We hope your experience at NGU is exceptional. Part inspiration. Part perspiration. As a Christian university, we hope to be an open door of life-changing opportunities for every person we get the privilege of shaping and influencing ¬— whether students or parents or friends or neighbors.
At NGU, we have no more excellent vision than to provide each student with an exceptional education in an authentic Christian environment for a successful life of service. To us, that means offering our more than 2,500 undergraduate, online, and graduate students not only vital academic programs, but also opportunities for spiritual growth, cultural enrichment, and hands-on service you expect from a Christian university.
Together, we can make a difference for Christ, just as He has made the difference in our lives.
Student Activities offers a wide variety of recreational outlets for our students. Activities such as concerts, coffeehouses, movie nights, and trips are just a few of the many activities planned through our Activities Office. Also, the Student Center Game Room is staffed by students through our campus activity staff. The Game Room offers pool tables, ping pong tables, air hockey, table games, corn hole, spike ball, and console gaming systems. Student Activities is also responsible for significant campus events, including Miss NGU, Family Weekend, Link Orientation, Homecoming activities, and Spring Fling. The Director of Student Activities assists all on-campus organizations.
The Office of Student Activities exists to strengthen the student experience by serving, leading, and engaging students through recreational opportunities to build relationships, bolster the community, and increase student involvement at North Greenville University.
The Office of Student Leadership is over several services provided to the North Greenville University student body. These programs are designed to provide support to students and foster student development. The Office of Student Leadership serves and engages students through three main programs: First-Year Experience Mentors, partnering with Campus Ministry's Big-Little Program, and educational seminars and workshops.
The Office of Student Life strives to serve, lead, and engage students in the context of a Christ-centered campus. This is accomplished by offering services in Residence Life, Student Conduct, Campus Recreation, Student Leadership, Career Planning, and Student Health. In all things, the Office of Student Life desires to deliver services in a professional and caring manner with a servant's heart.
An integral part of Student Life is the Counseling Office. North Greenville provides counselors for those who seek assistance for a wide variety of issues. Our counselors provide a Christ-centered, clinically appropriate approach to counseling. The service is free for all students. Those who best benefit from this service are usually healthy and emotionally stable, except for their current crisis. The crisis could be a relational issue, eating disorder, separation anxiety, panic attacks, grief, or another temporary discomfort. Our counselors work caringly and confidentially to help students develop goals and habits consistent with Christian growth and ideals.
The counseling department seeks to encourage and facilitate personal and interpersonal growth and healing by providing Christ-centered, clinically appropriate individual and group counseling for students, staff, and faculty. The goal is to help these individuals become whole emotionally, relationally, spiritually, psychologically, physically, and academically.
The North Greenville University Office of Career Planning is dedicated to assisting students in meeting their education and career goals. Career Planning also supports current students and alumni in their job searches. Résumé workshops, etiquette dinners, professional seminars, and job fairs are a few of the students' resources. Also, students receive support as they navigate through the graduate school application process. The Director of Career Planning functions as the advisor for the Student Government Association.
At North Greenville University, student aid is generally awarded based on financial need. Defined, financial need is the difference between the student's cost of education (tuition, fees, room-board, and books) and how the student and family are expected to contribute toward meeting those costs. To determine eligibility for financial aid, the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is required. Financial aid forms are available at the university financial aid offices and high school counseling offices.
Love is actionable and demonstrated by what we do for others. Understanding this principle, North Greenville University faculty and staff actively seek to build meaningful and lasting relationships with students, guiding them to understand their purpose and place in God's Kingdom and demonstrating God's active role in their lives.
This initiative enables the principle of love by allowing us time to focus on students to see them as potential rather than a collection of documents, to seek their welfare in addition to financial aid, to teach discernment and wisdom as well as knowledge, and to come alongside them as they seek their place in God's Kingdom.
Technology must support the university's plan for delivering services to the student supporting university needs, inclusive of what is yet to be imagined. The software search and implementation focused on those goals by seeking modular, flexible, and extensible software.
