Welcome Wednesday

NKU ROCKS Students gathered around the rock in Norse Commons.

NKU offers rising seniors (2026 high school graduates) and their families the opportunity to visit NKU's campus this summer at our Welcome Wednesday Open House.

During your Welcome Wednesday, you'll have the opportunity to:

Listen to an overview of NKU academics, student life, and our application process
Explore campus on a walking tour with a student tour guide
Have lunch with faculty and advisors from your intended academic major
Learn more about getting involved and support offices on campus at a Student Services Browsing Fair

You will walk away from this day prepared for NKU’s admissions and scholarship process!

2025 Welcome Wednesday dates are coming soon!
