🌈 Follow the Yellow Brick Road... it just might lead you straight to college success!

Just like Dorothy, you don't have to make the journey alone. Need some brains? 🧠 We've got resources. Need some heart? ❤️ We've got people who care. Need some courage? 🦁 We've got encouragement to help you tackle whatever comes your way.

And when the Wicked Witch of missed deadlines, tough exams, unexpected obstacles, or Monday mornings tries to throw a flying monkey your way, the SSC is here to help you stay on the path.

Along the way, you'll find friends, discover your strengths, overcome challenges, and realize you're capable of more than you ever imagined. Before you know it, your journey at NSU will lead you to a very special destination... joining the Guild of Alumni! 🎓✨

After all, every Yellow Brick Road eventually leads somewhere. Ours just happens to lead to a diploma, lifelong friendships, and membership in a community that has been welcoming Northern graduates for 125 years. 💛

🐺✨ The Lollipop Guild helped Dorothy find her way. At NSU, your goal is even better: joining the Guild of Alumni. We've been adding new members for 125 years, and unlike Oz, no one has to sing to get in. 🎶😂🎓

So gather your Scarecrows, Tin Men, and Lions, follow the Yellow Brick Road, make some memories, and celebrate all that makes Northern special.

👠🏡✨ There's no place like Homecoming at NSU... and for 125 years, Wolves have been finding their way home. 💛
