From the Dean

Thank you for your interest in Northern Arizona University.

At NAU, we are committed to helping you achieve your educational goals. Through online and in-person classes throughout Arizona, NAU offers flexible and convenient degree, certificate, and endorsement programs. 

NAU has a long-standing history of incorporating the latest technologies to deliver programs.  Our programs are designed to meet the demands of today's competitive work environment across a variety of academic areas including Education and Counseling, Business and Administration, Health Professions, Computing and Technology, and more.

To complement our programs and better assist our students, we offer a wide range of support services. There are online resources to help students get information quickly. Students can request information, complete the online application process, enroll in classes, and more - all via the web.

For more personalized attention, students in Arizona can visit one of our 35 campuses. Students anywhere in the world can take advantage of our academic advising services, or simply speak with our Student Service Center for help.

The world is changing - and so is education. NAU has been providing higher education learning opportunities to students at a distance for over 25 years. While we are proud of our history, we realize we must continually evolve to meet the needs of our students by providing robust educational programs, delivery options, student support services, and resources that will prepare them to meet the challenges of working in a global economy.

I encourage you to learn more about the Extended Campuses of NAU.I think you'll discover the many benefits associated with being an NAU student and will learn why we say, "NAU is closer than you think."

Sincerely,

Fred Hurst

Senior Vice President, Extended Campuses
