Northwest Fund

The Northwest Fund is a fund that allows Northwest to address the University’s most pressing needs. A gift to the Northwest Fund provides the University with unrestricted flexibility to meet unforeseen needs as they arise and to capitalize on opportunities as they emerge at Northwest. The Northwest Fund provides the opportunity for alumni, parents and friends of the University to assist in preserving a quality Northwest education for current and future Bearcats for years to come.

Because of generous supporters like you, our Bearcats can dream bigger, achieve more, and change their lives through education. At Northwest, we believe in providing:

  • Access: Laptops and textbooks are included in tuition so no student is left behind.
  • Real-world experience: Students gain hands-on skills at the Horace Mann Laboratory School, the R.T. Wright Farm, and our industry-grade media and cybersecurity labs.
  • Career success: Our 95% placement rate helps Bearcats launch careers, serve communities, and become leaders in their fields.
