Part of Something Great.
Student Life, that's the living and learning that takes place outside of the classroom and it's a big part of your college experience. It includes where you live, how you make connections, and that hard-to-define essence, or culture that separates Northland from other colleges. Northland College has its own ambience. We chalk it up to the presence of Lake Superior and northern forests, the friendly attitude of your professors and peers, and the companionship you feel when people call you by name. The Northland "style" takes on the spirit and character of each one of us, which strengthens our community. It takes a whole community to graduate a student. You might be thinking, "What kind of student chooses Northland?" Well, all kinds. We have athletes and academics and activists (sometimes in the same person). Explore all the dimensions of what it means to be a Northland student by browsing through our guides and services.
