Northern Arizona University Top Questions

What's unique about your campus?

Wesley

Since all of my classes are online learning, I would say that Northern Arizona University does a fantastic job of providing a solid learning experience online. In addition, all of my teachers are dedicated to providing me with the best learning experience.

Courtney

The best thing about NAU is the location and atmosphere. It is located in the most beautiful part of Arizona, where the weather is cool, and the environment is very green and clean. Everyone is very friendly around campus, including staff, and students; and it has a very laidback, outdoorsy feel to it. Off campus activities are abundant because it is surrounded by local restaurants, pubs, as well as mountains for hiking, biking, and snowboarding.

Maddison

The best thing about NAU is the small class sizes. Having less than 50 students in your class is a very great thing! It really allows for you to focus and participate in class. Not only that but you are able to really get to know your professors and make great connections in the class room. I am very happy with their class sizes.

Sydnie Marie

The best characteristic about my school is the environment. All the people I have talked to is so happy and content with Flagstaff and the campus. Flagstaff, even if you are away from home, it make you feel like you are home. The people in Flagstaff make you feel welcomed no matter what. It is very nice place to live and a very nice place to start your first years of college.

Bridgette

The best thing about my school is its initiative to keep its campus Eco-friendly. I am a strong believer in keeping a clean enviroment, not only for my generation, but for generations to come. I love the fact that my school cares about reducing carbon footprints and educating students on more than just their major choices.

David

The diversity and overall acceptance of different backgrounds on campus. The student body is relativley small so it is easy to become friendly with a lot of people on campus. Because you see the same students year after year in class, it is easy to develop strong educational relationships with some students.

Lanna

The best thing about my school is how supportive and helpful the advisors are at my community college I was always confused and was led into the wrong path.

Karianna

The school's transportation is really good and the buses run continously throughout the school week. Also, if you decide that you don't actually like your major, it is easy to change it to something else that you might be interested in.

Cynthia

The instructors, the location and the benefit of having the Extended campus location at Glendale Community College.

Rachel

The best thing about NAU is the small town and the friendliness of everyone in it. Coming from LA I'm used to everyone being rude and pushy all the time, but in Arizona everyone is so nice and patient and friendly. I love it!

Jonathan

I have yet to attend this school, but as of right now my favorite thing about the school is the environment. Being up in the mountains makes it a beautiful campus.

Alicia

The best thing about my school is the weather! Flagstaff has every season which gives a very diverse atmosphere as well as great people. Nau is in a small town and the people there are all great. Teachers are wonderful and the campus is georgeous! I love waking up every morning knowing I live in one of the most beautiful places in Arizona.

Kevin

The snow is amazing and this is a diverse school.

Ivy

My University works with its students to help you achieve your academic goals. They are forward thinking and work to provide a stimulating learning environment that encorporates all learning styles. I think this is important because it keeps things interesting and helps you to retain the information learned. They keep you focused and help you to not get distracted from your goals.

Ann

They offer extended campus program that is closer to my home. It allows studnets to stay in East Valley instead of going to physical campus in Flagstaff.

Samantha

The best thing about my school is it is a big school but it has the little school feel to it. It feels like you know everyone but if your looking to meet new people there certainly are plenty of them.

Alexander

The small town feel of Flagstaff is incredible. I love the feeling of our campus, because it seems to be so tight-knit. With central hubs like our union, the fieldhouse, and bookstore, it is difficult to walk to a class or meal without running into somone that you know. Northern Arizona University offers all of the emmenities of the typical college campus, without the hectic hussle and bussle that makes larger universities so difficult to navigate.

Allison

The best thing about my school is the atmosphere, its located in a small but not too small town with gorgeous sourrondings. I walk to class every morning looking up at a giant mountian, usually with snow at the top. The people at the school and in town are all very nice and chill people, which you don't always find in bigger schools. NAU is beautiful, good sized, nice people and all around a great experience.

Sara

I believe the best thing at Northern Arizona University is how they get everyone active in activitys. They even show the freshman all the activitys you can do to stay active here in the first week you are at school. They call this program freshman fushion. It was good made you feel good and productive. All these activities are all free too! So, it helped with meeting people and getting to know my enviorment.

Charlotte

The best thing about my school was my program. The educational program prepared me well for my career afterwards. I enjoyed the hands on assignments and projects. The professors were great. Not only dis they teach the curriculum but they were people too. The took an interest in your life and wanted to know who you were and where you were coming from. The environment was welcoming and positive.
