- NKU believes that a diverse student body enhances the quality of the living and learning environment. Please describe how aspects of your life experiences, special skills or values equip you to make a positive contribution to help ensure that NKU is a community that is welcoming and supportive and one that celebrates and respects our differences.
- NKU students are just as engaged outside of the classroom as they are inside it. Whether it’s through service, research, mentoring, campus employment, athletics, visual or performing arts, or something else entirely, NKU students shape their community and make it a dynamic place to live and learn. We’re eager to know about the most meaningful ways you spend your time. Please tell us about your activities when you’re not in the classroom, which may include extracurricular activities, community service, hobbies, employment or family responsibilities.
Each essay will need to be at least 750 words or less.
