New test scores can be submitted through June 30 of the senior year.  In some cases, if a new score is submitted after NNU has awarded financial aid, and the new score results in a higher scholarship NNU may reduce other aid offered.

Additional need-based assistance is determined by information we get from your FAFSA, which can be submitted at www.fafsa.ed.gov.  To ensure we get the information we need, please include our school code of 001624 on your FAFSA.

More complete information about the financial aid process is available on the Office of Financial Aid website.

Ask our graduates what was most valuable to them during their time at NNU, and we'll bet they don't say a word about financial aid.

We get it! Funding your college education can be a concern. At NNU, we know that one key consideration in the decision-making process is finances, and we recognize and acknowledge that covering the cost of college is a challenge for many families. We believe a Christian college though, and specifically NNU, is a great choice and a worth-while investment.

We believe you will find the academically rigorous and transformative education within a Christian community that places a high value on relationships to be worth the price.
