Each year the NIU Student Financial Aid Office works with students and their families to help make an NIU education more affordable. We assist them in navigating through the financial aid application process, and work with them to identify grants, loans, and scholarship opportunities for which they may be eligible.

We recognize the financial commitment you and your family are making and encourage you to consider the importance of applying for financial aid. Please contact us if you would like to discuss your individual circumstances and what financial aid resources may be available to make an NIU education within your reach.
