Bad Experience

What a hassle! They ask for so many forms!Every year I'm stressed over financial aid. Currently looking for scholarships for my last year at NIU because I don't have enough money for my classes for next semester. I would strongly suggest going to a community college then transferring to NIU after you took your pre-reqs.
