What type of housing is available at NIU?
There are a variety of options for housing at NIU. On campus a student can choose between dorms with single and shared rooms, 21 years old and over floors, gender-specific or co-ed, married student housing (1-bedroom or efficiency apartment) if you have a spouse and/or children, and some accommodation for students with disabilities. Off-campus there are several apartment complexes within walking distance of campus which typically cater to NIU students, as well as housing generally available in a university town. An NIU-sponsored bus system operates during the academic semesters and summer session. Special transportation accommodations exist for disabled students.
