FAQS
ID CARDS
Your NU ID Key Card is imperative to your functioning as a student at NU! If you lose your card or if it isn’t working properly, please visit the Information Technology Help Desk in the Barton Building. You’ll use your card for the following: • Door access into residence halls and other buildings. • Meals at The Caf. • Attendance credit for Spiritual Life events. • Resource check-out at the library. • Access to the Eagle Fitness Center. • Admission to athletic and other NU events. • Check-in to campus events. • Discounts at local businesses.
Checking your NU email is a crucial part of being a student—this is how the university communicates with you most often. Whether it is an announcement, class or professor information, or an account statement notification, you'll find what you need to know through email. Access your NU email via the Eagle homepage.
WI-FI AND INTERNET
Connect your wireless devices to the NU_Wireless network and log in with your NU email address and password. For the best experience, connect your computer to the wall jack in your residence hall room or apartment with an Ethernet cable. Remember, no personal routers are allowed.
DISCOVERY
Your professors will post class information, syllabi, assignments, and more on the Discovery website. Access Discovery via the Eagle homepage. Check out Discovery guides in the NU Student Tutorials course.
PRINTING
Need to print something? Use your student printing balance to print in computer labs, print kiosks, and in the library (add pages on your Eagle Website My Profile). Color printing, copying, and scanning to email can be done using the library student copier.
MAIL AND PACKAGES
Your campus mailing address and mailbox number are printed on the back of your NU ID Key Card. Student mailboxes are located in the Pecota Student Center, and packages can be picked up from Print and Mail Services in the Barton Building. We'll send you a text and email whenever you receive a package.
PARKING AND TRANSPORTATION
Have a car on campus? Great! Just make sure you register your vehicle on the Eagle website and pay the registration fee (find Campus Parking on the My Profile page). NU now uses virtual registration and students will not receive a physical parking permit. This is a change from previous years. If you have any questions, please reach out to the campus parking administrator at parking@northwestu.edu. If you don't have a car on campus, we have great public transportation with bus routes picking up right in front of campus. Consider purchasing an Orca Card through King County Metro and Sound Transit.
CAMPUS SECURITY
The Campus Security office is located in the Crowder Lobby. Security officers are on duty 24/7 and can be reached at 425-864-1552.

MAINTENANCE REQUESTS
Something wrong in your room? No problem. Submit a maintenance request through Eagle by going to the Maintenance page and then clicking on “NU Maintenance Requests.” The first time you do this, you’ll need to register. Once you click the button to do so, you will need to input your information and the account code: 1351861760. Next time, you’ll only need to use your email and password. Once you are in the system making the request, an additional password is required to submit—that password is “password.” If you have any questions, please call Maintenance at 425-889-5585.
