Thank you for your interest in Northern Arizona University. We take great pride in serving our military-connected students here at the University. Each and every day we get a chance to serve our students, helping them transition into the University setting. Our military-connected students bring a unique perspective and insight that helps make the NAU community a better place.
NAU has a long-standing commitment to fostering meaningful relationships among students and the University. The Department of Veteran and Military Services is committed to the same goal in how we communicate with our students, build our services, and support and challenge our students to succeed.
