What Students Are Saying

Visit for a weekend, stay overnight. See all that the community has to offer. Be sure to visit at a time when you can take a stroll on the riverwalk and feed the ducks. If you have a chance to take in a show or play at the new music auditorium it would be worth your while. You can also stay overnight with a current student to see what weekend college life is like.
Tyler from Sandwich, IL
Visit campus and see just how nice Naperville is to live. The admissions team was really friendly and helpful both on the telephone and when I visited campus!
Sarah from Newburgh, IN
This school has a lot to offer and plenty of opportunities for students since it is somewhat small. Also, if you do decide to come, take advantage of all that the school has to offer! Like free trips to Downtown Chicago, Academic Clubs (they take trips, too), and even weekend activities.
Carmen from Memphis, TN
North Central is a great college to consider, it would really be in anyones benefit to come check out the campus.
Angelica from Aurora, IL
Try to take more than one visit to the campus. If there is something you didn't really get to see or just seeing the campus another time, you always see something new.
Samantha from Geneseo, IL
It's a really expensive school sadly but the people and teachers are great.
