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.

In three sentences
Coming to a smaller town from a larger town I just have to say this... Dont expect to have lots of stuff in town to do. Be a good student, study hard, and play hard with your friends. Also go to club meetings or try out for a sports team!
Tips for prospective students
This school is really flexible and will work with you, I would definitely keep it as an option.
Academic Rigor
Teachers care! One of my Professors even gave me a book to borrow since he recommended it. The book was author signed and very valuable, but he trusted and cared for me enough to let me borrow it!
Dorm Life
Sometimes it kinda sucks that you have to be on a meal plan if you live in the dorms, and the smallest amount is 10.
Food and Dining
so far, I haven't gotten sick from the food. Eat the salads and fruit! They have it every lunch and dinner, and fruit all day :)
What to do for fun
Play a sport, watch movies in the movie rooms in your dorms, go to sporting events, participate in a club or activity and do everything with them, theres always fun stuff going on, you just have to look!
Bang for the buck
Some of the Best Affordability in the nation!
Greek Life
Theres two Sororities and one Fraternity, they seem to have fun, but their presence here isn't super loud, if you know what I mean.
Campus Safety
Campus police are great! And can even golf cart you to class if you have a broken leg!
