Campus Safety officers provide a highly visible and responsive security presence, with frequent patrols of and through the campus. Campus Safety will provide assistance during emergency and non-emergency situations, as well as escorts around campus, vehicle jump starts, room lockout, building access and other requests.  To reach the on-duty campus safety officer 24 hours a day/7 days a week, please call (630) 637-5911 or x5911 from any campus phone.

In order for students and guests to utilize the on-campus parking lots of North Central College, they must first obtain a valid academic year parking permit or visitor permit from the Department of Campus Safety. Without a valid parking permit, a citation may be issued for failure to display a permit.

At North Central, we believe that learning takes place both inside and outside the classroom. Living on campus gives you instant access to countless experiential learning opportunities. 

Commuter Student Services exists to help commuter students successfully acclimate to life at North Central. Throughout the academic year, you can expect a variety of programs and activities designed specifically to help you get to know the campus, make friends, and succeed academically.
