Hello,

Our scholarship funding is growing.

DeKalb County school graduates who apply to NIU for fall 2024, file their FAFSA by Feb. 1 and meet our AIM HIGH criteria will automatically be considered for one of our newly increased AIM HIGH Partnership Awards.

Beginning fall 2024, we’re moving from a one-time $3,000 award to an annual, renewable $1,000 award. This increases our total award amount for each student from $3,000 to $4,000.

At NIU, we offer a variety of financial aid and scholarships opportunities to meet the needs of our students, including our merit scholarships based solely on high school GPA. Last fall, we awarded more than $27 million in scholarships.

Please encourage your students at Genoa-Kingston High School to apply to NIU today. There’s no application fee, and we don’t use test scores to make admissions decisions.
Questions? Simply reply to this email or give us a call at 815-753-0446.

Go Huskies!
