Life at Northwood

Ignite Your Passion. Find Your Pack.

Welcome to Northwood University, where community and opportunity collide.

At Northwood, we believe that student life is just as important as academics. That’s why we offer a wide range of extracurricular activities, clubs, and organizations to help you explore your interests, develop your skills, and make life-long connections.

Whether it’s through athletics, spirited debates, Greek life, international travel, or gaming, you’ll find a place to belong at Northwood. And because we’re a small school, you’ll have the opportunity to get involved and make a difference from the moment you set foot on campus.

Northwood’s student life is more than just extracurricular activities. It’s a community of students, faculty, and staff who are committed to helping you succeed and making you feel at home.
