The Indiana University Northwest Athletic Program functions as an integral part of the academic and social environment within our university. We offer student-athletes an opportunity to continue their educational and athletic experiences at the intercollegiate level. RedHawks Athletics promote the development of individual leadership qualities and interpersonal skills in preparation for life beyond graduation. We are committed to recruiting student-athletes who value self-discipline, integrity, teamwork, commitment, and determination in both competition and in the classroom.

Effective fall 1998, the RedHawk Athletic Program became a member of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA). IU Northwest currently sponsors eight varsity sports: Men’s Basketball, Men’s Cross Country, Men's Golf, Men’s Soccer, Women’s Basketball, Women’s Cross Country, Women’s Soccer, and Women’s Volleyball. In 2019, the RedHawks became part of the Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference (CCAC) which competes nationally in the NAIA.
