Welcome to Northern Illinois University!

Like you, we know a little bit about great football around here. Entering this season, the Huskies had the fourth-best winning percentage in the country since 2010; have made seven straight bowl game appearances (including the Orange Bowl in 2013); and are winners of 35 out of our last 36 games at Huskie Stadium.

We also know what it takes to make a great game day experience: You need a plan, and we are here to help you make the most of your time at NIU.

Our interactive map for the playoffs highlighting places to park, shuttle routes and information on the IHSA Destination DeKalb’s Spirit Zone (featuring a tent for each competing school where fans can gather pre- and-post-game). You also will access links to the IHSA Destination DeKalb website where you can find everything from directions to historic Huskie Stadium from anywhere in the state, to information on hotels so that you can stick around and celebrate your victory in town.

If there is something else you need while you are here, don’t hesitate to ask one of our hundreds of volunteers for help. We are excited to have you here and want you to have a great experience.

And before you leave, don’t forget to takeour interactive campus driving tour so that you can get a feel for the campus of one of the state’s premier public universities.

Good luck – and enjoy your stay!
