Average Rating
The environment is very open and accepting, it gives everyone the opportunity to create a home. The curriculum is intense, however the instructors are more than equipt to teach college students, and willing to help outside of class. Overall, the University is absolutely life changing, and so far I've only spent a month there.
Monica from Glendale, AZ
NAU is for you if you love the outdoors but still want the university atmosphere. It offers opportunities for students interested in many things, from studying abroad to playing Quidditch in a league. In my opinion, NAU is a perfectly relaxed yet quality campus.
