IF YOU ARE A COLLEGE TRANSFER READ THIS:

Based on current NCAA rules, Northern Illinois CANNOT respond via e-mail or phone to any four-year college transfer student without the student-athlete obtaining a release from the first college and faxing that release to the Northern Illinois Athletic Department at (815) 753-8887. Once the release is obtained from the first college, then the Northern Illinois University coach will be able to contact you. In sports other than football, basketball and baseball, four-year college transfer students should make sure their current college will release them to be immediately eligible to compete before considering Northern Illinois University.
