Wellness

No one succeeds all on their own—in college or in life!  If you find yourself struggling, know that you’re not alone on this journey.  You have resources at your disposal. 

We strive to help students learn the skills to cope with the stresses of change and growth so they are better able to learn and thrive after their time as a student is over. https://nl.edu/student-services/counseling-and-wellness/.

The NLU Food Pantry supports NLU students impacted by food insecurity through locations at Chicago and Wheeling. https://nl.edu/student-services/food-pantry-and-thrive-resources/about-the-nlu-pantry/

If you’re not in Chicago or Wheeling, or need other basic needs support, utilize the Single Stop app to find resources in your community: https://app.singlestop.org/nlu/thrivecenter

Depending on your program and status at NLU, you might be automatically enrolled in, or eligible to enroll in, student health insurance.  https://nl.edu/student-services/student-health-insurance/.
