You can go home again.

Come celebrate Northern Illinois University’s 117th Homecoming, “Huskies Come Home!” from Oct. 13-20, on the NIU DeKalb campus. This week will include numerous Homecoming festivities and provide plenty of opportunities for you to celebrate your Huskie Pride!

Sign up for our Homecoming activities listed below and visit NIU's Homecoming landing page for details on University activities. 

Don't forget that Mission's Grove will begin three hours before kickoff against Toledo University at Huskie Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Game time will be announced 12 days prior. You can buy tickets to that game here. 

NIU’s Homecoming tradition is the oldest major-college tradition in the state and one of the longest-running in the country. We look forward to seeing you in October!
