All persons intending to enroll in for-credit classes at Northern must apply and be accepted before they can register. The best time to apply is at least one month before classes begin.
If you have attended Northern at any time since spring 2007, you do not need to re-apply in order to enroll for summer or fall 2009. You only need to apply for re-admission for summer or fall 2009 if you last attended Northern before summer 2007.

Northern is an open-admissions college, so you don't need to have minimum ACT or SAT scores to be admitted, but if you are new to college and seeking a certificate or degree, you will need to take the college's COMPASS Placement Test to determine your appropriate course level and your eligibility for Financial Aid. If you are seeking to enroll as a concurrent/dual credit high school student, you will also need to take the college's COMPASS Placement Test to determine your appropriate course level. If you are a transfer student, your placement will be determined by an evaluation of your transfer credits as recorded on official transcripts sent from all of your previous colleges and universities directly to the Office of Admissions and Recruitment.
