Your online access to the wealth of NLU resources and services is ready!
Dear student,
Welcome to National Louis University! We have established a student email account for you and you are a few clicks away from "real-time" information and services.
The NLU portal and email accounts are our official channels of communication with you, where you obtain important information such as grades and account balances. In addition, your instructors, NLU student services, and academic program staff will contact you through your NLU email with upcoming events, deadlines, and vital information for your success. It is important that you make checking your NLU email part of your routine as a student. You are responsible for all information that is sent to you via this account.*
Again, welcome you to National Louis University. We're here to make your educational experience rewarding as you fulfill your
goals.
Sincerely,
Steve Neer
Assistant Vice Provost of Advising and Retention
