Homecoming is an event for alumni and the entire Northwestern community—students, staff and faculty, and supporters of the college. Homecoming is very kid- and family-friendly, so bring the whole gang! Some events, such as the Billy Graham Era Alumni Excursion, are for alumni and spouses or adult guests.
Where should I park?
There are large parking areas available and parking shuttles will also be provided throughout the weekend. Follow signs to designated parking area and look for the shuttle stop.
Will my tickets be mailed to me?
Yes, the NWC Ticket Office will mail your tickets to you once you have placed your online order.
Are tickets needed for all events?
Paper tickets are only needed for events noted as “ticketed” or “registration required.”
Am I able to get a refund on my tickets?
There are no refunds or exchanges available.
Why aren't there class reunions this year?
We are so excited to share the new Billy Graham Community Life Commons with everyone we wanted to make this year's Homecoming a welcoming event for all alumni—so we opted not to host class-year specific reunions. In the era of social media, we hope our alums will connect with one another and encourage classmates to come to Homecoming, and anticipate all classes will be well represented.
Why isn't Showcase a part of Homecoming this year?
Due to the grand opening of the Billy Graham Community Life Commons and the involvement of the music department in this celebration, a decision was made to take a one-year hiatus from Showcase. We are excited to say that Showcase will return in 2012!
