New Incoming Students

Your first term enrollment at NAU begins by completing a Priority Enrollment (PE) profile. Your advisor will use this profile to evaluate your placements, transfer credit, and begin enrollment into your first semester’s classes.

Completing this quick module is a required step prior to attending an advising appointment. Please watch the videos, review the information, and complete the survey at the end. This module will teach you how to review your degree requirements and select classes.

Make an advising appointment to review and finalize your first semester’s schedule. We have Zoom, Phone, or In-Person options available.

Two notes when using the Appointment Scheduler:

1. Advisors add availability in 2 week increments, so check back if you don’t see a slot.
2. You can click on “show all” to see availability options for all First Year Advisors. While we encourage you to meet with your assigned Academic Advisor, you can meet with anyone from the First Year team!
