Indigenous Connections to Success (ICTS)
What is ICTS?
The Indigenous Connections to Success (ICTS) program is a collaborative partnership between the Office of Indigenous Student Success (OISS) and the Center for Native American and Indigenous Futures (CNAIF) that serves self-identified Indigenous NAU students (Alaska Native, First Nations, Native American, Native Hawaiian, and all peoples who identify as Indigenous) from first-year to returning undergraduate students. The program aims to provide Indigenous students the opportunity to build social connections and awareness of resources for success.
Benefits of the 2026 program include:
- Access to helpful community resources
- Build friendships before classes start
- Connect with key mentors and staff/faculty
- Develop your support network
- Enjoy fun, interactive social activities
NAU Indigenous students attending the Flagstaff NAU campus are invited to this FREE program. Program participation is on a rolling basis for the academic year.
The pre-fall ICTS program was held on August 22 and 23, 2026, at the Center for Native American and Indigenous Futures (CNAIF, building #14). The academic year program will continue throughout the 2026-27 academic year with most events being held at the CNAIF.
Check on “Events” tab on the OISS homepage to see upcoming student events to participate in.
