High School to NAU Momentum Study Abroad<\/h2>\n

The High School to NAU MSA program is designed for out-of-state and Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) students entering NAU as incoming first year students. This 6-credit program allows incoming freshman to complete 3\u00a0general studies<\/a>\u00a0requirements and kick starts your college career. Following the Momentum Academics goals of the university, HSM will help students obtain 30 credits by the end of their first year. For\u00a0the cost of 6 credits of NAU in-state tuition<\/strong>, students will participate in an 8-10 day program in either Bali, Indonesia, Peru or Portugal (5% of your degree!)\u00a0including airfare from the major U.S. airport listed by program.<\/strong>\u00a0Students will purchase flights from their hometown to the connecting flight that leaves the U.S.<\/p>\n
