About NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY
Northwestern University was founded as a private institution in 1851 in Evanston, IL, just 12 miles north of Chicago. Since the first day classes began in 1855 with 2 faculty members and 10 students, Northwestern has grown into one of the most recognized intellectual communities both nationally and internationally. A charter member of the Big 10 and the conference’s only private institution, Northwestern is currently home to over 16,000 students and is the alma mater for more than 200,000 alumni.
Northwestern University’s athletic department is consistently one of the finest in the Big Ten and the nation. The school has gained prominence in the last two decades with the renewed success of the Wildcat football team, but fans who know college athletics know that Northwestern has long been a gem in numerous sports. Twenty-nine teams have been crowned with a conference championship, 65 individuals have won conference titles and 759 have received All-Big Ten recognition. A quick look across the board yields some truths about the quality of the Wildcats’ 19 varsity programs—and makes it no surprise to find out that Northwestern has been ranked in the Top 25 of The Sporting News listing of the top athletic departments in the nation every year that TSN has performed the survey. Northwestern’s athletes also deliver in the classroom—the department has had 1,944 Academic All-Big Ten certificates delivered since 1995-96, including more than 200 each of the last two years and a school-record 206 in 2011-12.
