Northland International University

Northland International University exists as an educational ministry that ultimately serves the local church—preparing students to serve in local churches for revival, world evangelization, and the discipling of future generations for the cause of Jesus Christ. Based on the core mastery of the Bible and a thorough grounding in a biblical worldview, Northland prepares you to lead your generation in the same manner that Jesus Christ modeled leadership while He walked among us: as a servant-leader.

But with the economy as it has been, the ability for some families to afford college for their children may seem formidable. Our financial aid staff strives to find all available means to help cut costs in order to make a college education as affordable as possible. Beyond that, we have seen God repeatedly do great and mighty things in providing for students at Northland. “Works of God” testimonies shared in chapel each Monday are a continual reminder that God can move any mountain to put us where He wants us.

Northland’s founder, Paul Patz, had a great love for people—especially those serving God in full-time ministry. He understood the financial sacrifices most make in order to live the extraordinary life. While he believed in individual fiscal responsibility and a strong work ethic, he desired—from the very beginning—to make Northland as affordable as possible for everyone—especially for those whose parents served the Lord in full-time ministry. To this end, our Ministry Scholarship is still the most generous scholarship we offer internally to our students. It is a $2,500 scholarship toward the cost of tuition each semester, totaling $5,000 per year. All students whose head of household is in full-time Christian service or a ministry-related job will receive this scholarship.

Northland is excited to continue offering about a dozen other scholarships as well, including the Heart Scholarship, which has received generous contributions in honor of Dr. Les Ollila, assisting upperclassmen students to complete their ministry training in a timely manner; the Academic Scholarship, awarding $1,500 each semester for high GPAs; the Demonstrated Need Scholarship, helping up to $2,500 each semester for difficult circumstances; the Early Decision Bonus of $500; and so on. The potential of these scholarships, coupled with the readily available federal Pell Grant of up to $5,350 per year and the newly available Wisconsin state aid, will make college an affordable reality for many students.
