as well.
    Bang for the buck

    NWOSU is great for a person like myself, not very financially sound but wants to go to a four year college.
    Tips for prospective students

    Make sure you take a campus tour. The campus tour is what made my decision much more clear about going to NWOSU.
    Great for these types of students

    This school is great for students who like a small town and small classroom environment. The campus is small and the people on and off campus are very friendly.

    The professors are all very accessible and really want you to do well.
    Am enjoying being here

    I'm not used to the small town thing, growing up and living in Southern California most of my life. But everyone is really friendly and if you get involved (which there are plenty of opportunities to do) then you'll have a great time.
    Tips for prospective students

    Get involved with student activities. Get to know your classmates and your professors. Become familiar with the hours of the businesses in the community, because they do tend to close early.
    Great for these types of students

    Students that need fewer distractions.
    Students that are on a tight budget.
    Students interested in athletics.
