NLU AWARDED $3 MILLION GRANT TO EXPAND RESEARCH AND INFRASTRUCTURE
In Fall 2024, National Louis University (NLU) was honored to be one of five Hispanic- Serving Institutions (HSIs) to receive a grant from the U.S. Department of Education to strengthen our institution’s research capabilities and infrastructure.
C olleges and universities are eligible for HSI designation if more than 25% of their undergraduate students are Hispanic/Latino. HSIs serve over 4.7 million students nationwide. NLU was designated as an HSI in 2016; today, 47% of our institution’s undergraduate students identify as Hispanic/Latino. NLU’s $3.2 million grant under this program will increase our ability to conduct and disseminate high-quality research, which, in turn, will help grow the institution’s reputation and renown. Furthermore, this investment recognizes NLU’s strong track record of preparing students for successful careers and lives, and our ability to impact even more. We look forward to sharing updates on how this grant will further elevate our institution and the communities we serve.
THIS GRANT WILL INCREASE OUR ABILITY TO CONDUCT AND DISSEMINATE HIGH- QUALITY RESEARCH, WHICH, IN TURN, WILL HELP GROW THE INSTITUTION’S REPUTATION AND RENOWN
