    Chapel is a zero credit course that is graded on a pass/fail system. Students take chapel every semester they are enrolled at NGU, up to seven times. Students are required to attend 18 chapel services each semester in order to pass the course.

  • Is there a curfew at NGU?

    NGU does not have a curfew; however, our campus front gate and main buildings close at 12:00 a.m. on weekdays and 1:00 a.m. on weekends. We have a no-loitering policy after these hours. If students are coming or going, we ask that they have their NGU Student IDs with them. Our Campus Security Officers may ask to check their IDs in order to ensure that those entering campus are permitted to be here. This is a successful security measure we take to make sure that our students are safe.
