Applying with other applications

Online

Pursuing an online degree means you get to select a semester-based course schedule, meet assignment deadlines, and pay tuition based on credit hours. For students pursuing a degree through our online programs, please fill out the online application.

Non-degree seeking

Apply as a non-degree-seeking student, as an undergraduate or a graduate, if you are not ready to apply to a degree program or you want to take classes for personal enrichment.

The application process for non-degree seeking students does not require a submission of transcripts or test scores.

Certificates

Undergraduate certificates

Apply directly for an undergraduate certificate program to enhance your skills and qualifications.

Graduate certificates

In order to enroll in a graduate certificate program, you must first apply for admissions to NAU Office of Graduate and Professional Studies (OGPS).

In addition to completing the online post-baccalaureate application, you’ll need to:
